Here’s what Windows Mobile (and the much hated MSM7200 SOC) can do when coded right:
Here’s what Silvermoon is:
Project Description
.NET Compact Framework 2.0/3.5 Control library
that uses OpenGL for rendering.
This is the first beta release of Silvermoon, a collection of windows mobile compact framework 2.0 controls to build modern user interfaces with transitions, alphablending and other effects.
Silvermoon requires hardware support for open gl and expects the libGLES_CM.dll to be available. However, in the source code is a software rendering replacement available, but this is really not recommended, unless you want to deal with 0.3fps instead of 25fps!
The beta version works with a resolution of 192dpi, which is the standard for actual mobile phones. (192dpi are used with resolutions of 480×800, 480×640 or similar, while 96dpi is used for resolutions of 240×400).
However, it also works with 96dpi but it is not yet optimized and needs alternative images to fit for smaller resolutions.Silvermoon was developed (and being in progess to be in development) on a Sony Ericsson X1 phone.
