Need info on making "today plugin" for my app.

[hedphelym]

Hi,
I'm developing a simple application for my winmobile phone,
the application is to controll (for now) winamp with the phone.
(Also gonna add support for other apps).
I got tired of not being able to controll it from anywhere in my appartment,
so i started developing this solution.

Now i search some info on how to make a simple Today plugin for my app,
so that you don't have to have the full gui open all the time..
Anyone who has some good links for some tutorials?
(I code in c#)

Screenshots is attached.

If people here want's the apps, then let me know..

Today screen plugins can only be done in native code, so c++. But there is a wrapper for .net. Kinda old though.
