Here is a good article to read at
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb278112.aspx

Here is a sample of the article...
Note that this also applies to Mobile 6
"With the release of Windows Mobile 5.0, there are a number of new
technologies designed to aid application development and create a wide
variety of content for the entire spectrum of devices. In particular, there
are two new technologies that have been added to the Windows Mobile 5.0
application suite: Microsoft Direct3D Mobile and Microsoft DirectDraw. Each
of these graphics technologies have been designed to provide the application
developer with a powerful, fully featured alternative to the current
high-performance GAPI. "

There is a microsoft.public.pocketpc.developer newsgroup, that is visited by
folks more likely to have insight into this sort of question.
