'iPhone' type scrolling

I have seen some applications for the PPC (such as iContact [1]) that
try to emulate the scrolling effect that is demonstrated by Apple's
iPhone. I was wondering if it is possible to create such an effect
using managed code only (I'm developing with C# .NET on the CF 2.0),
or is this only possible using native code? I would like to recreate
this effect, but only if managed code can be used.

It seems HTC has done something similar with regards to the today screen and
the iPhone, see here: http://www.powerupmobile.com/product--246.htm

But regarding your question, it should be fairly simple to achieve the
iPhone scrolling type effect. You could look at the OnMouseDown OnMouseMove
and OnMouseUp events. It would mean creating your own owner drawn list using
GDI.

There are plenty of dicussions on owner drawn lists and GDI here:
