I found this project just now, it's called OpenMoko. They're working on creating a Operating System for phones that's completely open source. I think it's pretty cool. And once it gets out of alpha/beta, I'll probably buy one of the supported phones.

Check it out here, http://www.openmoko.org/

I just thought it looked really cool.

I'm working on rewriting/updating the code for a command line app that allows the user to change the screen resolution of the computer they are working from. I plan on adding a GUI interface to it, unfortunately, the original code, from the Res application by Meme Code, released under the LGPL, uses EnumInputDevices() and the built in function in Visual Studio 6.0 is missing some necessary symbols, so i recieve an error message each time. Does anybody know where I can find the updated and working .lib file that contains this function?
