The normal builds make Windows Mobile ‘think’ the app is HI_RES_AWARE and so QVGA screens (see geometry setting in winrdesktop.ini) are NOT scaled to the larger screens of current devices:

The first plugin is very simple. An user control that just shows some static text (see the lower info on the screen shot):
