which graphics api to use?

I'm developing a 2-D application with Windows CE 4 for pocket pc which will need rotation and possibly alpha blending. What graphics api should I be using? Is GAPI difficult to learn?
thanks

How bout this:

if you're working on ppc or smart phones there are no devices which implement direct x and GAPI is a low level interface thats no fun to use unless you're into that kind of stuff.

Yes,

Gapi-Draw should get the job done for you. We looked at it but decided not to use it simply because it is quite hard to get a handle on but if you can overcome that then you will have one heck of a tool at your disposal.

Hope this helps,
