system wide hook

Hi,

I come from a win32 background. I wish to 'catch' keystrokes using a system
wide hook.
On win32 this was done by making a dll which is loaded automatically into
memory space of all apps, and can catch all WM_KEYDOWN messages, block them
or pass them on.

Will the same method work on Smart Phone (eg. Windows Mobile 5.0) platform?
Any online references on this subject?
