So I've got my paws on a spare cisco 7970G (a IP phone with a rather ncie colour touch screen supporting XML apps.

So, with no knowledge of programming (ok, well a little bit of c# a while back and all consuming knowledge of IOS) i want to put that screen to good use.

specifically i want, the cricket score, the weather, news headlines and new emails in my gmail mailbox would be nice

does anybody have any pointers in the right direction??

I know the directory on one of these phones can be pulled from a .xml on a web server with a relatively simple format so it can't be rocket science, also cisco claim you could write an application to check stock levels and reserve items for this phone, so the capability must exist.

can't be too hard can it?

any help very much appreciated!
