It seems to perform quite well running on FreeBSD and using my Solaris 
10's X11 server.  Startup time is a bit long but that is typical for 
starting Qt or Gtk+ apps remotely.

Solaris 10 actually comes with a Java based stand-alone calendar 
application.  It is called a "preview".  It looks pretty decent but 
unfortunately it does not quite work.  I assume that development 
ceased on this application and it will be dropped from Solaris.
