There are already several kde apps that use 'microkde' sources as a go between Qtopia/Qt and kde. Unfortunately there are several versions of 'microkde' sources as well. But these use Qt Embedded, and since there is X server on this (unless you ran these apps in qvfb - which could be modified to be 'windowless'), one would need to use Qt-x11, which rules out Qtopia (and Opie for now). > > Also, KHTML + KPIM + KOffice would be a great offer for those that > > want productivity + conectivity.
