I like the variants of Mermaid. I'd avoid Mermaid itself because you want something unique that doesn't get lost in Google amongst Little Mermaid discussions. You want people to be able to find it easily in a search. My favorite is Quim's original Mermate, but with Meermate as close second. Naming is hard :) Dawn _______________________________________________ MeeGo-handset mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-handset
