Re: Brainstorm: Porting maemo to other devices instead

Well Droid 3 is ideal-ish as it's an OMAP 4 (so the Pandaboard stuff should be reasonably close), however as it's a Motorola phone, it's probably not so easy. In addition it's not available in the UK...

Re: Question about QtSDK's 'publish to extra' feature
