Concurred; it's definitely possible, but it'll eat so much battery that nobody's really likely to write one.

well i am giving it a try with python and gtkhtml2. battery life will be an issue, since i remember the rss live scrolling reader in the desktop slowed the NIT and drained the battery.
maybe we can add some code not 2 render if not visible or something...

Great
Again, it's just web code and stuff; there is nothing inherently "windows" or "vista" about it.

Hi,

I'm explainaing why home applet with html and javascript is a bad idea :
HTML need a html renderer : gtkhtml so about 10 Mo of RAM. And could be slow and drain battery. Of course render can be desactivated when the applet is hide.

I ll take a look to do it one short, but i still need to finish other things before.
(as uploading to diablo repository all my other applet :) )
