As a Zaurus user now using the N810 - I do miss the KDE PIM suite opn the Zaurus - Kopi /Kapi in particular. The GPE PIM suite is far sub-standard compared to KoPi (Calendar) and Kapi (Contacts).

Another useful app to have is the password manager (Pwm/Pi). I am suing the password safe for the OS2008, and while that is good, is not as easy and useful as the Zaurus equivanlent.

Of the closed source apps from the Zaurus world, - I will certainly back (and buy) the Textmaker and the spreadsheet (hancomsheet) equivalent if they do develop one for the Nokia IT also. The TKC apps were also pretty - some of them useful too - like tkcFTP for me.

Another thing I miss is a good RSS reader for the Nokia. While the inbuilt one is not too featured, I guiess I can wait for Canola to maybe fill in the gap in this regards. But Corsair from the Zaurus world was a good RSS app - with podcast support too.

In the media world - photo viewer and Audip player - the Nokia softwares excel - like Kagu, the image viewer, Quiver and of course waiting for Canola.

I wouldnt want to replace the N810 browser with Netfront though. While Netfront was good for its time, there hasnt been much changes to it since then. The Nokia inbuilt browser is certainly far better.

As a last request - the TreeExplorerQT on the Zaurus was a very advanced File manager - which would be good to have on the Nokia also.

So much for the Zaurus to Nokia requests from me.
