Yeah, I'm currently developing and working on it in every free minute I have. The last time on Friday night (worked on a possibility to display remote controls and screenshot at the same time)
I began the development some Months ago and have now mostly everything working. I still need to add more remotes, have to work on some design parts and the status icon (transfer status).
I guess I would need 3 more weekends before it is ready for a first release. So stay tuned.
Ah, and with MeeGo I hope you mean the Nokia N9. A Symbian release is also planed (was hard to make the remotes completely scalable across different resolutions). A release for MeeGo tablet is not planed and I will think later if it is easy to backport DreamRemote 2.0 to the N900. Thought about it already but never tested if it could work (many qml Components used)

What Dreambox have you bought?

I have currently support for DM7025 and DM800 implemented. I will add the support for others before the release.

I thought already about creating a small youtube video with the current status of the development to get some feedback for the user interface. But I failed with the first try and I'm not sure if it is wasted time or not. A video is still only a video. Nothing compared to real testing and I don't want to set myself under presure. I'm afraid to release it to early and with to many bugs.
There is still a lot to do and I want a perfect working application. I don't want to get immediately a bad feedback because of a early beta status.

Perhaps I will release a working beta but with some limitations. I need to sell it later for a small amount of money at the ovi store. And if a full functional beta is working great I'm afraid nobody would buy my creation.
I hope you will be fine with a version you have to pay for. But in my current situation I can't work on Software totally for free.
