I can get fullscreen in KDE, but I can't seem to get any non-Hildon apps to go fullscreen on the Hildon desktop.

One of the coolest things about this method is that the clipboard (cut, copy and paste) works well between Word and the other apps running.

If anything is brittle, it is Word running under Wine. Just for the heck of it, I tried pasting a URL from MicroB into the "Insert Picture from File" dialogue box. Boom, huge crash.
