What do people think?

It's a sound idea if you don't have the time to invest thoroughly into the project (or you're simply losing interest or creative direction!) At the very least - a documented closed-source library, a simple open-source app to utilise the lib, and some method of contacting you to add extensions to it would be beneficial if you're worried about source release.


Is it cool enough to help show off our nokias?

I've not seen scrolling done as smoothly as you've implemented - from a pure eyecandy perspective - it's definitely worth showing off I was also surprised with how useful the sketch application looked when you combine all the notes together! I think it's cool


Could it be used for other things?

Not sure what your library does tbh - what does it accelerate or draw to the screen? I see smooth scrolling text, a simple GUI, and a starfield - is it a fast pixel buffer? Could you write to it like a pixel buffer? Is it faster than SDL? If so it'd be useful for everything, emulators at a start, speedy Deluxe Paint type applications, Power Goo type apps, the start of a software 3D library, etc, etc

What would you like to see rendered this way?

The above - can you show off scrolling bitmaps, how about a smooth 2D bitmap transform on a set of CD covers (ala Apple Cover Flow.)
