Thanks.
At least the question is relevant!

To some extent I would suppose the answer is yes to both.

A 3D engine requires a rendering system to display. OGRE and the other frameworks discussed allow developers to reduce some of the tedium in getting graphics onto the screen.

The abstraction of how that rendering is used is another matter but is one of the building blocks.

My personal drive on this would be to drive the potential for simpler game creation on the N900 but not averse to other uses.

Hope that helps? @OP: Care to comment with your thoughts as it's your thread.
