That there is the key. This is the reason you go with an open platform. Because, well, the apps - they just totally, like, compile & run.
So you mean like the Microbrowser and Firefox will one day be written in QT? What about the file manager, media player and etc? Will everything be in QT? What about the phone app. I'm still waiting for them to turn on the front camera for use with Skype. Will QT solve that?

Maybe QT solves the turn-by-turn maps problem. Great. I really need that (esp. outside the US) but what about the rest of the platform?

Yes I knew it wasn't perfect when I bought it but I think it is reasonable that we expect base functionality to improve and get stable. QT certainly isn't going to fix battery drain issues or improve the indexing on music.

Tell me I'm wrong. I'd be happy to hear that QT will solve all of those problems.
