Hello!

I was wondering if anyone had considered creating an application to replace/augment the current Maemo dialer to add smart dial functionality. For those who don't know what smart dial is, it allows you to "T9 your contacts". For example, to dial Home, you would dial 4663 and tap the contact "Home" that appears.

This functionality is present on all current Windows Mobile phones, many HTC Android devices, as an app (nubdial) for non-HTC Android devices, and is available as an addon to the iPhone.

If no one has considered creating the app, then consider this post differently- I will gladly write this app, but as I am not an experienced Qt or C++ programmer, I will need some volunteers to help me. Currently, I have part of the GUI laid out in Qt designer, I now need to create a few of the custom widgets for displaying the contacts and code the actual search routine. This shouldn't be too hard, I just need help.

Any takers?
