If Qt /C++ can make apps look better and offer an easier development platform, which judging from demos they will, I'm all for it.

I really don't know why anyone would want to code in C in the year 2010.

This isn't 1995....

Let progress like the rest of the software development world.
Bling isn't everything. Me being able to change the theme is not worth anything if the system isn't stable on account of poor quality applications. Sad but true.

And when it comes to C being outdated, I'm sure them 100+ lines of C code commited into the main Linux kernel source tree every day is just 1995 all over again. Not to mention all the applications that form the base of everything you do on your N900 and on almost all other Linux based systems.

Ease of use is progress, bling is not.
