Any input is much appreciated.
99% of correct coded QT apps will be compatible if they dont acces N900 hardware direclty.

Most of the Gtk+ apps to. Desktop Widgets will probadly not work cause of Hildon library not included in Meego.

The biggest issue is probadly the package manager is different so the developers need to repack packet to RPM instead of DEB packages.
