And sewcondly for those who have used an app earlier there are working material yuo have that you can not move to other apps easly.
So as always inthe best of world we wold have had one OS for all computer related machines and one good app for each thing we do. Now we have NOT! so we are stucked to try to fit many things together.
The power of platforms such as Sword isn't in the application itself being ported to any platform, but the content. Applications such as Rapier and Katana are designed to being that content to this specific platform, and as they mature, offer features or usability that is comparable with the e-sword on (physically) larger platforms.

In respect to that view, what exactly are you looking for from e-Sword that you would like to see on your Maemo device? And then having stated what it is you are looking for, would you be apt to assist in the development, testing, etc. of such a feature if it indeed works best on a handheld device (and not already in the queue to be added)?
