Yes, you are right. However, with the exception of Wikipedia, which has an excellent mobile site, all the other "clients" offer a superior experience to using the mobile version of the site. For example, try using mobile Gmail for awhile and compare it to Android's native Gmail app -- no comparison. Same applies to Kayak, Wego, Amazon, etc.

It's bizarre/infuriating but it's often tragically true... >.>

Not mobile site... web service. Those are different things.
*email is hybrid, at least if speaking from IMAP
**MeeGo example would be services that use ShareAPI (Dropbox to get content up there) vs service integrations that need a client base (FilesPlus for managing Dropbox files)

Depending on how various companies have made their APIs, its quite possible for any mobile OS to not need a client at all, but to just utilize that API to create the controls and the access to the content that's needed.

IMO, a platform built in the last 3yrs should do that. Relying on clients is a crutch mobile has picked up from PCs, its not exactly the right way forward - at least not for those platforms/ecosystems that espouse openness.

I would love to see if the chikka messaging app could be integrated into the messaging app.

Hi mate,

will go through these and update my list (character limit pending!) today.
As detailed, I would consider many of these to be requests that could be handled through API inclusion within existing core Os application functionality, and based on this, a number of your suggestions might be better off sitting in the "functionality" thread elsewhere.

They would also need to be OK with us doing that, on whatever terms they dictated.

That having been said: I don't think anyone would stop you from messing with something like this yourself. Quite the opposite.
Would the same solution apply to the steam chat plugin created for Pidgin? and usable by telepathy

A good oscilloscope, multimeter, signal generator touch based front-end!..., may be port, which is already there in the DSO Nano project!
Scrolling and zooming the waveforms by touch would be cool!

It would be wonderful to have an oscilloscope & its probe hidden behind the other half!

The answer I got:

"for implementing a share plugin and a service specific UI, good starting point would be: https://github.com/nemomobile/transfer-engine/blob/master/doc/src/index.qdoc"

I finally started messing with the Sailfish SDK yesterday. MusiKloud is almost complete (haven't looked into event-feed integration etc). Screenshots are available at http://marxoft.co.uk/musikloud/sailfish/. I'll be starting on cuteTube tomorrow.
