I notice that prism is available in the Ubuntu repositories. It isn't exactly embedded, but it is a stripped-down browser window designed for web apps...

browserd is running all the time... That's actually the point.

Thanks, Bundyo. Of course.

I'd hit the "Thanks" button, but you mistakenly thought this was an off-topic thread.

It is off-topic I don't see web runtime widely adopted at least on the current tablets. Web widgets are heavy no matter if the daemon is running all the time or not.

Bundyo, i think it s doable on current device,take a look at webkit. The result is more and more better on our device.

Well, you can ask more directly from timeless, but the infra should be in place to be able to handle yahoo, nokia, dashboard, google and some other widgets as well. I think the missing component is the widget installer (which should be pretty easy to make if you know what to do - ask timeless).

"Web Runtime" is one of those terms that might tell different things to different people. As an example, for S60 it means http://www.s60.com/life/thisiss60/s6...res/webruntime

Please define "that".

Should I file a bug for it?
It always helps to have a focused dialog and get a convenient notification as soon as it's officially resolved.

By the way, have you tried asking about a possible Maemo Web Runtime to your preferred Internet search engine?

Interesting stuff...

Just for fun i pointed my N810 at http://widsets.mobi/library it's not what you would call functional but you can get something showing up on the home screen.

Now to work out how to uninstall these things...

And this is what we're talking about here. "Web Runtime" in the Nokia trademarkey sense.

Yes, see the links above. Most relevant are the Forum Nokia and Urho's interview ones.

Those of you interested on what comes next should have a look to http://www.nokia.com/imaginemaemo more frequently. At the moment there is a position open for a (Senior) SW Engineer, Web Runtime SDK.

Of course this is no guarantee of having such runtime in an official release but if there are positions open...
