I already mentioned that it's v0.1 and the icons are all hardocded, it's open source though, you can easily change the icons and compile it.
As for communication, although we might not be talking about the same thing, we have something in mind for the coming months.

Since it's a phone, has IM/SMS & email, I don't have much problem contacting anyone in the world who I want to speak to ;-)

Let the speculum begin! (sorry, speculation)
Look forward to trying this out later - thanks once again.

Oh and I forgot to mention something, there's a Qt class in there that sends a signal when the screen's locked and has a boolean that returns true if the screen's locked, might be useful for other Qt devs out there (since this isn't available from Qt Mobility for some reason...)

Well, there's an always-on proximity sensor on the N900 (yes, it's always on, whether in use, or not), so why not put it to use
It's activated by holding the proximity sensor for 1.2s, and of course, this is configurable, just edit /home/user/.config/MohammadAG/mediabar (hey, it's not my fault QSettings uses "Organisation names" as the config directory
(V0.3) Hold the mediaplayer icon to show mediaplayer controls:
Might be more of a proof of concept for now, as the icons can't be changed, for now. Patches of course welcome
Thanks to Venemo for getting Qt Mobility code in it, however, I have went back to using proximityd and made Qt Mobility code available for non Maemo 5 devices, the reason for this is because QtM Sensors uses 7-17% of the CPU and keeps it at 500MHz, eating battery life.
Anyway, this should be very light on the battery, as the proximity is always active.
Thanks to nicolai for the Qt MAFW wrapper (that's also being used in the FOSS mediaplayer).
Package name is MediaBar (mediabar for apt-get)
Source on gitorious: http://gitorious.org/mediabar/mediabar
Due to the nature of an unpatched hildon-desktop, this will not work in the Task manager and the task launcher and hildon-desktop will just capture the click itself.
Enjoy
