I would guess you're familiar with the Wacom Cintiq products? These are tools for photographers, designers, etc to draw directly on an LCD using touch sensitive pens? If not, you should look into them if you like working this way. These are tablet PCs so not open source, they're big, bulky, etc. But as hardware gets faster, smaller this may approach Nokia Tablet size.

There used to be a program called Horizon (that was Gimp-based AFAIK) for the 770. I don't think anyone ported it forward but it was a pretty functional graphical editor with an "infinte" canvas.
It wasn't based on Gimp in any way, AIUI.

Well, I've come to some idea. Though actual graphic edit is not serious on the Tablet, but ->Photo<- editing (RAW import, correction, preview) is much more realistic and appreciated. In fact, with USB Host and much space to handle, Tablet can be transformed into great photobank with absolutely no competitors. Just a thought

What about a InDesign kind of editing program? That would be very, very neat. Especially with a touchscreen, it would be quite usable, if it could work anyways...

Now, I know that no one will ever get a full GIMP or, God help us, even Photoshop on a tablet in the near future...

However, by design the toolbars were meant to be hidden when
you don't use them (toggled by the back button, for example).
One could also switch to non-transparent buttons whenever the
canvas is moved on the screen.
many dependencies .. that wouldn't matter if it were modular enough.
Is there someone here who can judge that? I skipped through the
blog of one of the Gimp developers, he mentioned his interest in
maemo. I might ask him for some advice.
I will try compiling it on os2008, maybe I'll get it to work.
