It's rather unfortunate because Qt Quick is a rather promising framework for mobile development, it just needed a bit more polish.
The Symbian UI is really bad right now though, it actually defies many layers of common sense. The flagship Nokia N8, for example, still doesn't have a full qwerty keyboard in portrait mode. You have to rotate it to landscape mode in order to type, and the keyboard input takes up the entire screen.
I'm not really sure how that device managed to get shipped without such basic functionality in place, not to mention the fact that it is March 2011 and still not available.
- ramy_d 16y agoI totally second the Qt Quick comment, I tried recently and it's very pleasing, especially if you're comming from javascript development.
- bergie 16y agoBy the way, they just launched Qt Quick Components for desktop: http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2011/03/10/qml-components-for-desktop/ http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2011/03/10/qml-components-for-deskt... Should make app development a lot easier...
