is there any application that uses qtmobility for pim at all? (there was maybe 
the meego tablet mail client but that is going back to evolution data server 
afaik)

well, thumbnails would be quite important for visualizing, no?

i would really, really love you test that on meego somewhere, because there is 
a pretty impressive array of problems with nepomuk that happens only in meego 
and nowhere else, and i have no idea what to do about them (to name few, 
strigi indexing not starting automatically, queries failing when the same 
works fine on the desktop, queries that have to be done two times to work)

another suspect i have is nepomuk breaking with the mobile profile

now, to test it on meego, a live image is being done every week now, and that 
can be tested or installed in a virtual machine as well (boots in kde, so no 
hard requirement of opengl)
