i think you're vastly overestimating both the pace of hardware advancement on 
handle devices (which, while impressive, is nowhere near what you suggest) 
and the amount of time it will take to get KDE on the system. he's already 
got it building and basically running, if not stable.

as i understand it, things like the wifi connection stuff are mostly dbus 
services, so it should be trivial to interface with it from outside of an X11 
env.

if one looks beyond just the nokia platform, it starts to make a lot more 
sense.
