Hey that got me to thinking: now that Nokia owns TrollTech, wouldn't they 
donate devices? I mean surely! They can afford it. KDE is the biggest user of 
QT, right (maybe I'm wrong here)? Wouldn't it be to Nokia's benefit to help 
KDE devs a little in a case like this? I can see the press release:

NOKIA'S ENTIRE LINE OF PHONES NOW KDE COMPATIBLE

phones to have their products certified KDE compliant. The entire Nokia 
family of cell phones is now able to synchronize with complete functionality

Yeah you get the point.

Isn't there some chief in the KDe tribe who has contacts as TrollTech? Could 
someone at TrollTech ask for hardware on the KDE developer's behalf? I mean
