Perhaps I'm being misunderstood.  KDE is a totally different beast than 
Qtopia, I don't think it makes sense to try and port that myself, and I'm 
not trying to replace a toolkit or compare environments, what I'm trying to 
determine is if there is a realistic way to have our Qtopia based apps run 
on Maemo as an intermediate step to a native port so we can get our apps 
out quickly.
