The funny thing is that steps in the right direction like opening up
the hildon input framework and HE
where not pick up that well(IMHO...).This while we have screamed (and
thus decided that is was important) thing to do.
What you are saying that there is no path in between. we need
root at maemo.org , serial cables,and hardware specs!

That would be a very interesting experiment.
