'stable' means probably more stable and phone-like than the alternatives. Qtopia still suffers from low level bugs in the kernel since it shares that with the other images, including suspend/resume problems. It also has bugs of its own, but if you report them they should get fixed. IIRC Lorn has suggested that 4.4.x was released with more bugs than they would have liked, so if you can live without some of the added features you may prefer 4.3.x for the moment. > 2) > Is it possible to import and export the addressbook in VCard format?

The Openmoko 2008.8 and 2008.9 releases use X11, the enlightenment window manager, and the X11 version of Qtopia 4.3 apps for phone and addressbook functions. This means that it can run onthe X11 apps, unlike the pure Qtopia images. > 4) > The Qt Desktop is only compliant with Qtopia 2 and the Sync Agent is for > Outlook only, as I understand.

The Qtopia sync protocol is documented and open, but AFAIK nobody has written the required plugin. > Thanks in advance :-) > > Kind regards > Jette _______________________________________________ support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
