Hi all As some of you may have already read on my blog[1], I was one of the lucky ones, who were selected to get a free Qtopia Greenphone development kit. When I applied I proposed to create a Qtopia based client for playing 4X space strategy games (all based on Thousand Parsec of course) and I never expected that people from Trolltech would select such an unusual application for a mobile phone. Well I guess I was wrong and so in the next few days I should be getting the kit and I will be able to start working on the client.
As I've read before programming for Qtopia based mobile devices shouldn't be that different from programming with Qt for desktop computers. Well I guess I'll see. If all goes well I should be able to reuse the C++ TP protocol library (libtpproto-cpp) and there should be a lot of code that could be shared with Qt4/KDE4 client (Parsek) for normal computers. As I said, we'll see. The deadline for submittion the client to Trolltech for evaluation (and rewards for the best ones) is 31 October 2007. So this means I'll have about 2 months to make something that works. Until I get the kit I'll read more about Qtopia development, think about how the user interface should look like and work (it is quite a challenge to design for a small screen), what would be a nice catchy name for the client. Anyways, this will be my very first time programming for a mobile device, so any help is much appreciated.
