13. Things to consider

14. Things to consider Hildon UI Style Memory and performance Small differences

15. Hildon UI Style Small, high DPI touch screen Stylus, thumbs, a few hardware keys Virtual keyboard, handwriting recognition Only one application window at a time Limited memory, storage and CPU No wobbly windows... http://www.maemo.org/community/UI_Style_Guide_Summary_1.0.pdf

21. Memory and performance “64M ought to be enough for 770”

22. Memory and performance Single instance Bonobo vs. D-BUS State saving, power management Heavy gtkrc: Nokia 770: 5529 lines, 460 images Clearlooks: 136 lines Grand-Canyon: 777 lines

23. Small differences .desktop files Debian packaging GStreamer Connectivity MIME types and URI schemes Backup
