As Notecase is a GTK application it will not run under Opie.
Portabase is a bit tricky to build so I believe nobody did it include in Angstrom yet. However the recipes are there.

Ah, thanks for the infos. For Portabase I found on this page

http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/OpiePackages (http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/OpiePackages)

the info

Works in .stable, to be added to feed

but I don't know where ".stable" is ...

regarding Notecase:

Any clue how much effort it is to port it to Opie?

regards

The same effort it would take to port a native Windows application to GNOME/KDE or GNOME to KDE.

The GUI concepts between Opie and GPE both are totally different so it would not make much sense to do a port.
