Faults Or Features?

Qtopia 2.1 is the newest from trolltech..(the sharprom is Qtopia 1.5, opie is supposedly Qtopia 1.7 done on a newer compiler)  very pretty, snappy works well and some cool features (like fullscreen handwriting)

Actually no, Opie like the Sharp software is derived from Qtopia 1.4 and developed independantly with occaisional merges of useful code from newer Qtopia releases. Also, as far as I know opie has no support for full screen handwriting recognition.

_Originally_, Opie was forked from Qtopia 1.4
Opie has a few patches from both qtopia 1.5, and 1.7, and 2.1

You can't really say it is derived from 1.4

Yeah, but it's also missing quite a bit of the newer libs like the qtopia pim api and iirc all of libqtopia, so it seems a bit safer to call it a 1.4/1.5 series than a 1.7 or 2.1

No, Qtopia 2.1 has fullscreen handwriting support. ( I thought that at least was readable)
Thanks for the clarification on the opie fork-- I really was unsure about it ( I hardly ever use opie)
