Introduction

Kexi Mobile (aka Kexi Go! ;) is a project to bring the leading linux desktop database to mobile platforms, concentrating initially on Maemo/N900. MeeGo for phones and tablets goes next (on in parallel).

Application Ideas

QWidget Based...fixed size 800x480
To maximise screen estate, have navigation buttons down the left hand side
The rest of the screen is for applications pages. Pages are:
- File open page
- Project page listing project objects that can be opened (forms/reports)
- An 'active' object page
