QT for S60 announced!

Paul.Todd | 20 October, 2008 17:11

Trolltech have announced it at last, though no suprise if you are on the Carbide 2.0 beta.

The demos look pretty cool as well.

Dang Paul, you beat me to this story...
The video in here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qhba1lhBllM shows Qt running on 3 different smartphone platforms (yeah, yeah, the link is available on the Qt labs blog post as well...)

For me, this video is actually the first time that I see QT for S60, and my first impression has actually been - somewhat skeptical.

The reason is that apart from the cool "cover flow" style effects (here's hoping that these will work on keypad-only phones as well...) the actual UI examples appear to depart quite a long way from the "Style Guide" for S60 application so far. So even though this makes portability of applications from other platforms easier, it may on the flipside lead to a further fragmentation of the user interface on the device.

As far as I understand, QT is quite strongly based on the notion of declarative UI, so there may be a chance of final applications looking more S60-ish. Until then, the idea of "tabbing" through a series of slides, buttons etc. just seems out of place on a UI where most of the native apps are built around screens of usually very straightforward lists of choices.

[Disclaimer: I am somewhat biased from working on our TALKS screen reader, whose users depend on consistency in application UIs probably more than most, so I am quite sensitive to introduction of new control frameworks that may work with a certain form of interaction, but do not translate well to other modalities and form factors...]
