Yes, you're right coding is fun, and unpaid coding after midnight is always 
best, even in the absense of 'exotic technical assistants' :)..
 
Sorry for sounding a bit grumpy, but people have emailed me in the past 
asking about whether the qt java bindings run on Qt embedded, but I haven't 
been able to port the code, and try it out. You don't need cross-compilation 
if you can compile to Qt java byte codes and run everywhere (working WORA). 
It might take up twice as much memory as native C++, but that might been ok 
tradeoff for custom applications.
