Yes, nothing changed. I've been busy the past 2/3 weeks and it will probably the same for next couple of months.
A company offered me a project for the iphone so I'll sailor on that boat till summer then I will probably have more spare time to dedicate to the tablet (I found this customer using the projects I have here as a portfolio). It is a real shame that Nokia don't use more the Maemo comunity to recruit developers or at least give them a privileged path to job opportunities. The tablet niche seem to me like the most technical hardcore developers sector inside Nokia; keeping them in the basement and let the marketing people rules seem like a really bad idea.

nah, Im pretty agnostic ( I didn't even bought the Ithing: the customer 'borrow' all the pretty tools) and is mainly matter of learn new things and gain few bucks. Just feel sorry to leave all the started projects abbandoned on the road

But do let us know when/if you get to making any updates to this application. It really looks neat.

ok, I had a bit of time to dedicate to this lost sheep.
Some info:
I switched from the python+pygame to the c+SDL.
I realised that pygame is a pretty straighforward SDL bind for python so everything is conceptually the same but without the heavy python layer.
Im compiling everything on the tablet so I dont use any SDK/IDE and let me write code whereever I am.
Im a complete C noob so this could be a nice project to follow for whoever want begin to program the tablet (or any other c/sdl platform).
Im testing all the pieces Ill need for what I have in mind:

libsdl_image for the png/trasparencies support
libsdl-ttf for the ttf cont support
libsdl_mixer for the sound part
libsmpeg for the mp3 (ogg?) support

from first testing everything seem in place:



Ill see if Ill be able to cleanup a bit the code and post something usable somewhere before the middle of august
