More Ideas and Proposal

• Cellular Setting UI: PIN query on/off, Network operator selection manual/automatic, Network mode selection
• See also N900 Ideas
• Call and SMS related apps should use launcher to start up fast (saves over 1s for MTF based apps). See: http://apidocs.meego.com/git-tip/mtf/launcher.html
  • At the moment not possible as the apps use derived Application classes, which is incompatible with the approach
