I haven't done much programming yet on my Nokia n810, but a lot of the community software for it is written in Python. Google for "n810 python" or "maemo python" and you'll find plenty of hits. The OS is a Debian Linux variant called Maemo 4 (chinook), the gui is something called Hildon which sits on top of GTK. Here are videos and screenshots of something that is implemented largely in Python: http://openbossa.indt.org/canola/ and from another page on that site: > Canola uses and contributes (when possible) with the following > components : > > * Python as main development language > * Atabake as media engine > * LMS as media scanner > * EFL for drawing, thumbnails and UI scripting > * We also created all the required bindings to enable python to > use EFL; get them here > * Components licensed under GPL/LGPL such as Canola daemon and LMS > > We also encourage and promote the use of Python and EFL for rich UI > applications that require increased performance and flexibility over > today's available SDL or Pygame.
