This is not a good way to start learning how to program. Programming is not easy and it takes a lot of time and dedication (not to mention an eye for detail). I'm not a programmer. But, I didn't come to this realization easily. I have been trying to learn Python for years (and have spent a lot of money on books). I still can't do it. I know enough now to be able to look through code and sort of understand what's going on, but... That also comes from years of designing around C, C++, Delphi, html, php, asp, ruby, etc. If you want to learn how to do some of these things, you need to be in it for the long haul. Don't just think that you'll be able to look at a website (like python.org) and know how to make applications for Maemo. I don't mean to be pessimistic about your intentions, but this is not something to be taken lightly. Tim
