When implementing the GUI, there's always small bits of integration work
that needs to be done, like assigning the keypress events with a
user-visible key or application. There's also small driver / userspace
integration. Someone needs to do those things for Opie and the hx4700.
They are already done for GPE (and we're working on those things for
Qtopia 2.1.2).
