The Bergamot Project - Open Source for UIQ
The Bergamot Project produces high quality free and open source software for the UIQ mobile phone platform used by Sony Ericsson and Motorola.
At the moment the interesting stuff is the Escarpod Podcatcher and Swim, an automatic SyncML trigger.
Call For Help
We would be very grateful for any help with the UIQ projects. The day only has 24 hours, and what with working and sleeping and drinking beer there is not much time to spend. If you want to help out in any form, please send an email to bergamot@googlegroups.com or join the Bergamot discussions directly.

Active Projects
This is stuff we work with at the moment.
Future Project Ideas
There are many programs that need to be written for or ported to UIQ. Some ideas that come to mind are:
- A port of S60 Internet Radio (as part of Escarpod?)
- Archive manager for zip, rar etc.
- SymTorrent for UIQ
- UIQWebKit - a port of S60 WebKit to UIQ.
- IM client for MSN, ICQ, AIM etc.
- iPhoneish SMS bubble chat (kinda stupid, but people seem to like it)
- E-book reader
- A decent media player
