SDK makes programming eeeasey peeeasey

Rock solid, heart touching, apparently

TINY LAPTOP maker Asus has released a Software Developer's Kit (SDK) for the Eee PC today.

The software allows third-party developers to write new applications and includes an Eee PC-compatible Open Circulation Edition of the Xandros Desktop OS, the Eclipse development environment, a Qt4 toolkit, a developer's guide, sample applications, and a multilingual VMware testing and debugging environment.

The SDK is based on the Eclipse development environment and includes TrollTech's Qt for interface design. Asus is also supplying VMWare-compatible code to allow authors to create a virtual Eee on a high-spec machine, to develop and test code there before porting it to the sub-notebook itself.

Asus say they have released the kit in response to "thousands of source code downloads" from commercial developers and the open source community. µ

Dimdows version?

Are they releasing an SDK for the Dimdows Eee as well? Not fair, otherwise!
