Nice app. Much cleaner and easier to use than the built in N900 calculator. Thank you.

Nice app, much better than the built in calc imo. One question, is there a way to keep the color picked when opening from the last session instead of having it always reset to orange?

Why won't use hildonize this to follow user's theme's buttons & colors? No offence, but those buttons looks kind of ugly to me :/
Would love D-livil to supply some nice buttons, dont forget that we have nice lights also when button is pressed, would love designer to supply those as well, 140x75 pngs

Is there anything that can be done, or is this based on some framework that will always take this long to load? Mine takes 5-6 seconds to start even on subsequent launches, which is a lot longer than 0 seconds.
Granted that the built in calc (or parts of it) might stay resident in memory all the time and have a huge benefit from that...
Sadly we are constrained by Python startup times (script based language). There might be some optimisations that can be done on the Qt CSS styles which I will try some experiments for the 2.0 release.

Sure I can draw you buttons. I suppose if I make them black they will fit into any color scheme somehow.

Blue should be injected by making font on those buttons be blue. I wouldn't put the blue color on the button graphics.
