I don't believe what you're seeing in the SDK is what will be released in Maemo 5. They're releasing just enough to let you develop to the new UI API. I believe there's lots of whiz-bang that they won't reveal until the last second.
still, there is a calendering api in there now (closed source).
add the other stuff and im thinking location aware services and ovi integration, maybe including a calendar that can understand gps...
meh, im going to give mer a spin ones maemo4 gives up its ghost, and use my N800 til it fatally breaks...

Here is a picture of Mauku running on Maemo 5 Fremantle (alpha). Pressing full screen button hides the window title bar. Dialogs are appearing on the bottom of the screen (like homemade dialogs in Mauku already before Fremantle).

Thanks Henrik! I think this is the first Maemo 5 screenshot not coming from Nokia.
If you could drop a few lines somewhere about your first impressions porting Mauku to Fremantle, that would be great.
Same request to other developers getting their hands dirty with this Maemo 5 Alpha SDK. And keep posting/linking here your screenshots (or screencasts!). Thanks!

If you are still talking about the Maemo 5 UI, what is missing is mostly described in the release notes:
- Desktop edit mode
- Status area
- Task switcher
If you are talking about something else, please explain.

I have a feeling that the task switcher is going to have some serious whiz-bang (see the quote from the Unwired View article in my post above). Is that coming in the beta SDK or is that something that will be revealed at the very end? It looks like we won't see it before the hardware is released:
EDIT: Sorry, I reread my previous post above, and it sounds like I believe you're going to change the UI. I just believe you've only revealed the bare bones, enough to get people developing without "wrecking the surprise" as it were

Task switcher is not present in this release either. Hence you can only run one application at a time from the UI. The final release will, however, include the task switcher.

Known limitations
- On Debian Lenny (x86 scratchbox target), the response time of actions on using the UI framework is known to be high.
