I hope so, soon. I have an Orange SPV e100 (also known as HTC Tanager/QTek 7070) and it's running on a very old Windows Smartphone 2002 OS.

I wish it could run Linux, even if not KDE. :D

Theres no way a mobile device could or would run KDE or Gnome. I think most of them just use the kernel and build their own proprietary firmware around it.

also, palm and palmsource use gnome. motorola use qt (ie qtopia). don't know about sharp, panasonic, and the others. i know that nokia is a big supporter of open source, and there have been hints of them switching from symbian to linux with their s60 interface....or maybe not. motorola does lots of linux phones and smartphones, but they have crippled their smartphones by not allowing them to be hacked so easily. this is because they(or rather, the operators don't) don't want users to put skype and other such applications on their phone.
