Is there some sort of API for this? ie can I access the Tools and Settings - not necessarily <i>change</i> the settings, but at least view them, read-only... ;) Like Rocco asked in #2 above, what internal phone information can be accessed via these widgets?

ie can I access the Tools and Settings - not necessarily change the settings, but at least view them, read-only… ;)

In other words, can I apply a handheld stylesheet to my desktop widget and expect it to work in Mobile, or will it have to be rewritten? Can we make widgets compatible across mobile and desktop?

Here's a couple of questions: 1. How are Opera desktop widgets different from the ones you can put on your phone? i mean except the obvious differences in screen size, would it be possible to just use the desktop version of a widget and put it on a phone? 2. Which device APIs are accessible to a widget on my phone? can i e.g. get info about the CPU usage or remaining battery power? 3. How do you put these widgets on your phone? can you download them through the browser and/or install them directly using a data cable or Bluetooth? Thanks!

We cannot really test widgets with xmlhttp requests so I'm just hoping there is another way to go about this. I don't have a phone to test with either, haha.
