KDE 4.4 Introduces Netbook Interface

Yesterday the availability of KDE Software Compilation 4.4, "Caikaku", was announced. This new release comes with several new features including a netbook interface that is designed for ergonomic use on small computers:

The Plasma Netbook shell features a full-screen application launcher and search interface, and a Newspaper which offers many widgets to display content from the web and small utilities already known from Plasma Netbook's sibling.

Moreover, Plasma introduces social networking and on-line service features, grouping windows in a tabbed interface, the KAuth Athentication framework and with the upgrade to Qt 4.6 support for the symbian platform, a new animation framework, multitouch and better performance.
