The only source I could find that could establish notability was a book review by [[Steve Litchfield | http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/reviews/item/book_review_mobile_python.php]] -- since multiple independent reliable sources must provide in-depth coverage, this doesn't establish notability. If removing this PROD, please add sources to the article that would establish notablity (the Litchfield source would be fine, but one more is needed).
