<p>I'm designing a user interface for a large touchscreen device running Linux.  What would be the best toolkit/developer kit/SDK to use?  The only requirement is that its able to run on a semi-low performace device, and that there is a Linux version.</p>

<p>Nice-to-haves would be build in support for effects/animations and a modern look-and-feel, but they are not necessary.</p>

<p>I'm looking at Adobe Flex/AIR already, but I'm not sure if the device will meet the minimum specs.</p>
