I don't know about qpsword, but there is available
another app, which I wrote, for PDA's running Opie,
called Dagger. It probably would run on Qtopia if the
appropriate Opie libs are installed as well.  It and
sword are available in the feed for the current
version of OpenZaurus (3.5.1) for Sharp Zaurus PDA's
and will be available in the next version of Familiar
linux (0.8) for iPaqs.  It works fine with the new
KJV.

I've been meaning to put up a webpage for Dagger and
make a formal announcement about it, but just haven't
gotten around to it yet.
