Please ignore the GPS comment in my last post! I just looked at the Wiki and read the entry about the GPS Hammerhead chip! RTFM.... or in this case, RTFW....

Thank you so much for the update! I was frantically searching for HW since i heard it would be available in March and thought i was missing out. Glad to know i didn't miss the boat! This is also my first post to the list - i've been reading as many as i can since joining about a week ago. Also hoping to be of service to the community! I skimmed a thread regarding GPS in the phone - I haven't looked up the datasheet for the chipset being used, but I know many GPS chips spout NMEA-183 messages. I have some old C routines i wrote about 10 yrs ago for parsing NMEA-183 protocol - if anybody thinks they'd be of use i can dust 'em off and submit them. Thanks again for setting up such a fantastic project! --clayton On 4/24/07, Sean Moss-Pultz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Community, > > We owe you all an update as to our status.
