No excuses left Nick. Seems that you have to write a wefi clone :)
Looks like it. ;) Actually, I was thinking something more OpenMoko specific - a sort of enhanced PIM that lets you store locations and contacts (and contacts with locations) side-by-side, and a corresponding API so other bits can take advantage of the data (like the aforementioned muting-when-entering-cinema stuff). The other idea for a 'killer mobile gps app' that occurred to me is some sort of dynamic-flash-mob system, where you can express interest in various activities, and it'll detect whenever a 'critical mass' of people for a given activity are close enough together and buzz them all. Imagine walking past a stranger and suddenly your cellphones buzz to let you know you're both interested in a quick game of something... Obviously there are some pretty significant privacy issues that would be hard to get around for an application like that, though. -Nick Johnson _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
