Just throwing my $.02 out there, but your first paragraph is exactly the type of paragraph that I personally feel is what the community is wanting/expecting from Michael in his community updates. Furthermore, *if* they do find a showstopper bug, knowing that too would be nice as well.
I honestly think that most of the frustration centers around the fact that there is a decent amount of visibility (and discussion) around the software and its maturity, but there is (especially in comparison) almost zero visibility into the hardware. I'm not necessarily faulting FIC for that lack of visibility behind "closed doors" as most companies wouldn't do that either. I'm just merely pointing out the obvious contrast and why it is causing frustration. -Jonathon -----Original Message----- From: joerg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: List for OpenMoko community discussion <community@lists.openmoko.org> To: Lally Singh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: List for OpenMoko community discussion <community@lists.openmoko.org> Subject: Re: FreeRunner delayed a further 6 months?!?!?? Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2008 05:06:25 +0100 The hw-designers hope they hold the "golden master" in their hands with version A6 currently. Seems there are no showstoppers been found so far. Power management is at a reasonable "some days" to "some weeks" in standby with GSM. Sean Moss-Pultz wrote: > Over here we're working as hard > as we can to get FreeRunner out of the factory.

So i guess you *will* see some timeline or at least an update to be published in the next weeks, no more need for a _monthly_ update blog. cheers jOERG _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
