Did you actually manage to get a new sceen yet? I #%([EMAIL PROTECTED]@#)$#%)[EMAIL PROTECTED] dropped my freerunner on the pavement which broke the screen. Please keeps us updated if you are actually going to repair your freerunner. I'm not very keen on getting a whole new freerunner just because the screen is broken. Anyone around with a GTA01 to get rid off or a freerunner which is broken in some other way? If that doesn't work i'll have to find some use for a 400Mhz low power debian system. A few lessons learned during my holiday: - The freerunner does work at altitudes above 2000m. - It will also work fine at speeds around 180 km/h... - ...but operating the touchscreen while driving isn't that easy. - (Up to ~140Km/h the speedometer of my car is remarkably accurate). - Just a heading towards your destination is generally quite usefull... - ...but less usefull when there's a huge mountain inbetween. - You can only use it as just GPS for more around 6 hours. - A nokia BL-5C makes a fine spare battery. - A toothpick is perfectly useable as a styles, cheaper to replace as well. - An cheapo usb car charger will happily charge at 1 amp. - You can drag it up and down a few mountains without problems. - You will break it during a 'save' trip to a nice old village...

A) They came at the same time, but the multithreaded chicken terminated first. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
