These are all small issues as such, as they are all on the software side and many have been either fixed or are different on different distributions (you don't need to use Openmoko's distribution - you can use Debian, Qt Extended, SHR, ...). You will find echo fixed in Openmoko's 2008.11 release, if you keep using the Openmoko distro, and responsiveness and touch screen usability will also improve with 2008.11 release. End call / accept call stuff are just UI things, easy to fix, but maybe you should file a bug report about it since otherwise no-one might notice. The buzzing issue is the only "real", serious issue. > Also, I know everyone loves X, but is it really the best choice for a low > powered device that needs a responsive UI? Yes :) Any unresponsiveness in the UI is not because of the X. > I think maybe I had the wrong impression about the state of the software when > I bought it. Probably. It's not a phone product yet, it's a phone in development. >From your point of view I can understand the frustration with the other issues, but for me they are just a few things to work on / test fixes. The buzzing / hw issue is really the only thing I'm worried about, since it needs to be fixed and there is no known software fix for it yet. -Timo _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
