I picked up a Neo Freerunner & dev board today from the good folks over @ PariSOMA here in SF today. It was a little disappointing that the dev board came in a recyclable paperboard box instead of the hardsided case. Do they just not ship those anymore ?
I got a pre-paid SIM from T-Mobile and it works. I did a couple of test calls and heard maybe a little bit of echo but no buzz. Text messages send and receive okay, at least for the first couple ones that I tried. The one noticeable bug is that the digitizer/UI totally loses it's calibration when the screen gets flipped into landscape mode. I'm downloading the 2008.12 distro as I type this and I'm going to flash it as soon as it's done downloading. So far, for the whole two or three hours I've had it, I'm liking it. I really like the Lao Tze quote on the card inside the box. It's quite appropriate :) Anyway, that's about all for now. Time to go flash some firmware. Yay! ----Steve _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
