Dear all, to further improve the Freerunner hardware, we have done another upgrade and are now the first to sell the new variant GTA02A7+ from stock.
The difference to the A7 is that the #1024 rework ("recamping bug") has already been applied. Therefore the A7+ device now has a much longer standby time in the case that the Calypso GSM modem goes to sleep mode (AT%SLEEP=4). The product link is http://www.handheld-linux.com/wiki.php?page=Neo%20Freerunner If you already own a A5/A6 or A7 device, we offer the rework as well, but you have to ship the device to us which needs approx. 2 weeks turnaround time: http://www.handheld-linux.com/wiki.php?page=1024-Rework Nikolaus PS: if you go to FOSDEM next week, please come to my presentation. I may give a glimpse what could come after GTA02A7... http://www.fosdem.org/2010/schedule/events/gnustep_porting_quantumstep PPS: our server may respond a little slow today since it is victim of a DoS attack Am 12.08.2009 um 11:12 schrieb Dr. H.
