With the recent image:

I was able to make voice calls and messaging work on my GTA01, and this is great progress seen from a user's perspective!

The Message UI is rather puzzling, though, I was able to use it.

If it is now possible to make the GTA01 handle battery power in a decent way, i might actually become a really useful device, also for regular usage. I don't usually want to carry more than one mobile device with me, so my Neo still sits on my desk at home.

Decent battery power handling would be:

1.Needing charge less than once each day, even when on 24/7.
2.Being able to keep charging and not loosing/disconnecting charging while plugged in, see:

I know that battery handling has improved on the GTA02, but I hope that also the GTA01 will eventually be usable for common everyday use :-)
