Yes, I did this evaluation to determine what's the best way to talk to ATBEN, given that there are a number of different ways to implement it and it's nearly impossible to predict the quantitative differences in performance without actually trying it. > p.s.

At Openmoko, I even managed to establish a better one: to make it easier for us engineers to install the system on a "virgin" device (i.e., fresh from the factory), which was a fairly involved process, with JTAG and so on (the Ben is really easy in comparison), I wrote a script I jokingly called the "devirginator". I expected that someone would quickly find the name inapproriate, but it passed without comment. I guess that would be different in a US or EU company :-) What I didn't expect was that nobody would bother to actually make a proper setup process for mass production, and in the end that very same devirginator ended up in the assembly line at the factory, with young female factory workers being trained to type "./devirginate" at the appropriate time ... - Werner _______________________________________________ Qi Hardware Discussion List Mail to list (members only): [email protected] Subscribe or Unsubscribe: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/mailman/listinfo/discussion
