For my small tool epiano (which I haven't worked on in a while

You can easily use any soundfont you want and map a tone sequence to
it, it's absolutely trivial and nice.

It is.

i'm highly interested on the flow. it does everything better than the
neo (well documented high end cpu, perfectly documented 7 band modem).
the question is how it performs as a phone (battery, sound). and of

Yes, a kind of double rocker-push-button (is there a correct english word?
^^) would be fine, too.
Not two buttons, but one button with 2 contacts (one on each side) and a
neutral position in mid.
Here's a picture I found via google, to imagine what I mean:

That's exactly what I already was talking about in the dasher-thread,
because this touchpad would be a cool device to control different things,
especially for dasher text-input in 1D-mode (or 2D). Glad that you found a
matching device.
Imho it shouldn't be a problem for left-handed people, too. Be

That would explain why Intel sold XScale :)
IHMO there is a direct relation between the instruction set and the power
consumption:
The more complex a processor is the more power it needs.
Let's explain it the easy (and not fully correct) way: When you want to see
the complexity of a microprocessor
There are some things that are not true here.
True is, that x86 is on the bottom of popularity, because of the
disadvantages.
Also it's true, that linux runs on x86. Linux's also running on SPARC - but
nobody would use SPARC in a phone, so that is simply no reason for using
x86.
But it is not true
Well, it stays a power consuming x86.
I cannot imagine that this already would be an alternative architecture to
ARM and so on.
Current VIA's take from 500 mW up to 7 W, Intels XScale from 0.1 mW to 1.5W.
When you look at the board you see that there is not much space left.
It seems there's no GSM
Imho the EFL are the best choise for a device like the Neo.
I'm really looking forward to have a EFL-based gui as alternative to the
GTK-gui.

There already was Samsung phones with HSDPA support which was slower than
normal UMTS phones of other manufacturers.
Also flash lite might be good looking, but it is definately no smartphone
platform. At least you cannot use the UI for additional apps (must be an
overlay).

Ok, I do not know the cheap HTC's. The one I have and need for work uses a
big and mighty XScale :)
Well - the 612 MHz doesn't make the dialing software of WM5 in 640x480
faster. Really unusable.

Hm, looks fat and ugly, but I'd like to have that navkey on the neo. :)
HTC builds good devices - if they weren't win mobile powered.
As I say often, win mobile isn't usable for phones.

You are right, and that was before some years. They used this concept in the
whole P-Series except the newest one (P990i) afaik.

Wow, that all sounds really awsome!
But there's one thing I don't understand: I expected the Phase 2 Hardware to
be the same as in Phase 1+.
So does this new informations mean P1+ will get this fantastic hardware
upgrade, too or is it just for P2 which will be different to P1+ then?

Google and the keywords "linux voice recognition" are your friends.

Thank you for this post chris, nice to know, that dasher was running on a so
old and slow device already.
I'm see the things like you do: Touchscreen means you always have to stare
at the device for making inputs.
Like I said - I had a nokia 7710 before and it was nearby impossible to use
it blind
Of course writing with the stylus is better (especially because dasher is
much better in 2D mode than in 1D), but you need 2 hands for that.
But a trackstick (the mouse replacement of notebooks, mainly thinkpads) on
the side would be crazy :)
I hope future FIC/OpenMoko-Phones will have more button
Finger Splash looks very cool and useful.
Imho a cool idea.
@[EMAIL PROTECTED]: You are right, abcde... keyboards can be used for
blind typing. But not on a only-touchscreen-phone.
I used a Nokia 7710 for about 1.5 years and typing blind was simply
impossible.
Theres no feedback at all.

Well, OpenMoko still is mainly a phone platform, not a gps platform. ;)
The Neo will me sold als phone with the option to install software, not
because of its GPS chip.
There will be much free software which will make the Neo a great smartphone
(hopefully ^^).
TomTom ported its software to series6
Imho it would be fantastic to have 2 navkeys at the right side of the phone
to use dasher in the 1D-mode.
So it could be possible to write texts using the right thumb what means
typing with only one hand would be possible.
A touchpad like seen on devices like the Cowon iAudio 6 or the Creative
Zen
Well, this answer is not too bad and maybe better than expected.
"will keep an eye on it" could mean, that TomTom will wait and see how the
first OpenMoko Phones (Neo1973 Phase 2) sell.
If the sales are ok, maybe they release their software for OpenMoko.

Hello,
several times there was the question about (free) navigation software for
OpenMoko.
I found an possible alternative to gpsdrive: roadster [1]
It seems that it is in a relatively early stage and I couldn't test it, but
it looks nice.
I also don't know what kind of maps can be used.
Currentl
This new 8GB microSD is SDHC Class4 Compliant. According to the wiki the Neo
supports SDHC.
Maybe a owner of a p0 device could check this with a smaller (but available
:) ) SDHC microsSD.
