 Open software seems to work.
 Why don't we try it with hardware.

 1. pick an embedded processor.
 It should have a nice linux gui support (like x jtag debugger).

 2. pick a linux based cad system we all have easy access to and place
 schematics under cvs.

 3. pick some type of gpio or serial interface for keyboard/display.

 4. pick some basic functionality.

 5. code it up. A stripped down *.

 Let everyone do their own thing with the expensive part.
 Tooling/packaging.

 We could let Digium be the distributor, so they are not left out of the
 loop.
 A board set would be offered with NO support.
 If Digium wants no part of it, we just build them on our own for our own
use
 or sell them on ebay.

 What we would provide is schematics and source code.
 Everyone can take this to their favorite fab house and crank em out.

only problem is the protocol stack isn't open.  Good chip

We would only use that code for examples of how to bolt in
the bottom end drivers.  We would roll out our own os/scheduler,
a little * code and drivers.
I have not found a data sheet for the 1001 yet, but I did look at the 1050.
Great looking chip.  Just a few questions.
Any idea how much it cost?

It does have a jtag debug interface.
Do you know of any gui debuggers running on linux for this chip?
We really need a nice friendly debug environment to make it as easy
to write/load/debug code as doing it for linux.

I had been thinking of doing this, but lack the
electronics expertise to do such a thing.

I basically need phones that look like trading
turrets, so I can sneak them into this one trading
firm.

Good idea, let's see if there's any traction.
