Re: Fluffy Spider Technologies

2007-12-12 Thread Robi Karp
Hi,

I believe I can comment :-)

The port that was done to that phone was done in collaboration with Open
Kernel Labs.  The initial purpose of that port was to exhibit at the ARM
Developer's Conference.  

Open Kernel Labs were the ones exhibiting at the event, not us, hence
our name was not on the exhibitor's list.  We worked with them on the
software, running our GUI on top of 2 virtualised instances of their
OKL4 product, and as Ian pointed out, we reported on it, because our
software was on display.

The timeframe for the port was extremely short, and at the time there
was only a single SH1 Neo between both the OKL team and our team to work
with.  In fact there was a rush to get that same phone on a plane to get
to the event in time, and so we unfortunately forgot to take a photo
before sending it.  So, yes, that particular photo was Gimped because we
had to get the press release out prior to the event.

However after ARM Dev Con, we filmed the software running on the Neo and
as Andy Powell pointed out, the link to that is here:

This isn't exactly true. In some dual-SIM phones that have recently

Those would no longer be _after market_ products.

It requires two GSM modems inside Neo. That closes this issue.


Only if both SIMs are active on networks at once. While that would be
nice, I don't think that is what people are asking for.




Oh, yes it is!

850 Mhz testers: I have plenty now, so no more needed. Thanks!

2007-12-12 Thread Michael Shiloh

Hello,

Thanks everyone for your enthusiastic response.

As might be imagined, a large number of you offered your services as 
testers for the 850MHz modified GTA01 phones.


I have sufficient testers now, so no more emails please. Although I am 
sure there will be more who would like to participate, please understand 
that I have to limit the size of the test. Thanks in advance for 
understanding.


Unfortunately one of the phones isn't booting reliably. I'm looking into 
this, and at the same time will try to procure another modified phone.


I need to do a bit more testing myself before I start the test. Those of 
you who have volunteered to participate in this test, please wait 
patiently for me to contact you.


Of course I'll report to the community list as we proceed.

Thanks,
Michael

I don't know anything about them but I was sent this link from a client
of mine and asked what I know about them (lol of course everyone from
Australia knows each other.that's a joke - it's only Tasmanians that
are related to each other).

Hi openmoko community,

I'm a webdeveloper with experience using HTML, CSS, Javascript, DHTML, 
PHP, SQL, etc.

Could I be for any use for the openmoko project ?

Greetings Bert

Re: Any chance to have a dual-SIM slot on futures products?

2007-12-12 Thread Bartlomiej Zdanowski [Zdanek]

Hello.

Ilja O. pisze:

It was already said that two SIMs working simultaneously would require
two trancievers.
This is obviously is not a case of GTA02.
Planning feature list for GTA(03|04) is quite a waste of time until
GTA02 will be released.
  
AFAIK gsm modem is about 1/3 of phone production costs. IMHO basic neo 
would never have two modems as it's still very rare to use dual-sim and 
it would generate unwanted neo's price rise.

All I can comment on that is that actual cooperation already happens,
