When Nokia annouces that the n810 is discontinued and will have no more support in the future, nobody gives a damn. Why ? because nokia make dozens of phones and are not stopping ALL of them. when a company stops its entire development of new products in a product line... Yes. But as a user, I would be more saddened if Sean had annouced that gta03 was just around the corner and would be so different from the previous products that all support for those would be discontinued. I may sound old, but I think that the FR hardware (as well as the n810 hardware for that matter) is more than enough, and the inovation must now comes from the software part. The phone downsides are not in the hardware, so let's settle here and improve the software. Make a useable phone with inovative apps is what is needed to get new customers, not a fancy 3d chip nor a better screen or camera or whatever.

Right, there are plenty of new distros but not one that is solid as far as the use as phone goes. Basically the same applies to applications.

Hello, * you changed the yellow shapes. Could you tell us why ? By the way, I changed it for better recognition accuracy.

(joking, light tone) No. They are quite regular (should be symetric), I basically copied them from the shapes of the original java quikwriting appliction by Ken Perlin and tweaked a bit manually (no drawing with mouse :-) ). * I can only write numbers with this version. the move from the center to one zone and back to the center do not work anymore (as more complex ones).

Re: GTA03 or 3d7k?
Ah good question. I'll explain below. One of the final twists in the GTA03 history Timo Juhani Lindfors wrote: Steve Mosher st...@openmoko.com writes: Come on in the waters fine. Can't resist to ask, what's the deal with the name? ;-) In Mar 2 all references to GTA03 were changed[1] to 3d7k in the andy-tracking linux branch. Is it now called GTA03 again? One of the minor issues that Wolfgang and I had with the naming paradigm of of products was the use of what I call secret decoder rings GTA stood for: Gsm;Ti;Agps. Ha, and everybody who reads wikipedia thinks it stood for Gnu Telephony Appliance. That's one of the issues I have with secret decoder ring project names. The other problem is this: numbered sequences. 01,02,03,04. What does that imply? for some it just implies gets better but it could also mean the one following For example, we had a roadmap with a GTA05 on it, but the GTA05 was a very simple phone, 05 meant---comes after 04 on the schedule. You follow? Now GTA03 was redined in such a way that it didnt have wifi and didnt have GPS, and it had a different GSM chip. So, what do we call it: GS03? GS01? secret decoder rings always lead to these kind of problems. So we took a decision to create the following Naming structure: 1. Specific Hardware device: Non representational sequence of alpha numerics. 2. Project Name: Internal Code name, like everest 3. Marketing name. So, Andy went out and picked out a licence plate 3d7k to stand for the specific hardware design he was targeting. It's basically the name you would see in drivers. So one project, say everest could use 3d7k and add lets say and image from SHR and that project would ship with a marketing name of FreeRunner SHR for example. And another project, Lets say diablo could use 3d7k and add a android image, and ship as the product FreeRunner Android I use these ONLY as examples.. the basic point was you had a naming structure that allowed multiple projects (HW+SW) to use the same hardware. It was merely a housecleaning exercise that allowed Wolfgang and I to decouple the hardware naming ( which the drivers needed) from the project naming ( which engineering and marketing needed) and allowed me to do product naming ( FreeRunner) without forcing a rewrite of drivers at the last minute. clear as mud I suppose.

Re: Slashdotted
Like I said, if it bleeds, it leeds. When you have a major announcement such as seans you have two options: 1. Try to control the press response beforehand. Brief the press beforehand, do a press release, release an official statement on the same day as the event. A controlled blast. 2. Drop that bombshell, some of the press will get it wrong, and then use that opportunity. In my mind the community had earned the right to be the first to know. So, I picked option 2. Let Sean tell the community first and then I will go out and correct any misunderstanding. Explaining our position FIRST on the community list, and then to the press and the rest of the world.

What I would do is get in contact with the folks working on a specific distribution ( SHR for example) or specific piece of infrastructure Paroli, tichey,FSO, kernel and ask them these questions. The lack of a todo list and the lack of focused development has also been a frustration for me. It means development happens like an untended garden grows. But look what grew that we never imagined. What would be useful and what even non-coders can (partially) do: Updating and editing wiki pages to reflect the most recent development. -- Marcel ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Why ? because nokia make dozens of phones and are not stopping ALL of them. when a company stops its entire development of new products in a product line... Yes. But as a user, I would be more saddened if Sean had annouced that gta03 was just around the corner and would be so different from the previous products that all support for those would be discontinued. I may sound old, but I think that the FR hardware (as well as the n810 hardware for that matter) is more than enough, and the inovation must now comes from the software part. The phone downsides are not in the hardware, so let's settle here and improve the software. From one perspective because FR is open you really don't have an EOL. unlike closed products. yes, there will come a day when certain parts are not available, but solving that problem is much more manageable than an entire new design. Make a useable phone with inovative apps is what is needed to get new customers, not a fancy 3d chip nor a better screen or camera or whatever.

It's too bad having to put up with the Glamo, but oh well. We continue to look at a glamoectomy; How much longer can GTA02's remain in production? Any impending part obsolescence to worry about? I would hazard that we see no issues through the end of 2009. If a part goes out of production, then you have a 'grey market' that lasts for some while. As the grey market drains you ordinarily would look to do a redesign. For example, remove glamo and switch GSM chips.

Re: how long freerunner will be produce ?
Thanks for answering me. For the moment we have bought to one of your distributors providing us a very good price. It's very difficult for us to estimate how many GTA02 we are going to sell because it is part of a full offer. It can be be 50 or 100 or 500 per year. The other problem is that for some others reasons we don't think really sell so much this year but really start in 2010. I a little bit worried for our future with the GTA02. Thanks, Mickael.
