As good a reason as any :-)

You've probably checked this, but just in case...On many subscriptions GSM 
data calls are treated the same as voice calls, not like GPRS or 3G data 
connections. It's like using an analogue or ISDN modem, circuit switched to a 
phone number just like a voice call, but carrying arbitrary data rather than 
encoded voice.

That sounds plausible, going back to ancient bit rates. Good luck - you'll be 
an expert in the workings of voice codecs by the end of this!

Re: [Shr-Devel] Palm Pre 2

2010-11-11 Thread Sylvain Paré
Hi!

So I have it!
And I know how to log as root in it (I had to compile novacom-util from
webinternal because the .deb package of developer.palm.com does not include
the new usb id of the pre2 so "unable tofind device")
So if you guys from FSO/SHR want me to list the hardware of the Pre2, or
some thing else, let me know!
I will try the LVM step when the page will have a little paragraph on howto
revert the procedure :)
( I want to be sure of what I do)
because as I understand it there is a change of init scrip ( with
miniboot.sh ) but  I see never  the original one moved back.
Thanks!

Hi all,

Yes, i would like to see if it is possible and refresh my C programming
skills.
It is indeed a flat fee voice subscription, data would cost extra.
VOIP is not what i had in mind ;-)
But i think i can use it to send GPS data from one FR to another.
Or use it for a commandline connection.

Kind regards,
Ed
