GTA04 Wiki

2011-01-14 Thread Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller
Behind the scenes a lot of things are slowly progressing.

One part is setting up a web interface to important information.

Therefore, we have now installed

wiki.gta04.org

which is completely virgin..

To start filling it with really useful information, please let us know
which pages (keyword, short description) you would expect.

PS: The early adopter offer is still open since we have not yet
got a quotation for the memory chips (Micron MT29C or MT46
in 168-VFBGA) and those appear to be the most critical to secure
first. The more orders we have the easier it becomes to talk to the
distributors.

Hi Nikolaus,

What would be a good idea is to have a list with working functionality for the 
device.
That would give people an overview on how usable the device is for  a certain 
task.

for example:
 Yes  No
can send SMS   X
can make voice call   X
working X server X
has working GPS  X

etc

I don't know if it is wise from a buisness point of view, but i would love to 
know how many people have ordered the device yet.

Kind regards,
Ed

Just an idea: we could write down wrong decisions that were made during GTA02 
development and that could be avoided for GTA04.

E.g.:

- the GTA03 announce was bad decision and discouraged many people from buying 
GTA02.

- GTA02 was released to public as phone without decent software stack, which 
caused negative reviews, which discouraged many potential customers.

Maybe it's too early but it would be pity to do something wrong twice.

I can see a lot of potential in GTA04 and it could be employed not just as a 
phone. I am working for company that does sofware and sells embedded devices 
and we paid a lot of money for custom ARM board with display and GSM modem. 
GTA04 could have done the job much better.

Regards

Radek
