Re: Message duplicates
sorry once again. It should be fixed now.

This will not incent future potential buyers to get, for example, an iPod Touch right away, as opposed to waiting a few months to see what the price drop will be. Not a good strategic move. Beyond that, a price drop of 33% on a product scarcely two months old strongly suggests that iPhones are not exactly flying off the shelves now that the initial reaction has died down... As for me, after such drop I became more intended in purchasing it... =#=-===-===#=--- - -- -=#=-- - - - - Best regards, Denis ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re[2]: Pretty UI for OpenMoko
Hi! Are there ideas of creating TWUIK-like motion/transition engine for OpenMoko? This feature would be great for consumer product. For example compare UIs of Nokia 6230 and SonyEricsson K750... There is no blitter on the neo1973, so moving or transforming full-screen windows is quite expensive in software. For example, 72 megabytes/second or so memory bandwidth can be needed for a full-screen move, which will be very close to what the hardware can do. Of course, maxing out the CPU for periods won't help battery life enormously. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community I have estimated memory bandwidth in following way: 480 (width) * 640 (height) * 3 (bytes per pixel, not sure) * 25 (fps) == 2304 bytes/s (22Mb/s) Actually, we could use only half of frames or so. I have some experiences in flash animation and I can say that removing some animation steps and making more valuable transformations in other ones looks smoothly. Of course, we need some CPU time for pixel blending and other operations. But now I can not estimate it :( BTW, what language TWUIK is written on?

Re: First impressions of Neo1973
Hello Community, I am reading this mailing list about a month. And finally here is my first post :) Can any of happy neo1973 owners talk about its audio quality? Comparing sound quality to iPod or SonyEricsson K750/W800/W810 with their native headphones (using known non-professional ones with neo, e.g. KOSS PortaPro). BTW, I'm from Ukraine. Are there anybody too?
