There's a community effort underway to get DRI working for Glamo, and
the chip's documentation has been made available to people who are
willing to sign an NDA.  Keep an eye on the Devel list if you're
interested...

Okay I found http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GTA03 in the meantime, sorry. 
So what about the case, any paintings already?

By the way, I just ordered my Freerunner! :)

Out of date, please update me

Dear community,

I am in the list now since before the release of GTA01 and used to read
most of the messages. After the release of GTA02 a huge flame war started
and after some mails regarding the future of OM I was unsettled and decided
to wait for a while. The amount of mail per day increased and I could not
read all of them any more. So now I'm really not up to date and am not sure
what's all about.

I hope someone could answer me a few questions... :)
 - I'm developing a lot with OpenGL these days, is there any way to get a
usable 3d performance on the GTA02 today/plans for the future?
 - Is there any major issue with the GTA02 hardware (e.g. possibility of
getting destroyed hardware by the battery or whatever)
 - I know staff won't tell me much about GTA03, but I hope to just get the
information if the case design will be different? I'm fine if one could
tell me if it will be _not_ egg-shaped and will have _no_ hardware keyboard
(just like the GTA01/02 but not egg-shaped). I don't like the design...
Maybe there is a rough painting or something?
 - What about the OS thing? When I stopped reading there were messages
saying the "core" of OM will be decided and programmed by OM internals.
What is the status now, what is done by OMs only? 
 - Maybe there is a information page about the GTA03 and I just didn't find
it, is there?

To prevent people from flaming about my questions about GTA03: It's 90%
sure that I will buy a GTA02 as I was searching the web for weeks and could
not find any other device like the FR. And as I still use my Nokia 3410
it's time to get a new mobile device now. GTA03 is not available yet, so
there's only the GTA02 left. I just hope to have a preview on the GTA03 to
decide if I will look for different devices or just wait for the GTA03 to
come out after getting the GTA02.

Thanks for all your comments!

Cheers,
Daniel
