It was unstable and when I used PCMCIA devices it would crash. I backed it back down to 233MHz and it has been running with no problems for over a year.

Hi all, I´m working with a second hand Libretto 100Ct for to squeeze the maximun performance. i think that a Libretto 100Ct can run at 300Mhz: -. Looking the Pentium M datasheet, i can see that, only Pentium 1 Mobile (0.25micron) can be run at 300Mhz, the Lib have one this. -. Looking the CY2278A, the clock synthesizer of Lib 100CT motherboard, can be generate 20, 25, 33.33, 40, 50, 60, 66.67 and ..75Mhz. We can choose the 75Mhz for generate the 300Mhz pattern. Anybody have any experience with this? Maybe work or not, but i´m trying!!! José Menéndez RD - Software Designer.

OQO 01+ impressions (was Re: [LIB] OQO 1+ vs. Libretto U100

Would you care to share your experiences? My main points of interest are: Well the first thing I'll say is we didn't get the OQOs to use as PDAs - we're mounting them under clear polycarbonate in the backs of our robots ... but I did have a bit of a play with one before we wiped it and put Linux on it ... I've got some answers below, if you've got any more you'd better ask quick before we wipe the rest of them! ;-) - How briskly does the OQO wake up from hibernation/standby? Quickly enough so that you can pull it from your pocket and look up a phone number without grinding your teeth? On a fresh install, takes about 3 seconds to come up out of standby. I imagine if you've got things like password protection or something that does something on resume or if you've got a pile of stuff open it'll take longer (my laptop takes about 10-20 seconds to come out of standby but most of that is spent paging like crazy because I tend to have a pile of stuff open and drivers that try to find wireless networks and the like). It takes about 4 seconds to go back into standby but again that's with almost nothing open. - Supposing you leave the OQO in hibernation/standby most of the time, just waking it up to look up phone numbers, jot down some notes, check your email, do a Mapquest search, etc, can you get through a whole day on a single battery charge? How about with the double-capacity battery? Haven't checked that yet ... like most (all?) modern laptops, the OQO uses almost no power in standby and if it's got battery life anything like my Zaurus you should be fine ... I'd think you'd get about 3 hours of use out of it however you break that usage up. If I get a chance to check and get results I'll get back to you ... - Is the keyboard at least as usable as, let's say, a Blackberry or a Treo keyboard? I've not used a Blackberry or a Treo but I've used a few others ... I'd put this keyboard at somewhere between the Sony Clie NX70 series and the UX50 ... it's not as good as the Zaurus C-series (the clamshell ones) and the extra size means that although the buttons aren't as good as some of the Palm clipon keyboards (the ones with individual rubber keys - can't remember the name) it does seem easier to type on. Basically it feels like a cheap membrane keyboard that they've put raised 'buttons' on top of to make it a little less likely that you'll accidentally press 2 buttons at once ... I guess it's one you can get used to but there aren't any raised indents on the F and J keys for instance so you've really got to look at the keyboard to type on it. Still, I recon it's useable ... just disappointing and somewhat annoying (I can almost touchtype on my Zaurus). Individual keys and raised indents on the F and J keys would be nice. The keys are also laid out in a square grid so I do find myself with my thumbs between keys on the upper and lower rows (the Zaurus has them laid out properly so I get used to that) but that's probably something to get used to. You certainly won't be doing any more than thumb typing on this keyboard. One interesting thing is the screen - it's not a touch screen as such - you poke it with your finger and nothing happens apart from fingerprints (which this screen shows quite badly). It's actually a proper tablet (under Linux it appears as a Wacom apparently - we haven't tried getting it working because we don't use it) so if you hover the stylus almost 2cm over it without touching it, the pointer still moves and you click by tapping the pen on the screen. The stylus (which as far as I can tell is passive - no batteries in it) also has a button which gives you right click. Pretty neat in that you don't need to worry about not resting your hand on the screen ... it also means you can put a solid screen protector (we're using pieces cut from CD cases) over it and still use the pen. I think at some point you might even be able to get pressure levels out of it. You can configure how hard or soft clicks need to be before they register for instance - and you can click in midair (eg. by holding a piece of clear plastic about 1cm over the screen and hitting that with the stylus) so it's doing something funky with how far and fast the stylus is moving up and down to determine that but I'm not sure if the driver actually makes that available to applications. If the answer to these is yes, I'll probably buy a OQO. I've been researching them for a while and they seem pretty good, though pricey. Yes indeed they are pricey ... they are nice little packages though. Personally, if I

I like the Blackberry for email and tolerate it for voice, but don't feel it does anything else well. Even if I could choose my phone freely, in the US the cellphone companies are not very adventuresome in their phone offerings and Verizon, my preferred carrier, is among the least adventuresome. I was just in Europe and saw some smartphones that certainly looked very nice. If I were there, I'd probably try something like a Nokia Communicator.

I have one.. pretty good for my 400 contacts (with vcf backup), calendar, taking pictures, accessing simple www sites, taking notes.. The features of a Series60 phone are infinite.. You can even play games with lots of emulators.. You can watch divx movies too.. The battery lasts 2 days in normal use with this apps.. And it is resistent sufficiently to go everywhere with you.. And fits in your pocket.. etc.. etc.. :) A question for you.. Don't you think windowsXP is full-featured for your target app? It just needs a good processor and a big battery to stay up for just a few hours.. My Series60 gets its battery full charged in 1h20mins and lots of times I charge it for 10 minutes and it will give me more 3-7 hours.. Its battery is so cheap that I even care for it... I think the best purpose for OQO is it's capacity for conecting a usb keyboard and a external display .. Great for traveling from home to office for people without a internet connection and file server.. The question is that OQO is cool but has too much processing power that will give you too little battery.. I think too much processing power for it's bad keyboard/mouse, for not using it as a real computer.. Maybe a tuned OS would do better on this machine.. Linux? [] JA Tavares
