At least, as they would say..., a system better IN THIS REGARD. :)

(I've never seen that phrase used quite that frequently before--
an average of ~once per sentence?)

At least its showing up in the product listing again. :)

Finally got a reply from them this morning:

  "Thank you for writing back to us.

  "We understand your concern in this regard, as please be informed that
   we have checked the details and we are aware of the details in this regard.
   The potential customer should have a buyer account and he should have

With this setup, I get an error message that "file" is not defined,

Hi,

For the logo - You just voted for an official SHR logo, so why don't

Hi Folks.
Some guys from the SHR-developer team and me got some place in the chaos 
communication congress to represent our project there.
Now I'd like to print some T-Shirts, which will make us recognicible as such 
developers.
For the T-Shirts I'd like to use the good old, old school OpenMoko logo.
http://blog.chip.de/chip-linux-blog/files/2007/07/openmoko_logo2.png
Does someone have the SVG files for this logo lie around on his hd?
Or does someone have a link to these files?
Would be nice, if you could post/send me the link/file.

My personal hope is, that they unexpectetly change to OpenMoko, and just are 
inspiring the Enlightenment people to optimize theire desktop better for 
mobile devices.
But such hopes are totaly unrealistic... I know.
There was only one FIC, and it didn't work very well. :-(

I don't  hold my breath for  this, major hardware vendors are just
"understanding" the benefits of FOSS software
vs propietary but they are far away to aply this to his hardware they
still  very tight to the old ways of producing hardware and it
involves a lot of secrets to avoid any one else stole their ideas and
patents.

Re: future phones that you can hack. news.

2009-11-18 Thread Vasco Névoa
I do understand the skepticism, but thinking about the apparent success 
a pseudo-open platform like Android is having near the manufacturers and 
users, I'd say there is a very good chance something groundbreaking (in 
terms of market attitude) may actually happen. Android is fierce 
competition, and others may take the plunge into "openness" just to 
fight it. It's a "lesser evil" choice for the manufacturers (or in this 
case, a "lesser potential for losses in the near future").

Carry on, people!! :)
Just don't let them twist your values. ;)
