I'd just like to add that QVGA has not worked on GTA01 for a few years
now (at least not in SHR)
xrandr has always reported 480x640 as the only available mode.
I think it may have been worked under om2007.
Anyone tried it under debian?
If anyone's able to have a look at getting GTA01 QVGA workin

I could be wrong, but I thought the 47K resistor cable ID feature was
one of the things they added into GTA02.
I assumed GTA01 didn't have it.

That's 3G SIM cards.
To support 3G a phone needs the hardware to transmit the 3G protocol and
frequency (3G chip inside) and a SIM card that supports 3G
The neo freerunner and 1973 don't have a 3G chip inside so cannot
connect to the 3G network.
A while back people were having problems using 3G
Good idea,
Could use the accelerometers to sense it being picked up.
Couldn't do it in gta01 though, since it doesn't have the sensors.

I've been using SHR on my gta01 for a while as my everyday phone.

Yeah. I gave up using the built in flash a while ago due to never having
any free space.
I run the OS on the sdcard, plenty of room there.

I'm not a heavy openmoko mailing list user but I do read some of it to

As an owner of a GTA01 I find it quite tricky to keep up to date on the

communications.
Feel free to argue either way on this idea

smaller than a Sony PSP.

I'm pretty sure the specs for GTA03 are set and it's 2.75G / edge.

I don't really know for sure but if i had to guess id say it's probably

So the freerunner doesn't suffer from the problem in gta01 of squealing

I wonder how feasible/effective it would be to do some extra realtime
compression on the GPRS data link?
Make a connection to your home Linux box to terminate the compression
and connect you out to the internet from there.
I'm not sure how GPRS works exactly, it may already use compression that
