Hi, Wouldn't expansion via existing usb or BT be preferable? If a few types of hardware that's accessable via these ports has been developed with some sort of driver and application then further development will have a foundation to work off of and the usefullness will be clear for incorporation

It would mean there would be much more interactive options for games running on the phone though. Like pinball, or driving games. A golf game where you swing the phone maybe? Matt -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bradley Hook Sent: Wedne

Hi, You're saying to add transition effects to a window, which probably would not take up a whole QVGA display, at a reasonable rate of 15/frames second for a phone, will require 70mb/s of memory bandwidth? How did you calculate that? Matt -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [

Is there any existing application which combine sms messaging and GPS? It would be pretty cool to get automated alerts whenever a particular person is nearby, through a central machine (phone, desktop). Or to use some sort of automated homing application, where two people are able to lock to each

RE: New CPU

2007-06-27 Thread Crane, Matthew
