Re: specific absorption rate

2008-09-02 Thread haduong
 i was looking through planet earlier, when i saw this blogpost, which
 i'm sure others of you have read:

 http://blogs.thehumanjourney.net/finds/entry/20080901

The Neo FreeRunner SAR tests at 1.07 W/kg GSM and 1.17 W/kg DCS. I would
say that's average, on the high side.

The legal limit 1.6 W/kg in the US, 2 W/kg in the EU, and really few on
the market get below 0.3.

I guess that having a setting to limit the radiations emissions at the
expense of radio sensitivity would be a Good Thing. Open Source choice is
better for your health. That's has a different convincing power than `you
can choose whichever keyboard you like', yes ?

Re: Chancing SIM card without reboot

2008-09-05 Thread haduong
 I'd also *love* to see a phone with two SIM slots - I can see the
 interface now, when you dial a number, it prompts you with dial as:
 number 1 number 2. I also like the Idea of having certain contacts
 set to automatically dial using a specified sim.

In Real Life, telephones with two SIM slots are meant to be used by
married people who need a secure, second communication channel...

Startup/Xstart image replacement (How to remove the boots?!)

2008-09-16 Thread haduong
Hi,

  The boot splash should be flashed in its own partition. It was mentioned
on the -devel list that it is apparently going to be part of the next
upgrade. I posted the link to that message on the list last week IIRC,
suggesting to add it to the zenity interface.

(OM2008.8-update) (audio/GSM) alsamixer names

2008-09-16 Thread haduong
 I'd like to suggest different names for the Alsa controls, because quite
 frankly I cannot relate to the ones I see in alsamixer. But first I'd
 like to ask you guys if you feel the same need as me. Do you feel
 comfortable with the present alsa channel names, or would you like them
 to be clearer?

That would be a great deed. The present alsa channel names stink so much
that only the bravest of the brave dare to get close to that subsystem.
That goes a long way to explain why so far we still do not have the
automagical configuration we all would like. Even on my desktop box, by
the way, I had to rewire it to my stereo using the analog jack output
because I lost the configuration for the coax digital.

Dear Michele,

 Put it on the wiki, but please do find a better place for it rather
 than Email not to lose !

 Reading all the email, I found a lot of email where some people give
 very important informations,that I think some other people can be
 interested on.
 It just want to be a list of link with date and a brief description.

  May I kindly suggest that the community newsletter is a good place to
add links with a brief description of important emails ? Here is the
draft of the next issue, help is immensely appreciated:
