2008/3/18, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ...in other words, it *is* intended strictly as a developer's plaything, I completely agree with this strictly because of the battery life on the gta01. If they ever had any intention of this being mass produced, they would have got most of the hardware right the first time, and at least tested the basic functionality. Do you understand the simple difference between gta01 and gta02? Gta01 was *never* meant to be a consumer device. They're talking about gta02 here. I bought a gta01 because I thought it would be fun to write software for. However the one thing that has got me since day 1 is the battery life. Why do you need a good battery life to develop software? Are you used to write software outdoors? Just plug in your charger's cable. Unless you didn't read that big, red warning when you were buying your customer-ready gta01. -- Jaroslaw Swierczynski [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.archlinux.org | www.juvepoland.com ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

2008/3/18, Michele Renda [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I try to explain: OpenMoko team is try to follow a project: they are not a firm like Nokia or Motorola. Oh they are very much like Nokia or Motorola. Like Nokia or Motorola they respect their customers and don't want to make them pay for crap. People who don't understand it apparently like crap. I suggest to stop the discussion with Mark. He hasn't got a slightest idea about software/hardware development and business. And I'm not talking only about risking money by selling untested, possibly faulty hardware. I'm also talking about risking business suicide when you lose trust of customers. This should be so easy to understand for every intelligent man. -- Jaroslaw Swierczynski [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.archlinux.org | www.juvepoland.com ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

2008/3/18, Michele Renda [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I was not speaking about this aspect. About this aspect I think they are better, but I was speaking about firm dimensions. Yes, you point is very valid. There are some important differences like experience, existing product base and number of employees but generally they have very much in common. -- Jaroslaw Swierczynski [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.archlinux.org | www.juvepoland.com ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
