Common Lisp for OM (Was: Programming OM)
Jesus! I thought I was the only one wanting to program CL on the OM. I've had lots of interesting ideas on how to use a gesture-based interface for writing CL, which could work only thanks to the sparse syntax, and plan to make that some of the first things I program for my OM. Hooray! /Oliver Uvman ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Getting Things Done with Openmoko
I am using the really excellent, open source, TRACKS to handle my GTD business. It's an extremely awesome implementation that does pretty much everything. It is web based, so I will be able to use it with my OpenMoko using just the browser. :D It seems to have good APIs, so creating an app that adds a task (and uploads it whenever inside wifi range) shouldn't be too hard. I really advice you all to check it out - even if you haven't read GTD (I haven't). I got started using it in about five minutes after installation, which was quick and painless thanks to some magic software that just bundles every dependency it has (might be bloat if you already have a web server). Alternatively, there might be publically usably web servers up already. Might we one day see a http://gtd.openmoko.org? /Oliver ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: 3 nets
Ah ok, thanks for clarifying. /Oliver playing media != IPTV I know of the glamo chip. It will do little to help decode IPTV-style compression realtime AFAIK. As mentioned in this thread before, you have to transcode offline prior to playing it on NEO. Glamo might help to avoid prerotating, but still you have to decode/transcode. jOERG ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: 3 nets
NEO is no phone, but only a something like a 300MHz/128MB computer. You won't find any in this class to do tricks like IPTV :-D (at least w/o a graphics video accelerator card, or other dedicated video hardware) jOERG The GTAv2 will have a 3D-acceleration chip. :) There are already videos on youtube of the old GTAv1 playing media, so it shouldn't be a problem to do it on the v2 /Oliver ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Google Summer of Code
As you all probably know, the summer of code 2008 has been announced, and now is the time for organisations to start readying their applications. Will OpenMoko try to grab a few of us want-to-get-into-OSS students for 3 months of paid summer coding? Please say yes. Pretty please? As a student I already have my eyes on a few organisations that I know will try to become mentoring orgs, but if OpenMoko also got onto the list I would be extremely happy to try to become one of your crazed code monkeys. So what say you? Regards, Oliver U ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Bike power (Re: solar power)
I haven't read the rest of this discussion, but a human body in starvation will first of all burn muscle for energy, and after that it will start burning fat. The starvation response in the body starts setting in a few hours after you ate last time, which is why bodybuilders eat about 6 times a day. /Oliver -- Forwarded message -- From: Schmidt András [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: List for OpenMoko community discussion community@lists.openmoko.org Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2008 10:21:22 +0100 Subject: Marcel wrote: But you would really have to keep an eye on the overall ATP level, if it goes too low, there might something terrible happen... What does a body behave like on really low energy (ATP) levels? I am not a human body expert but my guess is: You get hungry and also your reserves are getting utilized (fat and muscle is burnt as well).

RE: Application idea: Bicycle computer
Would it still be possible to use the touchscreen then? Doesn't really matter since you'll have accelerometers. Give it a light knock to the left to see stat screen X, knock it to the right to stat screen Y, knock it right on to light up the screen. Make it do an automated 911 call with recorded voice and GPS co-ordinates if it detects sudden, strong, acceleration in one direction and then a complete stop. Only your imagination limits you. :) /Oliver ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Battery time
Hi John! That was a very long, detailed and good answer. Exactly what I needed. The fact that the battery time is over 7 hours rather than 3 (like most laptops) gives me faith that it will be quite enough for me. Big thanks! /Oliver ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Battery time
Hi! So for the longest time, I've been worrying about the battery life of the Neo. Before I buy the GTA02, it is something I'd love to know. The wiki has entries talking about which power management things are implemented and which aren't, and I assume this will increase over time. On the iPhone page, the Battery row of the table says 8h talk on iPhone and replaceable 1.7 Ah battery charged via USB on the Neo - not very extensive info. So, since many of you seem to have Neos now, and since the dialer app is (supposedly) working now, how's the phone for real-world usage? How long between charges for *you*? What do *you* do with it during normal usage? Cheers, Oliver ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
