I'm an owner of a Neo1973 / GTA01. On the wiki, it mentions: 12/09/2007 - We've been informed that everything legal has been agreed upon by all parties regarding the process that would allow you to upgrade your own GSM firmware. All that remains is to get everything signed. Apparently the process of getting things signed takes a few weeks!
That was 8 months ago. What is the status of a solution to allow us end-users to upgrade the firmware? On a side note, I don't suppose a program for us Neo1973 owners to swap our phone for a discount on a Neo Freerunner has been considered (especially if the only way to get the GSM firmware update is to mail it for service)? I live in North America, and the Neo1973 is geared toward European frequencies; the power consuption on the Neo1973 makes it virtually unusable as a phone, and now most of the development effort is being directed toward the Freerunner and I'm afraid us Neo1973 owners will be left in the dark with an almost unusable phone. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
