On gta02 people where complaining on the sound from my gta02 even after buzfix applied. I hope gta04 is an improvement also in this respect. As far as i can say from early testing, the sound quality is good. I still need low latency software for routing the sound between UMTS and speakers, but otherwise the modem seems to work reliably - i have been receiving SMS and calls without any issues. This issue should be solved with the next board version GTA04A4 which is produced right now. This board version connects the modem directly to the TPS chip which contains all the sound related stuff. Therefore it should work without additional software if you adjust the right alsa switches to route the audio between modem and mic/speakers. So with good power management this has potential to be usable phone. This is still to do. The OMAP platform is very capable of saving power but everything must be set up within the linux kernel. This is a challenging task if you didn't do this before. I'm still trying to understand all necessary bits to help out here.

The wiki page now contains instructions on how to connect the naviboard v3 to a graphics card [1]. This should enable everyone to use it and requires only three parts: a VGA connector (or DVI or HDMI), a 3V regulator (LDO) and a naviboard. Connect everything as described, plug it in, load the i2c-dev module and run i2cdetect to check if it's working. If the instructions are not detailed enough, please complain and I will try to clarify any issues. I tested this setup with the integrated Intel graphics card on my notebook and it worked fine, a test with an nvidia card will follow. To find the right I2C bus on your machine, load the i2c-dev module and run i2cdetect on all available busses (look in /sys/bus/i2c/devices for i2c-*, or simply try this: "for i in `seq 1 20`; do echo $i; i2cdetect -y $i; done;"). The commands output should be different if your monitor is disconnected (or switched off). Have fun!

Buying Openmoko GTA02 from Europe
Hi, It seems that a big problem we have here in Europe to get Openmoko devices is that the shiping costs are quite high: around 80-100USD !! I've opened a website that will sell GTA02 devices when they are available, to other Europe countries. I'll buy quantities of devices from FIC and resell them from here, in Switzerland, middle of Europe. If you are interested in buying one, please drop me a mail through the website at : http://www.jesc.ch/openmoko This is a *pre-order* only. You are not liable if you change your mind! It's just to know the approximate number of devices that I'll need to order from FIC. Payment will be possible through Paypal or direct postal payment in Switzerland. Shiping costs will be around 20-25EUR for countries in Europe. Best regards. -jec -- Don't assume, ask!
