Re: Any progress on the Telit UC864 3.5G modem?
Please, has anyone looked further into this? I do a lot of travelling into countries that use 3G only networks and being able to swap the existing GSM module with this one would save me A LOT of hassle. What's the concensus and for those who have tried: how hard is it to swap and get it running?

Re: Any progress on the Telit UC864 3.5G modem?
Thanks for clarifying Justyn, it's still something that would be a great feature to have. I will buy a later version FR only if it contained a 3G modem. I guess I'm just over-anxious about getting 'everything' I've wanted in a phone so quickly On Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 9:05 AM, Justyn Butler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If you're talking about physically replacing the TI Calypso modem on the Freerunner board with a 3G modem, I'm afraid you misunderstand.

If you're talking about physically replacing the TI Calypso modem on the Freerunner board with a 3G modem, I'm afraid you misunderstand. This is not at all possible.

Re: Any progress on the Telit UC864 3.5G modem?
Justyn, lots of changes in our hardware team, we hired some great new engineers, Adam Wang (production engineer), Ivorin Chen (layout engineer), Tully Gehan (mechanical engineer), Eva Lin (project coordinator). Working on more... As for MokoForesight, Shawn Lin left a while ago, so the whole idea is 'suspended' right now. WSOD is fixed so I'm sure it will resume properly at some point ;-) Telit has some great modules, we are not pursuing this any further at this moment, but there is a good chance we will at some point. Hope this helps, Best Regards, Wolfgang On Dec 9, 2008, at 5:58 AM, Justyn Butler wrote: Hi, It's been quite a while since the MokoForesight page was updated, so I was wondering whether any more research went into the Telit UC864G modem (3.5G with integrated GPS).

Telit has some great modules, we are not pursuing this any further at this moment, but there is a good chance we will at some point. I hope so. The sooner the cellular connectivity of the OM devices can be brought up-to-date, the better.

This is one of those modular devices, correct? Does this mean there is a chance of being able to swap in a CDMA module?
