Re: Broken FR for sale
Well, IDK how it's useful for home automation, if it doesn't have a screen... Perhaps you mean as a server, not a client, but even so, that requires a lot of hardware and skill I don't have. :P Also, seeing as I don't have a car, only a bike, it wouldn't be particularly useful for tracking a stolen vehicle, even if the GPS was working. About the only thing I can think of that it would be useful to me for is to trade it in for an A7 (or at least something with a buzzfix) with a working screen, and get a huge discount for it. I have no idea if that's feasible, but my gut says no. Now, if anyone wants to sell me a screen, I'm very interested. It would be fun to try to repair it, although probabilistically speaking I would be more likely to break every component in the phone that does work, including the new screen, when I tried to replace it... Nevertheless, it's worth a shot. But for now, that's a dead end unless I can find a touchscreen that fits in it. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I think you was the first who used bluetooth headset seriously... If you have enough the freerunner. Just buy the cheapest phone for 10$. I expect you to return in a month or so. Seriously this highly costumizable phone is addictive! I think in a month freerunner will be in a very good shape. I expect KMS (for video), improved wifi, improved gprs, improved everything. I even want to have paroli a bit better shape running on shr. Regarding to what for is usable the freerunner: If you have an arduino, the possibility is endless. The most useful would be steal preventing in your car, ie you could track your card when stolen via sms. The second useful thing would be home automation.

Re: Broken FR for sale
Well, the irritating thing is, There is NOTHING a screenless FR can do that my laptop can't, and if I need a computer to make it do anything interesting, then what's the point in having a 400MHz processor do it instead of my 2.0GHz dual-core? :P The stupid GPS doesn't even work anymore, apparently a software issue, but one I cannot fix anyways. Dos1 had the same problem, and his magically started working again. Mine committed suicide first. :( ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Broken FR for sale
don't you have ssh access? you can still do fun stuff with the FR even if you don't have a screen, and with time maybe you'll find a screen that fits for a nice price. In the mean time you use the Nokia 1208 to send sms and call friends and family :) -f- On Fri, Sep 4, 2009 at 8:23 PM, The Digital Pioneer < digitalpion...@gmail.com> wrote: > Yeah, but I kinda need a screen for that. :P > > ___ > Openmoko community mailing list > community@lists.openmoko.org > http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community > > ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Anyone care to raise it? I really suggest you to keep it. On my freerunner the power button are already began to wear seriously. I need to push it with my nails. Dunno any alternative method to wake up the device from suspend. I highly bet this is a custom part. Really 70$ is not much, for me, the shipping cost would be about the same. So really, keep it (if you are planning to buy a new freerunner).

Further elaboration, forgive my oversight: It is the North American version, so 850. I live in Arkansas, US. As to price, think of it as an eBay auction. Current bid is €50, which is about $74.50. Buy it now is $100 and free shipping. :) Payment is via PayPal only, please. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Broken FR for sale
If anyone wants it, I have one broken FR and I've gotta get rid of it. The computational aspect is fine, the only part of it that doesn't work is the screen, which is cracked. The screen DOES NOT WORK!! It's cracked and you can't see anything useful. Just colors and lines. The phone itself works fine, including the touchscreen (if you know where to touch without seeing anything). You can SSH in and play music. It still works, it just has no meaningful display. It is A5 with no buzzfix. Comes with 3 batteries, wall charger, stylus pen, USB cable, OM branded neoprene pouch, and wired headset. If you're interested, make me an offer. -- Thanks, The Digital Pioneer -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
