Re: Chumby on OpenMoko/Neo1973?
Well, we've got the Aux button to replace that. As far as I understood it it's a simple button press thing.

Re: Chumby on OpenMoko/Neo1973?
"What are the features of the chumby? Wi-fi connectivity • access to the free Chumby Network • 3.5" LCD color touchscreen • two external USB 2.0 full-speed ports • 350 MHz ARM processor • 64 MB SDRAM • 64 MB NAND flash ROM • stereo 2W speakers • headphone output • squeeze sensor • accelerometer (motion sensor) • leather casing • AC adapter included" I think the GTA02 would handle that just fine. The only thing it's missing is the "squeeze sensor". -Steven On 11/6/07, Ortwin Regel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Would it be possible to run the Chumby ( http://chumby.com/ ) software on > OpenMoko / the Neo1973?

Chumby on OpenMoko/Neo1973?
Would it be possible to run the Chumby ( http://chumby.com/ ) software on OpenMoko / the Neo1973? What would it take to make this possible? Why do I want it? Imagine it like this: Plug your Chumby equiped OpenMoko device into the USB charging cable (/cradle). Let it sit for a while. After five minutes of no activity, the Chumby software starts up automatically and displays flash widgets, just like a Chumby would. With a simple press of the power button, you get out of Chumby and back into OpenMoko. Makes sense, doesn't it? Why get another immobile device if you've got all the hardware to run Chumby software in your Neo? It might still make sense if you want a permanent Chumby beside your bed or multiple around the house. Many people probably would not want to get the hardware twice, though, so it would make sense to make their Neos work as part time Chumbys. In the GTA02, we should have all the necessary hardware with accelerometers and Wifi. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
