Status of the GTA04 Group Tour
Just two weeks left over to get subscribers, makes me think that it is time to look at the order indicator. We have achieved 41%. This is a big step forward after the 25% during FOSDEM time and shows that we have a growing support. Thanks to all those who see a future for the GTA04! On the other side it is not realistic to hope to reach the 100% goal by end of March. Should we now - just as the GTA04 is gaining speed, getting working distributions like QtMoko and SHR with some remarkable features (e.g. 10-20 seconds boot time), Replicant/Android just starting - so should we now cancel the group tour if we don't reach the 100% goal? I think: no. This means, we will produce boards for all these preorders, independently from the final outcome by end of March. And it means that you can still subscribe. It has only one major issue: the financial side. The idea of the group tour was to raise the production batch size into a range where component cost comes down allowing the preorder price incl. early bird rebate (449/474/499 EUR) to cover all known (and some unexpected) cost. But with the lower number of units, the component cost raises by approx. 20%. So we have a funding gap of approx. 100 EUR per board. Golden Delicious Computers can compensate a little but this is also getting to its limits. Since I think it would be unfair to ask all subscribers to pay more - and I am sure that not everyone could afford that - a better approach is just to ask for (additional) donations to fill that gap as good as possible. So if you think the GTA04 project deserves to survive, please make donations through: http://www.handheld-linux.com/wiki.php?page=GTA04%3ADonation Any amount (in increments of 1 EUR) is welcome. As a bonus we offer to the first one who donates: 1000 EUR: the first GTA04A2 board (there exists only one) 800 EUR:the first GTA04A3 board (has a OMAP3530 processor, no UMTS but otherwise works fine) 500 EUR:a Letux 380 Linux Quadband smartphone sample with OMAP730 with integrated GSM/GPRS baseband (www.letux.org) 300 EUR:a Letux 400 MIPS based MiniPC (we still have some in stock collecting dust) Sorry that we don't have a better solution than to start fund-raising, but it is a way to continue and not throw away what we already have achieved and disappoint those who already decided they want to have a GTA04.

One GTA04A3 (Early Adopter) board for sale
Hi all, we have one GTA04A3 board (Ser #0024) that we do not need any more for further experiments. It has two bugs - one is the well known power-down issue of the UMTS module that has been fixed in the A4 boards. And, the PCM voice interface appears to have a broken wire which can't be repaired. I.e. there is no telephony function. And optical, it does not look nice since it has been used in soldering experiments. But everything else (CPU, USB, WLAN, BT, UMTS data, GPS, Sensors) has been tested to be ok. Please send me offers by private mail.

Keyboard for GTA04
During the Openmoko Stammtisch Munich yesterday, we have once again discussed options to build a special GTA04 keyboard. And now I think we have found a way to really square the circle. The square being functionality and the circle being cost. The idea is to use: * off-the shelf pushbutons (Panasonic has some nice and very flat SMD buttons readily available at DigiKey) * a Shapeways made custom case * a not very sophisticated PCB with the buttons, a Bluetooth HCI module [1], a small LiIon battery and a microcontroller scanning the keyboard and supporting USB charging Now comes the key idea: having a shapeways printed case makes it possible to think about a keyboard built into a replacement battery cover. It makes it a little thicker than normal, but you can detach it and use it as a keyboard. A first cost estimate: * buttons: 25 ct each i.e. 16 EUR @ 64 keys * case: 20 EUR * bluetooth module: 20 EUR * PCB + MCU: 20 EUR * Battery, production etc. So it should be possible to build such a beast at less than 100 EUR (where we are back at the financial issues we generally have). And, it needs people working on it. Tasks will be to choose a HCI capable bluetooth module and a MCU, write software (firmware), work on the schematics develop 3D data for a Shapeways case. Who would be interested (and has time and skills to contribute) to join a team that starts working on such a project?

Hi, Nicolaus, Actually detached keyboard is almost useless for phone. It is not possible to use it any conditions expect then phone lays on some surface and you not holding it.

Re: [Gta04-owner] Keyboard for GTA04
Hey, I would like to have it rather swinging out than sliding. Then you could lock it at ca. 180° (with a bar or something) and by using the full back area of the case, it would be big enough for a expanded layout. As connector I would like USB more than bluetooth, but don't know how thin a cable can be.

Perfect on screen keyboard?
Hi, while we are talking about hw keyboard, it would be also nice to discuss software keyboard. My impression is that nobody really tried to make a perfect keyboard. So here is my idea: the has standard qwery layout. The keys are twice as high as wide. Two keys are always grouped in one square - like in the picture: +-+-+-+ | q w | e r | t y | +-+-+-+ You can press the letter and it normally types it. But you can also press and hold the square and move left/right and it types the left or right letter in square. E.g. press and hold qw sqare, move to left and release: it types q press and hold qw sqare, move to righ and release: it types w This has the advantage, that you are targeting twice as big square. You can see it in action here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZAaSMYPcec Maybe there could be 4 letters in square variant: +-+-+ | q w | e r | | a s | d f | +-+-+ where you press the square and select letter by moving upright/upleft/downright/downleft.

Re: Keyboard for GTA04
Hi, my idea would be a very stable leather case for the GTA4. I would attach a bluetooth keyboard to the cover, that the keyboard opposes the screen, if closed. The leather case should stable enough, that if it is open, you hold it with both hands, and type with your thumbs, while looking on your GTA4 in landscape mode. Kind of the same concept as the clamshell Zauruses. The bluetooth conection has the advantage, that you can bend it a thousand times, it will not break, like cables.
