> ever heard of the touchbook?! or joojoo... or one of the 1894 "mee too" ipad clones coming out (varying from arm based to x86 based). there is no room for a freerunner core based pad... - pushing that many pixels means more grunt. the gta02 already couldnt handle what it had. by a large margin. just buy one of these me-too pads and fidddle with it. hell if "tangogps" is the killer app - does an open os matter? as long as you can compile it and install it (toouchbook is there already for that - and it's open. not the schematics - though if you look carefully its actually a slightly modified beagleboard - so design is open actually), and os is open. the other me-too's on x86 will be pretty much just as open as any other netbook (give or take) - and yes. we know. imgtec, sgx, closed gpu. that's the case everywhere. no news there and no solution to is unless you design your own gpu... good luck. :)) -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
