I didn't mean the imply the Ipaq CPU (200MHz StrongARM) would be insufficient, merely that from usability standpoint. The "holy grail" would be working on 16-33MHz *dragonball* (== 68000) processors. *That* would be impressive. Doing this on a strongarm is easy. I'm not sure what the audio output from the ericsson bluetooth headset is, when it connects to a PDA. I've asked Monty (the ogg guy) and some others, and they think a 50MHz ARM7 is more than sufficient for the compression; getting it down a 33MHz 68000 (like in the recent high-end palm devices) would be cool. > I've toyed with the idea of porting SpeakFreely to Ipaq, but have > not actually done anything at this point. > > I've x-posted to coderpunks, since that group is more germane. > Serious further discussion should be over there, IMHO. > > Peter Trei > > > > > > > > > ============================================================================ > ================ > This e-mail, its content and any files transmitted with it are intended > solely for the addressee(s) and are PRIVILEGED and > CONFIDENTIAL.
