I think it's time for another attempt to address a long-standing problem with the Neo and the current software. Specifically, the way it works right now, no matter how you shut down the GTA01, the GSM modem is left powered up and running (it's wired up internally in such a fashion that even when the kernel powers off the CPU and all else that it can on the circuit board, the GSM modem continues to run).

Well, that was interesting. Not much response, so I take it that this isn't a particularly important item for most people.
I'll just drop this then; my proposed solution didn't get any good reviews first time around, and based on the lack of interest, I don't see any real point in re-opening that controversy. However, when openmoko gets around to resolving this problem, I'll be interested to see how the "official" solution is implemented. Until then, keep those Neos plugged in!
