 I'm speaking. 

:))) Very fine!  ;)))

Sorry to make some rumour to get this anouncement from you,
but I think you like it to get feedback that the people 
realy wants to hear you ;)


So OpenMoko/Neo1973 will standing on the FOSDEM shedule
quite soon? ;)))

 I just meant that I would prefer to walk around and hang out
 with you guys than sit at a booth all day.

Of course - IMHO no need to stay the full time at the table :)

But in the background of your nice interview I saw a nice Neo1973 
wall (when you have to choose - leave it at home and bring more
Neos with you) but when you can arrange to bring this mobil poster
wall with you it would be great (IMHO)!
You don't have to stand there all day 
- just put a small paper on the table:

be here again at 12:50h 
 and we'll go to lunch 
 togehter :) 

It would be just a good meetingpoint :)

Ah and the jumping person of the poster wall could be used
for designing the t-shirt (or sweet-shirts) togehter
with the slogan Free your phone



Conference System###
How many speaker and mics does the Neo1973 will have?
At the bottle opener side it would be nice to have speaker
and mic - that it would be possible to carry the neo at a neck
like a pendant (jewel) and have a sound system at your head,
but also a free speaking system for phoning...

So with this, it would be possibel to put the Neo1973 on a table
and have a directed free speak system as well. Now with Bluetooth
it could be used as a Conference System. 30 people with a Neo
sitting around a big table. Who's pressing his neo get the speach
(red light) and the other got via Bluetooth the audio signal, but
also Name of the speaker and his speaking time on the display :))

In a big confernce with a moderator, could be an auditorium, the
people which want to ask a question could register themself that
they want to ask and type their quetion to the moderator.
He will got the name (and maybe function of the questioner) and
a little bit later the question topic.
Then he can sort how many questions are there, group them and
call the questioner one by one.
The questioner will not need to got a mic, he will speak into
his Neo (and see how much time he still has for his question ...)


Such a system can recorde the speach and the question automaticaly
on every device so the people could take it directly with them
(for open discussion - some political or business discussion will
not be recorded - they have a mobil ban already)
and external people can join this easyly via GSM or internet and
also ask questions So such a conference system would be handy
also for small meetings.

Need for a clusterd megaphone via Bluetooth....

2007-01-22 Thread Robert Michel
Salve!

I need some help - it is realy a pitty that Sean
will not speach on a stage at the FOSDEM 2007

I'm probably just going to be walking around and hanging out with you
all.
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2007-January/001891.html

But when he'll bring some or many Neo1973 with him, a
software solution could help that everyone will
hear his smaller and bigger stories about OpenMoko
and the Neo1973:

Because the Neo1973 will have 
- Bluetooth free radio connections, yeahaa!!
- a mic
- two 1 watt loud speaker
- AGPS for getting the accurate time

Someone could programm a clusterd megaphone - the
Neo1973 at Seans neck will be the master broadcater
- his mic will be on and the stream will be broadcasted
via Bluetooth.
All others Neo1973 will be relays and loudspeaker 
- the AGPS will help to syncronice the audio output

Ok maybe with 1 ore more relays the delay will become
to long - than the will be the audio output inside a
room (with the help of AGPS) allows only direct receiving
from Seans Neo.

24 Neo1973 would gave 24x2x1Watt=48 Watt cluster blaster.

For the party in the night - we could syncronice our Neo1973
to play the same simultanious (on miliseconds accurate - thanks
to AGPS) and to make some fun - 12 of us could be the group for
right - the 12 others be the left
- or ths cluster blaster would automaticaly organise the best
sectioning.

For corner sectioning 
lll  
l   rrr


rrr lll
rr lll


If someone from the upper right goes to the upper left his
audio output would swith form r to l automaticaly.

So no need to rent a PA for a party anymore, when enough
people with OpenMoko/Neo1973 are invited :)


Cheers,
rob



PS: Sean - even without a speach or Neo1973s it would be 
a plesure to meet you in BXL - no fear that I/we would
expect to much - it is nice that you will come :)

Oh it was such a good opener to my idea of a clusterd megaphone
- Seans talk would transmitted to every Neo1973 at the FOSDEM...
at this moment is Mc'S song Connected running in my radio
Here we go - If you make sure you're connected
Wasn't the idea funny to broadcast all his talks? ;)

Okok I missed to write a seems It seems that Sean will not
speach - I was try to kidding him a little bit and would realy
like to listen to him - and I think all others here as well.

Or are you (or someone else) going to give a presentation with
Sean? C'one the best time for a presentation about OpenMoko/Neo1973
is when it just be published. 

Sean: I'm probably just going to be walking around and hanging out 
  with you all.
Ahhh  Have I'm be the fool and Sean was kidding me? His answer
was only about the table-offer.


I will be patient and will see if OpenMoko will find a way to be on
this list:
