can be lost, forgotten and broken easily (the plug itself is a weak

P.S. Of course you can safely ignore my dumb mumblings but before doing 
so, consider that I closely dealt with mobile phones internals since 
2000 and usability is my primary job.

Ok...

What might be a possible solution would be a "user removable" camera.
Open back, remove battery, unscrew 3 tiny screws, unclick wire socket, 
remove camera from back.


Also, this might hypothetically allow upgrades.

I just want to remind you of my suggestion: Camera is internal but neo
has two backs, one with hole(s) for lens (and flash) and another one
covering the camera parts. See point 5 in

Having a camera trivially (pop back off, take piccy) enableable may be a 
problem.
It would be nice if the camera with one back was a fingerprint scanner, 
with the other a camera, and with no back, just a blur - from the 'no 
camera' rules point of view.

Gmail is responsive for me, and has a lot of good features that I like

And so far I have yet to see any proof of Google actively scr*wing
over their customers, by violating their privacy. Yes they add ads on
the side of the page by scanning your email, 



Yes, google is scanning *my* email and selling adds fitting to
the mail - maybe also selling informations about me to others...

You as gmail user has agreed that google is allowed to 
- scan *my* email

- to save *my* email as long as google likes.
  
That's why I do not like Google Mail. As we Russians say, "if you can 
see free cheese, beware: this usually means there is a mousetrap".As for 
me, Google collects too much private data.And even if Google is "not 
evil", when it comes that Big Brother asks to share some data, it is 
hard or impossible to deny such request. Google already had some issues 
with this. So, free cheese is cool but actually it often has high price 
hidden a bit. Each mouse knows this but not each and every human does 
:).It is interesting, does someone still remembers that privacy is still 
your right?
  
I can't understand why people so close-fisted not spending 
some US$/Euros a year for a mailservice without advertisement

and data mining. When more users would do this, better
services would be on the market.
  
I'm already learned that perfect service possible only if you'll set up 
your own server so everything works like YOU want. Everything else is 
... well, acceptable at most.

My sound was wrong - I just want make you think that you
are give away you and others privatcy for a free webmailservice.

And when the webmailer is also reason for trouble
  
I'm do not care about google mail. However it is quite strange that when 
I'm about to reply, there is actual message author in To: and mailing

For instance:

Proposed wiki page:

  How to respond to list email:

  1. Never remove any "re: " in the message subject. Some (not all) email
clients use this to identify the thread.

  2. If your email client adds the original poster and other 
addressees to the

"Cc:" field, remove them. You should always respond only to the list.
This will not work. Defaults will prevail. Everyone will do at least few 
replies with these ugly CCs before (s)he will get idea that something is 
wrong.Already tested on my own ass - got some of these double-messages 
just now.


Real fix: set up mailing list to put its own address 
(community@lists.openmoko.org) into into Reply-to: header and instruct 
people to hit Reply (not Reply all).I hope google cares about this 
header as well? These CCs are possible even with regular mail client, 
too. With default state of things I have to remove original sender 
manually and insert mailing list into To: field instead. In no way I 
want to mail to original sender directly when using mailing list.

Asterisk Channel Driver to allow Bluetooth Cell/Mobile Phones to be used as FXO devices.

2007-02-14 Thread Robert Michel
Salve!

A good friend of mine told me that there is a new
patch out for asterisk to use a mobile with Bluetooth
for *inbound* calls ;))) 

chan_cellphone-- Use Bluetooth cell / mobile phones as FXO devices

see: http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8919 
--snipp--
 Asterisk Channel Driver to allow Bluetooth Cell/Mobile Phones to be
 used as FXO devices.

 Multiple cell phones can be connected. Asterisk automatically connects 
 to each cell phone when it comes in range.
 Command to discover bluetooth devices. Useful for configuration Inbound 
 calls to the cell phones are handled by Asterisk, just like inbound 
 calls on a Zap channel.
 CLI passed through on inbound calls. Dial outbound on a cell phone 
 using Dial(CELL/device/nnn) in the dialplan.
 Application CellStatus can be used in the dialplan to see if a cell
 phone is connected. Supports devicestate for dialplan hinting.
--snapp--

The mobil must support the Bluetooth Handsfree Profile
http://www.bluetooth.com/NR/rdonlyres/94EAD32B-3E70-4AEC-9CD5-1E3F887A15F4/917/HFPSpecVersion1_0.pdf
 
As far as I saw on this webpage, yet supported/positiv tested
 phones are:

Nokia Series 40 phones
Nokia 6230i
LG TU500 CU500
RIM Blackberry 7250
Sony Ericsson 'T'&'K'&'V' Series phones
VK2020
Motorola L6 
Motorola V3 

For more info, read the bugtrackpage about this patch:
http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8919
and the cellphone.txt
http://bugs.digium.com/file_download.php?file_id=12910&type=bug 


This patch is about inbound calls, IMHO a good starting point
for integrate outbound calls via Bluetooth into OpenMoko. 
I expect when routing calls over an asterisk server, that
even hand over from GSM to Bluetooth and Bluetooth to GSM 
will be possible :))

Greetings,
rob

Re: Idea: Caller set ringtone

2007-02-14 Thread Derek Pressnall

I think the best way to handle this is to set up a vcard server
online.  Anyone can register their vcard which is associated with
their phone number.  Now when you get a call from someone, when you
add the number to your address book you'd have the option of
automatically retrieving the info online.  Security options can be set
so that your vcard is only visible to people you call, or specific
people, etc.
Ring tones, picture, etc. could be extended fields on the vcard (the
field would actually contain a URL pointing the the picture /
ringtone, etc.)  Well, maybe it's not a good idea to host the
ringtones, since that could get the hosting provider in trouble with
the riaa, etc.  But picture hosting shouldn't be an issue.

Looks like we brought down the server(s). We must have all jumped on at the

Let's give them a bit of time to fix the problem without forcing them to move
to bigger servers, which would take longer.

And perhaps we should set up mirrors as soon as possible. I've never set up a
mirror - what's involved in that?

2007/2/14, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Looks like we brought down the server(s). We must have all jumped on at the
same time.

Let's give them a bit of time to fix the problem without forcing them to move
to bigger servers, which would take longer.

And perhaps we should set up mirrors as soon as possible. I've never set up a
mirror - what's involved in that?

Catching touch input

2007-02-14 Thread Alan Ide

Ok, I have been pouring over the Wiki since it was opened today, and all I
can say is THANK YOU, and thats a WHOLE lot of data to go through. Oh and
the pictures sure are pretty.

Anyhow, I have decided to try some "testing" using SDL on this platform, but
obviously the Neo1973 dosnt have any keyboard or mouse input, only touch
screen (which I love BTW). So, how does one go about catching touch input to
use inside of a program? I assume its handled like a mouse click event,
passing the XY data and a clicked flag to a system variable somewhere, but
how do I access such data?? I have been looking for a breakdown of internal
OpenMoko library functions, but really confused by all the data.

To be honest, im not entirely sure where to look for my answer, that is why
I figured I would just ask you folks, since you seem so on the ball. Thanx
in advance.

SDL catches mouse input differently depending on which backend it uses, however 
to the SDL application programmer, you should just transparently get 
SDL_MOUSEMOTION and SDL_MOUSEBUTTON* events in our main loop.

SIM Interface

2007-02-14 Thread Andrew Papia
I am a SIM developer and I am very interesting in getting my hands on an open 
phone so I can develop mobile applications that make use of the SIM.  What is 
the interface to the SIM like on OpenMoko?  I've read you can query phone book 
entries.  What else can you do?  Can you send abitrary APDUs?

Help: Getting an OpenMoko Programming Environment Set Up on Ubuntu Linux

2007-02-14 Thread Ryan Kline

Hello Everyone--
	With all the excitement over all the new OpenMoko information, I am  
utterly confused about what I need to set up on my Linux VM to get me  
ready to program (even though i don't know how) for OpenMoko. I have  
already installed OpenEmbedded using the tutorial on the linuxtogo  
wiki (now on the OE website). I have an extremely basic knowledge of  
working with this stuff, so be as specific as possible. Thank you for  
all your previous help.

SIM = Simple Instant Messenger? 

I'm using SIM for nearly 3 years and I really like it. (although there are
some bugs, perhaps I could write you a mail later on) In my opinion it would
be nice to see SIM on OpenMoko.

It has a stylus, but no place in the case to hide it.

Re: openswan klips and nat-t patches for openmoko added

Actually, I meant it patched fine :)

Of course, we did find a bug in the nat-t patch today that in fact broke
nat-t when using NETKEY. The fix is confirmed and comitted to cvs and
will be in openswan-2.4.8 which I'll release tomorrow. So whoever is
gathering patches for openmoko, wait until the 2.4.8 nat-t patch is on
the ftp server tomorrow.

It took me a few hours today to get a working environment going, and openmoko
has been compiling for a few hours now and is still running. So no compile
test yet. And no, I have no physical hardware yet to test :P

Besides, this is just the kernel part. We also need to package up openswan
userland for the openmoko. But it will take me a while to get used to the
openmoko build system. I am new to SVN, openembedded, monotome and bitbake,
since for openswan we actually use git for the new trees, and cvs for the
2.4 tree.

There is more than one public archive for this list. Hiding your
e-mail-address is not an option in this scenario.
  


I'd add that public archives of mailing lists can be very helpful to 
non-subscribers looking for information that was conveyed on that list.


I regularly find answers to questions in the public archives of mailing

emulator?

2007-02-14 Thread Perry E. Metzger

I presume that the answer is "no", but is there software available to
emulate the hardware at this point for application development
purposes? (If not, I wonder if QEMU can be twisted into doing at
least part of it...)

we have a stylus that's way too cool to hide it in a device.

Sean was about to get some photos of that stylus, but then, as you
imagine, there's higher priority items for us at the moment.
