Re: Shipment of phones
Great !!! When you have more info about where and how we can order, please let us know. The Neo is the first item on my wishlist ( and I think I'm not the only one ;-) ) Jan On 2/28/07, Sean Moss-Pultz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Mon, 2007-02-26 at 08:23 +0100, Marc Verwerft wrote: I understood that the european distrubution was from phase 2 onwards (I.E. september 2007).

Re: Itch3: Anti-lost/theft protection
Euhhh, I do not want the thief to make international calls on my bill May be the phone should simulate that it's switched off ( to save power ) and send from time to time the coordinates. Jan. On 2/27/07, Aloril [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: When phone is lost and somebody picks it up, it would first ask PIN and have message in screen that says something like If you don't know PIN, give 1234. If user types 1234 then it presents 2 buttons: Contact owner of phone and Use phone (==I'm stealing this). If user selects Use phone, then it would present factory looking interface with empty address book, etc.. and quietly contact owner anyway and tell current coordinates ;-) Idea is keep thief using phone until police arrives and recovers it. If phone notices new SIM, it would go directly to I'm stolen mode. Maybe run under Linux-VServer http://www.linux-vserver.org/ in stolen mode. With suitable arrangement remote ssh connection to phone should be possible which would give nice control over stolen phone. There could also be a bluetooth headset and/or bluetooth watch. If it loses contact to phone, phone would complain loudly and if bluetooth gadget is enough smart it could complain too. This gadget could warn about low battery too. -- Aloril [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- If you don't like something, change it.

Re: Translators needed?
I prefer using my phone, pc, pda, ... in english, but I can do translation in dutch ( or at least a part ) I assume that a lot has to be translated.

Re: Phone enhancements
When the GPS senses you are zigzagging on a street, the phone could shutdown your engine too :-) Even people that are not able to drive a car can be stopped. A lot less problems in my town on sunday morning ;-) On 1/28/07, Declan Naughton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 1/28/07, Tehn Yit Chin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I know, couple the breathalyser with the GPS, the phone could detect you are driving while drunk and call the cops! ;-) lol!
