Layout could be changed via software. What is actually printed on keys, does not matter much, it is changable on user side. Or just don't print it, a la http://www.daskeyboard.com/model-s-ultimate/ . :) For me, it's the tactile feedback of a hardware keyboard I like--and I don't mean making the phone vibrate or the whole screen's clicking down or the phone's making a click sound when I hit a key, but being able to clearly /feel/ the edges of the keys so I know what key I'm hitting before I hit it and even when my finger is covering the keys. No idea if you could simulate it well enough with something like Senseg's (electro-static) haptics technology ( http://senseg.com/ + http://senseg.com/technology/senseg-technology ), but I have my doubts, and I'm sure patents and licensing costs make that a no-go, anyway.

On http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_FreeRunner everyone can read: The FreeRunner can be purchased from the Online Store http://www.openmoko.com as of July 3, 2008. The software available on the phone makes it suitable for power users and developers only -- it is not yet ready for the general consumer. So whining that it is not ready for the regular user is kind of sad. There is a difference between a regular and a power user, and that is not only the letters it takes to write the words. Yeah, now we just have to figure out a way to let all those regular users who are under the incorrect assumption that they must be power users because they once downloaded/installed a insert GNU/Linux distro here ISO that they are in fact not power users... (Or, worse yet, someone who has been a Windows sys admin for 10 years...) Unfortunately, those who don't have the experience to decide whether they actually want a FreeRunner without that text are probably most likely to incorrectly assume they must be power users.

The payment site is verifying the Referer header and my browser was not sending that header. The off-network computer I tried was configured to send the Referer, so it worked on that one.

Seems this one has something to do with my NAT'ing firewall/router. When I tried from a computer with a direct connection to the Internet, it went through without a problem. I tried all combinations of Firefox 2, Internet Explorer, and Firefox 3 and the only difference in the systems was the network connection (and the fact that the one that worked--with the direct connection--was running Windows, but I'm pretty sure that's not the issue). As I really wanted to get the phone, I didn't mess around with NAT settings to see exactly what was causing the issue, but I'm happy to do further testing. I really hope their web site recognizes that internal networks exist, too... Mike ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

So Gateway Error 500 is Hi Trust's way of saying Credit Card Declined. I called Citibank, got them to lift the block, and the transaction went through smoothly after that.

What exactly does he mean by that? It sounds like he's saying that the industry is going to ignore the rules of open source and wants open source developers to ignore the rules of the industry?

Re: Free Runner price vs iphone 3G price

Please elaborate on your calculations. Well, ATT says that the new subsidy will cost them $600M. So, I assume he just divided that figure by the total number of these new iPhones that ATT will ever sell and added that to the $199 (with contract) consumer price for the new iPhone. ;) http://news.smh.com.au/technology/att-to-take-earnings-hit-from-iphone-subsidies-20080610-2o3s.html Mike ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Library can handle MP3 id3tag encoding

AFAIK, the encoding that in the id3tag can't be decided, it maybe ASCII, UTF-8 and others which sometimes cause the software to decode some error character. The libid3tag can do raw reading to id3tag but not handle the encoding easily. Have you looked at TagLib? http://developer.kde.org/~wheeler/taglib.html (Though it's at the KDE website, it doesn't require the KDE libs.) Don't know how well it handles encodings, but MythMusic recently switched from libid3tag to TagLib.

Be open, give the community more detailed information; when is it likely to be released, why and why not? The OpenMoko project, as it appears to others, is a failure of the open source model rather than the visible example of the success of open development that it rightly should be. I've been expecting the opportunity to buy a Neo for over six months now, and it seems to be that the only way in which to obtain a small form-factor smartphone is to pop into the cathedral and buy an iPhone.
