New design (was Re: Samsung M7600)
U Uto, 10. 02. 2009., u 12:15 +0100, Helge Hafting je napisao/la: If I were to design something new, I'd go the other way instead. Stretch the neo sideways, get a 640x640 square screen. Better for maps. You can fit a more finger-friendly software qwerty keyboard, and still have room on the screen above. And there'd be more room in the case - for a bigger battery, bigger speaker, extra microsd slot and a hole for the stylus. But it'd be too big for some people. :( Helge Hafting You mean something like this but without keyboard http://androidmesh.com/devices/exceda-android-handheld-smartphone-comming-on-march-221 Yup, it would be too big and too ugly. signature.asc Description: Dio poruke sa digitalnim potpisom ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Cellphone sizes
U Pet, 02. 01. 2009., u 00:57 +1300, Ben Wilson je napisao/la: Sean's comment that 3G modules are currently too big has got me thinking about cellphone sizes. Maybe it's just me but I don't really see the fascination with keeping phones small. I would be happy with a phone larger than GTA01/02. Something a bit smaller than a Sony PSP. Really the only size constraint i have is the size of my pockets, which are quite big :) A PSP-like sized phone would relax the size constraints that were present in gta01/02 development and allow a wider range of chipsets to be considered. There would be room for some of the wish-list items such as an external flash slot, empty internal space for add-ons, fully powered usb port, IR remote control port, external analog and digital IO, much bigger battery, few more button/wheels and of course maybe a 3G module. It would also allow for a bigger screen which I think helps any touchscreen phone. However I guess a phone that size might not appeal to everybody? Ben. You are right! I have only small pockets and that device would be more like MID than cellphone. A lot of people would need to carry bags because of it which is bad. signature.asc Description: Dio poruke sa digitalnim potpisom ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
