I have a long shopping list of things I'd like to schedule on a regular basis. For instance, since gprs is rather slow for interactive use, I'd like to have the phone periodically fetch a list of RSS feeds, so that when I have a few minutes to look at the news and such there's a reasonably current version sitting on my phone. -- -- Dirk Bergstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://otisbean.com/ ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Web Browser?
What sort of browser will Openmoko have? From various postings on the lists I get them impression that there is a (somewhat) working browser, but the wiki page is very sketchy. Will/does it support the following? *) Javascript *) DOM *) Cookies In short, is it a real browser (like FF, Safari, Konqueror), or a half-baked thing like Blazer (the stock Treo 650 browser)? I have an idea for a browser-based ebook reader package that uses javascript to do autoscroll and page-drag (like Plucker)... -- -- Dirk Bergstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://otisbean.com/ ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Picture Viewer geocaching
David Samblas Martinez wrote: Ok I will auto-answer to this question based on you answer with more accuracy data based on http://www.eoss.org/pubs/nmeafaq.htm NMEA 0183 sentences= up to 82 Ascii chars--one sentence per second--82 bytes per second so 60*60*24*82=7084800 It's (probably) better than that, as long as you're not in constant motion. If you sit in one place for an hour, you don't need to store 3600 NMEA sentences that say the same thing. It shouldn't be too hard to write an algorithm that can tell the difference between moving and stationary, and store data accordingly. Depending on the degree of precision you desire, you can potentially reduce the storage requirements drastically. And if you're moving in an approximately constant speed and direction, you can throw away all the data points along any straight line segment, and only keep the beginning and the end. I believe that this is what Garmin devices do (based on the docs for my Garmin cycle computer). However, this all may be moot, because GPS sucks up no small amount of power. I don't know that the Freerunner will have the juice to run GPS all day long. My Garmin gets 10-11 hours out of an 800 mAh battery (it does some other bike-computer stuff, but that draws *very* little power, given that non-GPS cycle computers can run for months on a couple button batteries). The Freerunner has a 1200 mAh battery, and its also running a GSM modem, and doing other PDA-like stuff. Heck, if you're trying to store GPS data, you're going to have to have the processor awake the whole time, which is another drain. Hmm, then again, looking here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo1973_GTA01_Power_Management It says: This would imply that with the CPU constantly on in low power mode, GPS and GSM blipping on and off, and display off, the worst case power consumption is probably around 70mW, leading to a battery life of 2 days. So I guess we'll see when the hardware gets here... -- -- Dirk Bergstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://otisbean.com/ ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

You can expect much better battery life when we implement these changes. [...] that my very simple testing suggests should last for well over 12 hours. Twelve hours is great compared to the five the GTA01 gets now, but it's maybe a third of what I'd consider to be the absolute minimum for a usable phone. Can you give us an idea of how many hours of talk and standby you expect the phone to provide once all of these planned changes have been made? I want an OpenMoko because I want to carry a computer in my pocket. I want to run cron jobs that fetch content from the web. I want to use it as a wifi web browser. I want to turn it into a gps cycle-computer. And I want it to be my phone, which means that when I've done all of the above, it needs enough battery left at midnight to call a tow-truck when my car breaks down. My Treo 650 has an 1800 mAh battery, and even when it was new I never got more than three days off a full charge. Now that it's a few years old, I can barely make two days. If the GTA02 needs charging every day, after maybe a year the battery will be aging, and won't even last a whole day. That's not going to be very practical. Are you guys sure that 1200 mAh is going to cut it for what amounts to a portable computer? -- -- Dirk Bergstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://otisbean.com/ ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

It would be great to be able to frob the web UI while sitting on the couch, since that's a lot more expressive than slowly crawling through the two-line display on the box using the IR remote. Just because you don't want to do something with your phone doesn't mean that the rest of us share your feelings. This is open source, and it moves forward because people work on what interest them.
