Also spracht hank williams (Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:17:51 -0400): I also think that using their stuff on openmoko would be incredibly cool. I was kind of thinking in the opposite direction... running OpenMoko (the software platform) on their stuff :-) Maybe if Buglabs is successful, FIC/OpenMoko wants to make a GSM BugModule ;-) (or better, a connect module: GSM+BT+WiFi) best, Lalo Martins -- So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable. - personal:http://lalo.hystericalraisins.net/ technical:http://www.hystericalraisins.net/ GNU: never give up freedom http://www.gnu.org/ ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Not sure if they really have any modules yet - from the discussion yesterday it's still very alpha days at the moment.

Re: Buglabs
I dont know what you mean by whether they have modules yet. Clearly they are not shipping yet. On the other hand I saw (and held) modules in person, albeit not plugged in and demonstrated. They said these were production modules. It sounds like hardware is frozen, or close to frozen. Moreover, If what they told me in person (and whats on their website) is true, they will be releasing four modules by the end of the year. But none of the modules they are publicly discussing is a cell module.

I was kind of thinking in the opposite direction... running OpenMoko (the software platform) on their stuff :-) I think it could go both ways but their software stack is much more high level. Its java based and essentially each module looks like a webserver that knows how to talk to the hardware. Openmoko is essentially a linux distribution, and their stuff is really an API and communications model that sits on top of a linux. Yest they have to do their own low level stuff like openmoko, but they have an abstraction layer that openmoko doesnt. The other thing is they dont have a cell module yet - just wifi.

RE: Buglabs
Yep I meant that they don't have a ship date (or a frozen date) or even an open beta yet. Like I said I'm actively looking to support these guys as I think it's a great concept but.long way to go.

Are you saying you think Q4 07 is a long way to go, or do you just think they are being overly optimistic.

RE: Buglabs
Well Q4 07 is either 12 days away or 120+12-1 for December 30th depending on how you look at it :-) If they have just opened up the closed beta process this means they have some time to go before being available for retail.

Acutally Q4 07 means they have until December 31. ie around 3 months. To me, that doesn't seem like a long way to go, but thats why I asked.

Re: Buglabs
Yes, They are making some very cool stuff. Its a modular consumer electronics platform. I went to one of their mixers a few weeks ago. I think it is going to be a hit. I also think that using their stuff on openmoko would be incredibly cool.
