Like Wolfgang said in http://n2.nabble.com/Weekly-Engineering-News-41-2008-td1336450.html , Openmoko assembled a team to focus on improving the user experience. Here is our todo list at the moment:
- Emacs phone services on top of dbus - touch and accellerometer based gui for nearly blind people - funky gui that changes every week for teenagers(Ok, I dont really want to develop this but i'd like to have it)
Here are some ideas of mine: - get emacs23 working, so one can use the dbus support of emacs 23. - make a dialer compatible with bbdb, and later addressbook.el - make a gnus backend for sms - a symbol chooser keyboard, much like you hinted at below. Heres my take on the idea: - start the "keyboard"(an emacs app) in a particular context(lets say m-x now, but its the same for adresses or whatever) - (1) show all unique prefixes in this context - (2) choose a prefix - (3) repeat from (1) with the chosen prefix, exit on a terminal symbol
