| − | == Neo1973 - likes and dislikes ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Neo1973 is going in the right direction for the type of mobile phone I want, into the future.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Likes:
| |
| − | ** 640x480 high-pixel-density touch-screen display - wow - just what I'm after
| |
| − | ** Open source operating system with package management
| |
| − | ** Built-in GPS - great
| |
| − | ** Ethernet over usb connection - handy
| |
| − | ** Linux and Windows Mobile capable - having choice is good
| |
| − | * Dislikes:
| |
| − | ** micro-SD slot - in future please try to use SDHC (SD High Capacity) - micro-SD is fiddly, expensive, not capacious enough
| |
| − | ** no Wifi - this is necessary for a killer product - shame about the unopenness of the various wifi mobile chipsets
| |
| − | ** no keys - just touchscreen input is a bit of a pain, some keys (and maybe a slide-out full keyboard) would be good
| |
| − | ** appearance - not too keen on the style of the device ("pill-shaped") - Apple iPhone, Nokia N800 tablet, HTC TyTn, LG Prada have better "looks"
| |
| − | * Suggestions for future models:
| |
| − | ** USB host port - handy to connect all types of peripherals to the phone (usb keyboard, card reader, mouse)
| |
| − | ** Camera - 2 or 3 megapixel would be good
| |
| − | Rotation for personal video calls/conferencing would make this killer also
| |
| − | **An Accelerometer would be nice - provide user defined shake/tap controls
| |
| − | **IR Port - turn the Neo1973 into a killer Universal Remote
| |
| − | Possibly use the two previous together in order to automatically switch to
| |
| − | Remote Control mode when you flip the phone upside down to point the IR port
| |
| − | at A/V Devices, along with a "Location Profile" based on GPS location preset
| |
| − | **Vibration Module - for tactile feedback from key press of touch screen
| |
| − | **GPRS/EDGE adapter - High speed internet option for when WiFi AP isn't available
| |
| − | **OLED screen - for decreased battery drain and increased visibility in sunlight

Q: Dear all, who knows how to surf this wiki website without repeatly clicking the 'HomePage' and then going down to the page I want? Is there anything like 'Upper Layer'
Question about programming
If I wanted to learn how to write applications for the Neo1973, and have a couple years of C++ classes under my belt, where do I start? I'm not talking about creating a whole e-mail application or anything, but I know nothing about the software and how it operates. Thanks!
Question about Java programming
Geert Schuring: How can i help? Im a java programmer and would really like to get involved!
Transferring Palm Treo 650 Data & GPS
My two main interests are in Open Source GPS for OpenMoko and the getting of suitable South African maps and in the moving of data from Palm Treos to the Neo running OPenMoko.
Please tell me where I can get more information pertaining to the above.
