05:54.09jgw_anyone doing any work on drivers for the cdma radio in the htc apache, yet?
05:57.37llughjgw_, not that I have heard of, but since that is what I have myself I will care about it's working soon myself.

05:58.08jgw_i really do not like the xv6700's instability
05:58.43llughOh, it's MUCH better then the previous phone I was allowed to buy for Verizon... :r)
05:59.16llughWe just have to scrape off the MS-profit-margen-crud and get a serious Unix grade system running on it.
05:59.42jgw_thinking about laying down too much money for the 700p
06:00.32llughI expect that there will be more Linux folks working on the Palms, but we have standard connectors and the like on the xv6700, which counts for a lot.
06:01.51jgw_palm has mismanaged things so badly
06:01.56jgw_they handed MS the PDA market
06:02.09llughjgw_, are you in Oregon?
06:02.13jgw_yep

09:36.07RobHuHi guys
09:36.16RobHuHave any of you got the HTC Universal?
09:36.26florian_kcyes
09:36.39RobHuWhat do you think of it as a linux handheld?
09:36.54RobHuFrom the status page it doesnt look like it supports suspend etc atm... Which was a bit worrying
09:37.02RobHuWhat's the battery life like on it?
09:39.34florian_kcRobHu: its not ready for daily use, but help with development is always a good idea.
09:40.30RobHuhmmm... I don't have one I was thinking of getting one
09:40.58RobHuWhat are the major flaws atm ?
09:41.39florian_kclack for power management and lacking modem support
09:42.02RobHuPresumably you can shut it down and restart it though? What's the battery life like on it?
09:42.21RobHuI've seen some of them you see and they seem to have a nice keyboard and go for about £250 ($450?) on ebay.
09:43.06florian_kcyes sure... but no idea about the battery life
09:51.41RobHuI'm wondering if its a good choice of device or if there is something similarly priced or cheaper that is better.
09:51.57RobHuI like the keyboard, VGA screen, and wifi - are there any other devices you guys would recommend?
09:52.01WizMauihtc wizard ;)
09:52.15WizMauineeds some linux dev too ;)
09:52.43RobHuIs there a page for the wizard? I dont know what that is
09:53.34WizMauihttp://linwizard.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/HTC_Wizard
09:54.19RobHuthankyou
09:54.30RobHuIt's not vga :/
09:54.39RobHuThe Universal looks nicer :)
09:56.37CentrinOWizMaui: i think wizard need more than some dev like universal. But if we (somebody) do it it will be fine
09:57.09RobHuIs the Universal the best little hardware device that runs linux in that form factor with a vga screen? It looks like quite nice hardware
09:58.22CentrinORobHu: don't HTC made something like universal 2 ? (they stop to make under qtek and produce only as HTC)
09:58.52RobHuCentrinO: Interesting, I'll look in to that
10:00.47CentrinOits with wizard http://www.alza.cz/mda-htc-qtek-9100-64mb-128mb-ti-200mhz-240x320-foto-sd-minisd-gsm-gprs-edge-wifi-bt-ir-usb-pcktpc-5-0-160g-d58697.htm and http://europe.htc.com/products/htctytn.html
10:00.54CentrinOsorry for czech link
10:01.02CentrinOit was the firs i found
10:02.01RobHuHmm... I quite like the keyboard on the universal
10:02.12RobHuI also have no interest in the phone functionality :)
10:02.47CentrinOthey add UMTS support better CPU (they wrote)
10:02.56CentrinOand nicer keyboard
10:03.07CentrinObut they left 320x240 display
10:03.15RobHuIt says it's slide out though, the Universals isnt slide out
10:03.19florian_kcrob_w: well.. there are the Zaurus devices which are shipped with Linux. But they are expensive...
10:03.27RobHuI see
10:03.49RobHuThey keyboard on it doesn't look anything like as good as the universal
10:05.18florian_kcRobHu: well.. the universal keyboard looks nice, but i don't liek it that much. the one of my old communicator is way better.
10:05.43RobHuI gave it a try and it seemed quite nice.... then again it's an expensive gadget :)
10:05.53RobHuSomeone on my local LUG has just said he has one for sale :)
