Sun Jun 3 17:00:34 CEST 2007

Hi list,
I got some news to share with you.
As of Mickey's OpenMoko-talk at the Berliner LinuxTag (LinuxDay) there
are some new hardware information:
Phase 2 (GTA-02) will feature:
-a 2D/3D-Graphics Accelerator
-256MByte of Flash Memory
-WiFi
-updated battery: 1700mAh
And the finally thing everybody has been asking for:
2 Accelerometers. F**k yeah. Looking forward to it.
(Has anyone heard any updates concerning possible multi-touch-abilities
of the neo yet?)
Additional IRC-info I got: :)
[16:14:29] <Elrond> ... is GTA02's gsm module now connected to the PMU,
so that we have full control over the GSM?
[16:14:29] <stefan_schmidt> Elrond: yes
[16:14:29] <stefan_schmidt> Elrond: We can fully shutdown GSM
[16:14:29] <mickey|berlin> that, and we can finally measure the current
[16:14:29] <mickey|berlin> no more uncontrolled sucking from the battery
[16:14:29] <mickey|berlin> at least we know how much pwr we consume then
