odivnah, not yet.01:21
odivchecking ebay, might go with one of those iGos.01:21
TonyMaroodiv:  I got the Think Outside "universal" and other than the fact it weighs twice what my Nokia does, I love it.01:25
onionnow what.. wlan scanning works only if device is flat on the table01:27
odivYeah, looking at those. How much did you pay?01:28
odiv~$65?01:28
TonyMaroodiv:  $76 + ship:01:29
TonyMarohttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ORGD64/105-8045011-633562501:29
TonyMaroIt's got a stainless steel outside, and a nice zipper case for it.  Feels very solid.01:30
TonyMaroCompany bought, so I wasn't too worried about the price ;-)01:30
TonyMaroI understand you can get drivers to make the HP Ipaq keyboards work.01:30
*** etrunko has quit IRC01:30
TonyMarobut this think outside worked first try01:31
rcknightTonyMaro: how does it work holding the nokia? Can you adjust any?01:35
TonyMarorcknight:  I don't use the stand - I use the Nokia's.  The stand stores in the back of the keyboard, and I've only taken it out once.01:36
*** GnuKemist has joined #maemo01:36
TonyMarorcknight:  trying it now01:36
TonyMaroSeems to be only a 45 degree prop01:37
rcknightyou have 770 or 800?01:38
*** script has quit IRC01:38
TonyMaro800.  I'll post a pic of the stand in a second01:38
TonyMaroGotta BT it off my phone first01:39
rcknightok. thanks,01:39
* rcknight has 770.01:39
TonyMaroThat's odd... neither of my mmc cards are showing in the file explorer.  Uhoh.01:41
*** Andy80 has quit IRC01:41
odivI wish my 770 had ports on the side like an 800.01:41
odivah well.01:41
*** oil has quit IRC01:43
TonyMarorcknight:  Here ya go, a really bad pic, but shows the stand:01:43
TonyMarohttp://www.maro.net/ns/kbstand.jpg01:43
TonyMaromy leather case has a stand built in, which is what my nokia is propped with01:44
TonyMaroactually I have the stand backwards from the orientation of my nokia in that pic01:44
TonyMarothe two pins sticking up would rest on the back of the Nokia, not the flat part.01:44
TonyMaroThe front of the stand is a soft rubber with dimples in it to prevent slippage.01:45
odivSo what indispensable things do you guys do with these?01:45
TonyMaroodiv: Play games?01:45
TonyMaro:)01:46
*** Andy80 has joined #maemo01:46
TonyMaroI also wrote a nice Bible + Book of Mormon study application for it.01:46
TonyMarothat's really what mine gets used for most - reading.01:46
pupnikhey TonyMaro nice job on that game01:47
*** Ryback_ has quit IRC01:47
TonyMaropupnik:  Thanks!01:48
pupnikAre you more interested in making it like a roguelike, or a plot-driven RPG?01:49
TonyMaroPlot driven01:49
TonyMarovery "Bard's Tale"-ish01:49
pupnikNice01:49
*** matt_c has joined #maemo01:49
pupnikWell keep at it - you probably won't get too much feedback early on.  The portion of the community into gaming is not very large.01:51
odivYeah, I plan to use mine for reading, mostly.01:52
TonyMarorcknight:  Hey, here's 2 more pics for ya:  http://www.maro.net/ns/closed.jpg    http://www.maro.net/ns/open.jpg01:52
odivI have a palm lifedrive that I was reading on before this.01:52
odivI wish there were buttons on both sides of the 770 though.01:52
odivah well.01:53
pupnikodiv did i show you my mockup of a tablet with that?01:53
odivIt seems a little more akward than the palm to hold while reading because of button placement. I might just not be used to it yet.01:53
TonyMaroI'm all about making interfaces that don't require the stylus, and barely rely on the buttons.01:53
TonyMaroThummim has two screen based buttons for forward / backward.01:53
*** matt_c has quit IRC01:53
TonyMaroon the right side01:53
TonyMaroyou can use those instead of the hardware button01:54
pupniknice01:54
TonyMaroI'll also let you open any plain text document for reading, and support bookmarks and highlighting for them.01:54
TonyMaroit'll*01:54
TonyMaroGeeze my RAZR takes some horrible pictures.01:56
TonyMaroYou can't get them to not smear for anything01:57
pupnikpics of an lcd screen - or in general?01:57
TonyMaroin general01:57
TonyMarolooking at those keyboard pics I just posted showed just how bad it is01:57
TonyMaroand I reduced those from the original res.01:57
pupnikheh01:57
TonyMaroI'll never buy another RAZR.  I got 6 for us, and every one of us hate them.01:57
pupnikwhat else is suboptimal?01:58
TonyMaroThe darn keypad... every person who has one complains they misdial all the time.01:58
odivand I'm done work.01:58
odivThanks again for the help.01:58
pupnikok - cheers01:58
TonyMarohave a nice night01:58
*** odiv has quit IRC01:59
TonyMaropupnik:  Not to mention, they required encrypted games, you can't install any freeware software on it, or buy from a third party other than your carrier.01:59
pupnikbleh01:59
pupnikhow is dialing on that flat number pad?02:00
pupnikthere's a very cheap benq that copies the razr design - similar pad02:00
TonyMaropupnik:  Like I just stated - we all hate the number pad.  You'd think the buttons were big enough to hit, but I'm always pushing the wrong button.02:00
pupnikoh i missed that02:00
TonyMaroThe only time I dial right on the first try is if it's stored in the address book, lol02:01
*** krau is now known as krau|away02:01
TonyMaroI was a victim of Moto Marketing...  I bought into the hype when they were released.02:01
TonyMaroMy next phone will probably be a cheap Samsung.02:02
* pupnik must nap now02:05
TonyMaropupnik:  I think the biggest problem is the keypad - there's no real tactile feedback from the keys like with a traditional pad.02:05
TonyMaropupnik:  Nite02:05
pupnikyeah -02:05
*** pupnik is now known as pupnikzzz02:05

erstazi(:04:58
skiburWhat are some of the Cons of the N800?04:58
erstazia 3 ton truck can break it04:59
erstaziskibur: there is not any pullout keyboard, so you have to tap (or use your finger) on the virtual keyboard... or ssh to the device like I do04:59
skiburThinking of buying a N800.  I currently with DSLinux Nintendo DS Lite.04:59
erstaziDamn Small Linux?05:00
_MonkeyDamn Small Linux is great on older pc's, the XFCE DE is very easy flowing05:00
skiburo05:00
skiburno05:00
erstaziah05:00
erstaziok05:00
skiburLinux on the Nintendo DS Lite05:00
robl^Worst thing about it is the email app.  Could use a few tweaks05:00
erstaziskibur: yes Damn Small Linux is a distro05:00
skiburyeah, that too05:00
erstazirobl^: well, thats if someone wants to use an email client or just choose to use web based mail...05:01
erstaziI have to deal with being secure so I either encrypt my harddrives when using an email client or use web based05:01
erstaziI have a 770 and I am happy with it05:02
skiburhum..05:02
skiburStill don't Know if I should buy one.05:03
erstaziI might go for a n800 later on but right now, its what satisfying to the person... I don't need a camera but 2 SD slots would be nice!05:03
robl^erstazi: true..but as a device marketed as an internet communication device.. The email lacks a bit in features05:03
erstazirobl^: I see the point... I am not even sure what the OS2007's default mail client is... but if its based off evolution, I will agree, it needs tweaked05:03
erstaziI wouldn't want to be the one who ported all these apps for nokia05:04
erstazievolution was an instant turn off for me05:04
erstazibut thats because of my need for security05:04
robl^skibur: i bought an n800 a few days ago.. I love it, but there are a few minor rough edges...all can be fixed in software05:05
skiburo ok05:06
skibur$39905:06
skiburlike, can I have thunderbird, kopete, bash, xterm, ssh, and emulators etc.?05:06
robl^erstazi: yeah... Not sure if the email is based on evolution...evolution does better than the bundled one on os200705:07
robl^I have bash, xterm, pidgin/gaim, ssh, bash installed05:07
*** rwhitby has quit IRC05:08
*** NickDe has quit IRC05:09

erstaziskibur: yes05:10

skiburamazon is for $360 new05:10
robl^Bash has no tar...its a separate binary05:10
robl^I got mine for $150 after a gift card and sale price05:11
erstazirobl^: yeah, the tar is a pain though05:12
erstaziskibur: http://www.buy.com/prod/nokia-n800-internet-tablet/q/loc/101/204055141.html05:12
erstaziskibur: I got my nokia 770 for $129 on there05:12
erstazione place were selling them for $330 brand new05:12
skiburthanks05:13
robl^Not had a need to try tar yet..  Only had it a few days05:13
erstazirobl^: well, I usually use scratchbox to extract and build packages... but was in need of a quick extract05:15
erstazirobl^: and the tar is distributed with busybox, which is default last I checked05:15
erstazirobl^: I don't have a sources.list for OS2007 (only OS2006 at http://c-wd.net/maemo/sources.list) but other people have sources.list but for OS200705:16
erstaziyou might be able to switch everything to bora05:16
erstazibut I don't trust that05:16
erstaziskibur: if you buy from buy.com, do the free shipping, I got mine in 2 days and my buddy did the overnight and it took them a week to get it to him05:17
erstaziskibur: which isn't buy.com's fault, just the mailing service05:17
robl^I am trying to get mono 1.2.5 for n800..05:18
erstazirobl^: for OS200705:19
robl^Will play with scratchbox tomorrow05:19
erstazirobl^: what linux distro do you have on a pc?05:19
erstazior laptop05:19
robl^Yeah...for os2007.405:19
robl^My laptop is fedora 705:20
erstaziok, scratchbox might have rpm05:20
erstaziyeah it does05:20
erstaziI have CentOS, I had to think for a second05:20
erstazibut Debian-based is very friendly05:20
erstazirobl^: with scratchbox, you can use the latest sources at http://www.mono-project.com/Downloads05:22
robl^Thats the plan...would like to seebofficial mono pkgs though05:23
robl^That would make porting / writing new apps easier for me05:23
erstazirobl^: there are many howtos for installing scratchbox... including how to get the rootstraps and all that installed05:24
erstazirobl^: what language(s) do you know?05:24
robl^Been reading up on scratchbox...05:24
robl^Ohhh, c#, php, 4gl, a bit of ansi c05:25

pupnikso it should be doable for at least a subset of MIDI music14:02
lardmanyeah, you should be able to send the track data to the DSP and it will return pcm data14:03
lardmanlet it do the number crunching14:03
pupnikyeah multi-channel sample playback is just copy, multiply, add14:06
pupnikpitched playback without filtering/interpolation is trivial too.  then you need envelopes and loops which are also simple14:09
