javispedroironically enough, now that the -devel version plays yoshi's island, yoshi's has become the game I play most :)00:11
* javispedro hopes to find time to polish the fremantle gui a bit this weekend 00:13
Stskeepswazd: http://www.daimi.au.dk/~cvm/composite.png - is opacity a good enough effect to be able to use?00:14

zerojayPC4.3" would be nice.00:57

luke-jrO.o00:59
wazdStskeeps: btw, I've gout an email from som desperate designer :)01:00
pupnik_cheapest i found for n900 in germany was 530 euro01:00
wazdStskeeps: with neo nuckname01:00
*** hellwolf has quit IRC01:01
pupnik_530 isnt bad if it really replaces standalone gps and caöera01:01
pupnik_camera01:01
mavhcassuming you haven't already bought a camera01:01
zerojayYeah, it'll be nice to carry one device instead of two.01:02
zerojayPut away my N810 and N95.01:02
mavhc1 computer/phone and 1 spare battery01:02
chxyuck, almost 800 usd01:02
zerojayI've never carried a spare.01:02
pupnik_n900 = N810 + phone + (video) camera + gps.  4 devices01:03
chxi dunno, really01:03
zerojayI used my n95 for bluetooth gps/tethering/camera.01:03
chxi am happy with the BT GPS receiver sitting separately in my backpack w its own battery01:04
zerojayTerrible battery life though.01:04
chxwhen i want to phone i want a small sleek device01:04
chxwhen i want to ssh i want a big screen and big keyboard (relatively big)01:04
pupnik_i dont carry backpack to my roman-style orgies01:04
chxthese dont fit01:04
chxagain i dunno01:05
pupnik_my guests love n810 for youtube/web, but want faster response and larger screen01:05
chxi do not need a smartphone of any kind at a roman style orgie01:05
*** Vulcanis has joined #maemo01:05
pupnik_so a 770 with omap3, no gps, no phone, and 5-6" screen would fit the bill01:06
pupnik_a coffee-table browser01:06
* javispedro imagines battery life measured in minutes with a 1 Ghz cpu.01:07
*** Maiku has joined #maemo01:07
javispedrodang. an engadget commenter got to that days before me :P01:07
Maikuhi, I've been having trouble with dhcp on my n810, wide-dhcpv6 won't start (although I'm on an ipv4 network I didn't see any other dhcp clients)01:08
pupnik_javidpedro - will you give drnoksnes sdl window a hildon binding?  i have to use kilÃl sometimes01:08
javispedrothe launcher does weird things If I do01:08
pupnik_ok01:09
pupnik_not a prob for me! :(01:09
pupnik_:)01:09
*** qwerty12_N810 has quit IRC01:09
javispedroas a "workaround" I mapped the swap hard button to quit if launched from gui01:09
pupnik_swap hard button?01:09
javispedro"Swap application" front button ,or whatever is called01:10
pupnik_do i need to look in con.. aahh01:10
javispedroeither way.01:10
javispedroI'll probably need to rewrite the whole of video output01:10
javispedroand will do something similar to rst's01:10
javispedro"banging" omapfb directly.01:11
pupnik_mode 7 stuff is amazing fast - almost as fast fps as regular01:11
pupnik_wolw01:11
pupnik_rst's emu?01:11
javispedroall sources seem to indicate that Xsp is a stub in fremantle :(01:11
javispedroyes01:11
pupnik_yes daniel wanted to get rid of it - seems he won01:11
javispedrowell, come to think of it.01:11
javispedroI don't know what to do.01:12
javispedrobanging omapfb will get speed but will lose the "composited" goodness.01:12
javispedrobah, I'd need a device :P01:12
pupnik_a n810?01:12
javispedrona, the n900, on the n810 everything seems ok (sdl_updaterect calls do not waste too much time)01:13
javispedrothe only benefit to using omapfb directly there would be to try to do something interesting with tearsync01:13
*** parigaudi has joined #maemo01:13
javispedropupnik_: yoshi's island is one of the most taxing games currently. and kirby I tried with the C cpu interpreter and was dead slow (slower than 5fps; the frameskipping code can't handle that)01:14
javispedro(on n810, of course)01:14
zerojayWhich Kirby?01:15
*** hannesw__ has quit IRC01:15
javispedrosuper star / fun pack01:15
javispedrosa-101:15
zerojayAh.. yeah.01:15
*** hannesw__ has joined #maemo01:15
zerojayStreet Fighter Alpha 2 and Megaman X3 should also be on your test list.01:15
pupnik_other people should test01:16
javispedrosa-1, which is an overclocked 65c816. so I used the same approach as the upstream snes9x and just used some macros around the  CPU C interpreter (which I pulled from PocketSNES :) ) to "convert" it  into a SA-1 interpreter.01:16
*** ArSa has joined #maemo01:17
*** JoeBrain has joined #maemo01:17
pupnik_... drpocketsnes had no sa-1?01:17
javispedronope01:17
pupnik_nice01:17
*** bilboed has quit IRC01:18
javispedroideally I'd use the asm 65c816 interpreter for the sa-1, but that's way more work01:18
pupnik_all those damn chips to emulate, trashing the cache01:18
javispedronot only that,01:18
javispedrobut the sa-1 is really powerful, way greater clockspeed01:19
javispedrotriple iirc01:19
*** qwerty12_N810 has joined #maemo01:19
pupnik_actually snes is kind of too heavy/slow to worry about tearsync01:20
javispedroprobably.01:20
* javispedro remembered he needs to write a sw 2x scaler01:21
javispedrobah, firefox crashed01:22
javispedrogoing to bed then01:22
pupnik_are you keeping a changelog of the stuff you do?01:22
javispedrognit01:22
pupnik_ok01:22
javispedroah01:22
javispedroyes01:22
pupnik_cool.  cheers€a!01:22

neatojoneshello.  Does anyone know how to fix a loose screen connector ribbon?05:44
pupnikreplacement ribbon?05:48
*** zz_jhford is now known as jhford05:49
neatojonesAny idea where to get one?05:49
GeneralAntillesOpen 'er up and reseat it?05:50
neatojonesI'm guessing my N810 is just permanently a gonner.05:50
GeneralAntillesOr is the ribbon itself damaged?05:50
neatojonesI opened it up.  But couldn't see any problem with it.05:50
neatojonesdidn't want to pull it off and then re-set it on, if it was only going to mess things up worse.05:50
GeneralAntillesThe connector tends to come loose.05:51
neatojonesthe touch screen is very innacurate and only occaisionally works.05:51
GeneralAntillesSo it has to be reseated.05:51
neatojonesyeah.05:51
neatojonesany good way to do that?05:51
GeneralAntillesNot usually an issue with the ribbon itself.05:51
neatojonesfigured that might be the case.05:51
GeneralAntillesJust disconnect and reconnect05:51
GeneralAntillescrashanddie has done it05:51
GeneralAntillesIf you want to talk to him before you try.05:51
neatojonesdoes it slide back on easily if it is removed.  I read in the Nokia manual that it has to be thrown away if it is pulled off.05:51
neatojonesthanks GA05:52
neatojonesI might try that.05:52
zerojayvsync tearing on N900 apparently now fixed: http://www.valeriovalerio.org/?p=26605:55
GeneralAntillesI'm pretty sure he was paid off.05:59

ShadowJKwhat was the problem with "tearsync" anyway?06:26
ShadowJKlcuk has tear-free liqbase on n8x0, right..06:27
RST38hShadowJK: Run iNES, look at some game thta does horizontal scrolling06:28
RST38hThe "step" effect you see is the tearsync. Some people absolutely hate that.06:29
ShadowJKif they use sdl or regular x11 pixmaps it'll tear even on a PC..06:29
RST38hyou can avoid that by doublebuffering06:29
*** SjB has quit IRC06:29
RST38hor by blitting on vblanks06:29
*** blassey has quit IRC06:30
ShadowJKyeah but nobody (except lcuk) actually makes any effort to do that?06:30
RST38hsome people do06:31
RST38hI do not because it will cost me framerate06:31
ShadowJKso I'm just a bit puzzled how people expect it to work :)06:31
ShadowJKor how one would fix it for apps that don't ask for it06:32
RST38hyou have to use doubebuffer explicitely06:32
*** riot has quit IRC06:33
ShadowJKeven if you ask SDL for it, SDL doesn't do it when outputting to regular X afaik06:34
*** Firebird9 has quit IRC06:34
RST38hnot sure, I am not using sdl...06:35
ShadowJKwhat do you use?06:35
RST38hI use GTK+ Image widget when in windowed mode, fb0 + omapfb ioctl()s when in full screen mode06:37
ShadowJKyeah gtk isn't going to lift a finger for it06:37
ShadowJKa side effect of compositing, if used on n900, would be that, if the hw can do it, it would be easier to make regular x11 calls tearfree06:39
*** riot has joined #maemo06:39
ShadowJKthose games are probably using SDL, and sdl doesn't do tearfree on X :/06:41
*** riot has quit IRC06:45
* RST38h doubt x11 will be any faster on n90006:49
ShadowJKlol06:49
RST38hon n810 omapfb is significantly faster than using x11 (with gtk+ widget or direct x11 window)06:49
ShadowJKin the ideal case you save a memcpy()06:50
ShadowJKbut gtk is far from ideal efficiency :)06:50
RST38hgtk is a pig, indeed06:51
RST38hunfortunately, there is no way to get xwindow from hildon application window06:51
ShadowJKthat and application devlopers never even look at what their apps do06:51

ShadowJKbuiltin doesnt do flac (and ogg-support package doesnt add it)06:55
ShadowJKukmp seems usable, and faster than builtin06:56
ShadowJKit shows it's python though :)06:56
kulvebuilt-in player will do flac and ogg in n900 with ogg-support06:57
ShadowJKIt claims I'm currently listening to: [u'029d9\u0163d... too long to type in06:57

MaceN8x0pfft11:55
MaceN8x02 more cluttered channels11:55
suihkulokkithe price difference comes down to different taxes and other eu shit (like the e-waste directive) and to the fact that as fragmented market eu customers are willing to pay more11:55

johnxKhertan_telework, not necessarily13:05
johnxthat screen is actually displayed by X1113:05
johnxso anything that would normally be causing a reboot loop, could be applying in that situation13:06
*** jhford is now known as zz_jhford13:06
Khertan_teleworkalterego: of course as it s reboot every times it doesn't charge13:06
Khertan_teleworkso battery life is short13:06
alteregoI meant before this problem :)13:06
Khertan_teleworkbut what is strange is that it doesn't occur everytime13:06
Khertan_teleworkalterego: before no prob13:06
alteregoThat is strange :) Well, kind of strange13:06
alteregoMaybe the charger has broken cable.13:07

Khertan_teleworkand while the nit is shutdown and charging13:08
alteregozaheerm: did you install it "manually" or did you use the install scripts?13:08
Khertan_telework(you know the false shutdown mode)13:08
zaheermalterego, install scripts13:09
alteregoHrm13:09
alteregoWell, I'd say try again :)13:09
alteregoI usually do a manual installation, but then I'm pretty fickle.13:09
alteregoI don't like the target names the script uses, so I wrote my own.13:10
* Khertan_telework is trying on other nokia charger13:11
alteregoI _really_ want to go to the summit, but I can't, it's a pain in the ass.13:11
alteregoI bet Murphy will be there and everyone will be handed free N900's and I'll miss out on it. ^.^13:11
johnxI did actually break a charger once, then followed it up by buying a charger that broke a week later13:11
Khertan_teleworki try the first charger on my phone13:12
alteregoNokia chargers are not exactly robust, I have several, but I leave them places so I don't move them, one in the office, one at home and one in the bag for emergencies/travel.13:12
Khertan_teleworkthe nit doesn't seems to reboot anymore13:12
alteregoI also have the USB charger.13:12

alteregoKhertan_telework: do you have a multimeter?13:14
Khertan_teleworkyep13:14

johnxor let it track with IR lights like a wiimote :>13:32

X-FadeKhertan_telework: as long as you know that there is a problem ;)13:33

Khertan_teleworkyep thanks13:33
alteregolbt, I know, and the N900 has two cameras :P13:34
alteregoAnyhow, you can pair a wiimote with the N900 and use that.13:34
zerojaywjt: We're going to go and take over the world tonight, Pinky?13:34
johnxalterego, wiimote needs two IR sources, so looks like two n900s :)13:34
johnxbut N900s tracking *each other* is kind of cool13:34
johnxlaser tag anyone? :D13:34
*** frade has joined #maemo13:35
alteregoA Wiimote and a sensor bar.13:35
alteregoIt's only interfacing with the N900, which could be plugged into your TV like a console and used to play some game.13:36
Khertan_teleworki didn't understand how a battery can output 4V when she is constructed to output 3.7V13:36
SpeedEvilKhertan_telework: it's not13:36
johnxyup, and I have this really nice battery powered "sensor" bar13:36
SpeedEvilKhertan_telework: the operating range of lithium-ion is from 3-4.2V13:36
X-FadeKhertan_telework: 3.7v is nominal.13:36
johnxactually works better than nintendo's13:36
johnxprobably uses brighter LEDs13:36
alteregoCool13:36
X-FadeKhertan_telework: 4.2v when full.13:36
SpeedEvilMaybe a little under 3 in some circumstances13:36
johnxbut if you had two N900s you *could* use their IR LEDs to act as a "sensor" "bar"13:37
Khertan_teleworkhum ... ok13:37
X-FadeSpeedEvil: Well, I don't think Nokia would allow a device to go under 3.6v or something like that.13:37
alteregoI ca'm finding it hard to justify getting one N900, let alone two.13:37
alteregoI will have an N900, I will buy it, but it's hard pursuading myself to spend 500 pounds on another gadget :/13:38
alteregoEven if it is the most amazing peice of kit around.13:38
johnxyeah13:38
johnxit'll be a while after launch til I get mine13:38
* ShadowJK spent 400 on new phone a couple of months ago :(13:39
alteregoI love my N96+N81013:39
SpeedEvilX-Fade: 3.6 has about 15% of the energy left till it reaches the normal threshold of 3V or so13:39
alteregoBut there are things that the N810 doesn't do that are stopping my from writing the applications I want to write, the N900 has these facilities.13:39
zerojayI'm very looking forward to dumping my N95 + N810 for an N900.13:39
johnxI think my n800 will still find plenty of purpose13:40
johnxmaybe for in car audio/navigation13:40
alteregoI gave my N800 to my brother when I got the N81013:40
alteregoHe loves it, like I love my N810.13:40
alteregozerojay, I am also, it's the ultimate in convergence device for me ;)13:40
X-FadeSpeedEvil: yes, but the drop off is quite steep and with temperature changes you risk not being able to boot anymore to start the charge.13:41
ShadowJKspeedevil: NITs shutdown around 3.5 actually :)13:41
alteregoIs there any reason I shouldn't order an N900 fromn the states?13:42
alteregoRather than getting one from the UK?13:42
zaheermwarranty?13:42
johnxalterego, I don't know what they'll do in terms of WLAN channels13:42
SpeedEvilShadowJK: yeah - the amount of time you have after 3.6 goes down _sharply_ with slightly older batteries.13:42
SpeedEvilShadowJK: so shutting off earlier makes some sense.13:43
alteregoHrm13:43
* alterego sighs13:43

alteregoIt is at the current exchange rate.13:44

johnxKhertan_telework, might be the same for me :/13:44

RST38htill: Not eletrically16:20
javispedrothere's actually a "usb charger class" spec in usb.org16:20

RST38hmgedmin: the old fashioned 3.5mm was actually just right - thin enough to fit, yet thick enough to be durable16:26
crashanddieRST38h: you have vendor and model information, no specific name16:26
crashanddieRST38h: and having a driver audit for specific strings is probably the worst idea I've heard in quite some time16:26
SpeedEvilcrashanddie: you also can have a device identifier string16:26
ccookeI think all of my 2mm chargers are at least slightly bent..16:26
crashanddieSpeedEvil: which is unique16:26
RST38hcrashanddie: this is sufficient for what is being suggested16:26

mgedminit's true that a third of my gazillion 2mm chargers kinda died16:27
mgedminand a second third look weirdly angled16:27
SpeedEvilcrashanddie: indeed - there is also a serial number16:27
RST38hcrashanddie: you do not really care if this hub is a unique one, as long as it has got the right product/vendor ids16:27
ccookeIf nothing else, every USB device provides a Vendor and Product identifier - each are 16bits IIRC16:27

alteregomojocafe: that one is fine for diablo16:31
crashanddieSpeedEvil: I have to agree with you on that. I've been a big supporter of having one main DC supply running along the house, just one big converter from AC to low voltage DC (48V or something), would eliminate the need of every single device using it's own power supply16:31
RST38hmgedmin: But not, as long as you use SB2 and only compile stuff in it, it is pretty harmless16:31

mgedminah, _that_'s the eclipse thing I vaguely heard about16:33

crashanddiemojocafe: no, esbox is the project that packages eclipse in the manner you're using it16:33
alteregoI've never used the Eclipse plugin.16:33
crashanddiemojocafe: I suggest you learn to use Linux before trying to develop for it16:33

RST38hmojocafe: You start by deleting all those files, then deleting Eclipse16:34
alteregoRST38h: used sshfs on the host side?16:34
javispedrolol.16:34
mojocafeRST: lol16:34
alteregoWorks a little better for me than scp :)16:35
RST38hmojocafe: Once you do that, get the Maemopad example and examine it closely16:35
crashanddiemojocafe: just download a linux VM and start with that16:35
RST38hmojocafe: Alternatively, you can look at the older HelloWorld example from Maemo3 SDK16:35

RST38hcrashanddie: Whatever logging library you implement, if you are dropping 15MB of logs on startup, you will still lose16:41

alteregoThat's what I was thinking :)16:47
javispedronot really. tcp uses ip.16:47
lcukthats like being asked to use udp code but put in delivery confirmation and resending :p16:47
javispedroit makes no sense I know. It does when you factor in two hosts between two NATs each.16:47
lcukudp uses ip16:47
javispedrosee http://samy.pl/chownat/ (which is what I've been using)16:48
lcukfor router problems, you could just use carrier pigeons16:48
javispedrobut being in perl, in requires a chroot, and is sloooow.16:48

ccookeTCP over UDP is almost as fast as raw TCP - the only times it'll be slower are when you're sending packets that are larger than your MTU - and even then, it's only a few percent slower.16:52
alteregoX-Fade: does it?16:53
ccookeperl ought to be able to saturate a 100Mbit link at the least, probably gigabit.16:53

X-Fadealterego: in the demo youtube video you see that.16:54
ccookejavispedro: it *should* be fast enough for that.16:54

javispedroccooke: well. it felt *so slow* (ssh) than I didn't even try a NX/VNC session.16:54
ccookeThat's a shame :-.16:54
ccookehmm16:55
alteregoHow does it know that facebook friend A is contact 1?16:55
ccookeFor pure networking, perl is actually pretty optimised16:55
javispedroccooke: i fault perl, since I'm using the totally unoptimised debian binary16:55
javispedrocompiled for armv4 iirc.16:55
ccookejavispedro: thing is, perl has a pretty good built-in optimiser. When you're doing networking code, it should be *fast*.16:56
X-Fadealterego: Don't know if there is a facebook provider for telepathy.16:56
ccookejavispedro: it's not like user code where you shunt around strings and dynamic variables. It'll be basically working on ints and never casting...16:56
javispedroccooke: well, maybe It's just not good for interactive stuff but has good throughput. will try with NX when I get back.16:56

jrochalizardo, I'm gonna bother you more on the gtk.HILDON_SIZE_FINGER_BUTTON20:11
jrocha:)20:11
*** flavioribeiro has joined #maemo20:12
jrochalizardo, I gotta do the following: hildon.Button((gtk.HILDON_SIZE_FINGER_HEIGHT, hildon.BUTTON_ARRANGEMENT_VERTICAL)20:12
lizardojrocha: if I can help :)20:12
jrochaand while this works20:12
jrochait is ugly20:12
*** robink has quit IRC20:12
jrochanow, I understand that the size is implemented on the gtk part20:12
jrochabut I really think you should consider overriding this behavior so we have: hildon.SIZE_FINGER_HEIGHT20:13
jrochait just makes more sense to people used to work with PyGTK20:13
jrochaimho of course :)20:13
*** AD-N770 has quit IRC20:13
jrochalizardo, what are your thought on this, cara? :)20:14
lizardojrocha: while I agree it makes sense, let me try to show you the other way.... the first argument are somethings like "Gtk sizes for Hildon" the seconde is just arrangement for hildon buttons)20:14
lizardojrocha: so gtk-enums has sizes for other things that are not just Hildon...20:15
lizardojrocha: there must be some reason why they put it on gtk-enums on the first place20:15
lizardoand not on something like "hildon-enums.h"...20:15
jrochalizardo, hmm, I see20:16
lizardoso I *think* this is because you can use these sizes with gtk widgets too20:16
genewitchi certainly hope the n900  + maemo 5 handle such things as the RSS feed reader being responsive... and web pages.20:16
lizardojrocha: and not use hildon at all, but still have hildon sized widgets for your gtk app20:16
jrochalizardo, that seems understandable, yet weird20:17
jrochalizardo, because even if one wants to use a hildon size, they should get it from hildon thinking theoretically20:17
crashanddielmao20:17
crashanddieI just unleashed my bullshit generator20:18
crashanddieI was asked by my boss to justify why I need to spend 2 weeks in the US20:18
AStormjrocha: no, that would only add porting burden20:18
jrochalizardo, about hildon implementing it that way, maybe it was for convenience (more easy to assign sizes this way)20:18
*** guardian has joined #maemo20:18
lizardojrocha: yes, but in this case, the application would depend on any hildon libs (although the changes to gtk-enums.h are only on Maemo? not sure)20:18
*** _berto_ has joined #maemo20:19
jrochalizardo, so, the case would be that one maybe wants to use hildon sizes where they don't have hildon libs available? seems weird20:19
*** fnordianslip has joined #maemo20:19
lizardojrocha: anyway, the reasoning behind it is : there are various Gtk sizes (that can be used anywhere were you want those sizes and not use hardcoded constants), the hildon sizes just happen to be some of them20:20
jrochalizardo, yes20:20
*** mandara has joined #maemo20:20
jrochalizardo, and it is easy to use, I was just discussing whether it makes sense or not20:20
*** mandara has quit IRC20:22
lizardojrocha: I'm no gtk programmer :( but I think this can be asked on the Hildon mailing list , if they have some reasoning, the same would apply for the binding... but if you look at a C code, you would ask the same question: why GTK_HILDON_SIZE_FINGER_HEIGHT and not HILDON_GTK_SIZE_FINGER_HEIGHT ?)20:22
*** milos_ has joined #maemo20:22
genewitchwouldn't it be because GTK is the base library and hildon is just a library that happens to use GTK?20:25

lizardo_berto_: as part of the "gtk" module or of the "hildon"  module20:31
jrocha_berto_, I was telling them that imo it should be hildon's20:31
_berto_jrocha: it's part of maemo-gtk actually20:31
_berto_it's used in maemo-gtk20:31
lizardo_berto_: because as it was in gtk-enums.h it seemed "logical"  to have it in the gtk module20:31
_berto_and the api is in maemo-gtk20:31
_berto_yes, maemo-gtk has a few things specific to maemo20:32
_berto_this is one of them20:32
*** lcuk2 has joined #maemo20:32

_berto_lizardo: yes, that's the official repo20:32
lizardo_berto_: but is it part of the official diablo/fremantle releases, or a community project?20:33
_berto_lizardo: it's official20:33
_berto_lizardo: it's the branch of gtk that comes with maemo20:33
lizardo_berto_: hmm, I see, so the gtk we have on the devices come from this maemo-gtk branch?20:34
jrochayes, everytime you "import gtk"20:34
_berto_yes20:34
_berto_(sorry, telephone)20:34
wazdhehe. sometimes to know English is so cool :)20:35
lizardo_berto_, jrocha : in this case , maybe having the HILDON_SIZE_* symbols in gtk still makes sence, if you think that we are actually talking about maemo-gtk ... IMHO20:35
lizardogiven that it is part of the maemo-gtk API and not on the Hildon API20:35

jrochalizardo, my suggestions were only because when I code with Hildon, I don't really know where does the HILDON_SIZE... comes from but on Python it seemed to cripple the reading, when one sees: gtk.HILDON_SIZE...20:39
jrochalizardo, but now that I understand the whole story it's okay, and I won't bug you anymore :)20:39
lizardojrocha: yeah , it is a namespace issue , I would say :)20:39
lizardojrocha: because in C you don't have namespaces, so everything you #include is kind of global :)20:40
jrochalizardo, yes20:40
lizardojrocha: if that helps, you could use from gtk import HILDON_SIZE...20:40
jrochalizardo, last line of "import this": Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those! :D20:40
lizardojrocha: would even make some calls smaller :)20:40
jrochalizardo, I know how to manipulate the imports, but of course, that's not a good practice20:41

johnsqjavispedro: why? its usable for too much things, if cheap23:55
javispedroI'm serious with haging it on the wall, then leave it as a p2p machine, router, or always on server23:55
ShapeshifterI never had a proper phone, using a 10 buck LG that can do SMS >.> I think I want one. I'm wondering what kind of phone. Not an iphone, and no windows. Looked at the HTC hero, looks better now with the updated rom. But should I wait for an N900?23:56
