Re: Details about the GPS chip in N810
The snag is that A-GPS needs cell data from a mobile phone. Has anybody figured out whether the needed information is accessible through a public standard interface? If not, that would restrict it to...

Re: winmapper - updated
As far as my experience goes, sqlite seems to use hardware-native formats, so that a x86-generated sqlite db would not work on an ARM target. That is, such an utility could be easily built to run on...

Re: true dial up possible????
That is data dial-up, where the phone connects via a modem residing at a data center of the network operator - which is generally billed separately (or even blocked) in flat-rate plans.

Re: true dial up possible????
Nope. Your unlimited voice call plan will almost certainly not contain unlimited data calls, and due to the data reduction on voice channels, passing data over a voice connection is only possible...
