I got an offer. But as noted earlier, we're still recovering from my earlier job loss. Can't even fit a discounted device into the budget. I'm hoping some ebay auctions I'm about to start can fix that.

Well, DHL dropped it off this morning. No hardware issues although the screen is noticeably more yellow than my prototype. Starting a collection of AC-10Es here. Need to go buy another adaptor. . . .

Just returned from Arizona......................just kidding, and fired up skype, it worked on 1st trial. I talked to a friend and used it like a cellphone, and it worked. However, the mic icon is crossed out with a red line. Do I have mic problems?

The phone vibrates

no dead pixel

What else should i check? :confused:

How do you get the gps lock?

Here are some pics from the N900.... enjoy

TIA,

bun

I noticed too, so I have it installed - but I haven't managed to get this working yet.

In the meantime I ran into a battery issue - mentioned elsewhere. The pulseaudio EQ is running even though there's nothing requring it (nothing which plays anything.) Investigations are ongoing.

Err, are you referring to the mute button ?

Probably - the current implementation of that button seems a little counter-intuitive. Wouldn't it be better if the button represented the current state of the mic, ie. no-cross out when the mic is active but crossed out when the mic is muted, and not the other way around which is how it is now?

This would be consistent with the volume mute icon (the button for which doesn't currently work) - when the volume is at zero the speaker is crossed out (ie. it's currently inactive) but when the volume is > zero the speaker has no cross out. The phone app runs counter to this approach.
