00:25.41 | f00f- | i have a T43p and T60p |
00:25.58 | f00f- | T60 has lots of problems |
00:26.03 | f00f- | but T61 seems to have improved lots |
00:28.31 | Dougie187 | thats cool |
00:28.36 | Dougie187 | i dont really mind the widescreen. |
00:28.42 | Dougie187 | its 14.1 though, that im gonna get. |

00:55.48 | Dougie187 | well f00f- |
00:56.00 | Dougie187 | if you are interested in getting a laptop they have an awesome deal until the 14th |
00:56.13 | Dougie187 | there is a 10% off coupon for X series, and 12% cash back through fatwallet. |
00:56.16 | Dougie187 | i think at least. |
00:56.20 | Dougie187 | lemme check on the coupon part |
00:56.35 | Dougie187 | yup. |
00:56.36 | Dougie187 | http://www.fatwallet.com/cash-back-coupons/Lenovo |
00:57.09 | Dougie187 | the cash back will take a coupon months though, but lenovo has no payments for 6 months on $750 or more. |
00:57.20 | Dougie187 | s/coupon/couple/g |
01:02.22 | f00f- | ok, yeah i get employee discount |
01:02.25 | f00f- | probably around the same |
01:02.28 | Dougie187 | this is better then employee |
01:02.31 | Dougie187 | employee is 15% |
01:02.34 | Dougie187 | that was my other option. |
01:02.49 | Dougie187 | thats why im ordering it now. |
01:02.51 | f00f- | interesting |
01:03.13 | Dougie187 | at least its 15% on T series. |
01:03.16 | Dougie187 | but its 8% on R series. |
01:03.24 | f00f- | i've seen 25% off at times |
01:03.28 | Dougie187 | so it might be a bit more on X Series, but i would assume its the same. |
01:05.04 | Dougie187 | just ordered actually. |
01:05.10 | f00f- | which config |
01:05.52 | Dougie187 | just the base proc, because i couldnt bring my self to spend $120 on the better cache. |
01:05.53 | zhobbs | infobot: what is android? |
01:05.55 | infobot | zhobbs: what are you talking about? |
01:06.10 | zhobbs | infobot: where can I find android |
01:06.10 | infobot | methinks android is an Open Handset Alliance Project by Google or an alleged Open Source phone software stack that's really not open. http://code.google.com/android/, or if it's sometime actually freed, someone might port it on the neo, but the provided binaries are incompatible |
01:06.35 | zhobbs | ha, wonder who put that in |
01:06.49 | Dougie187 | base ram. 14.1 lcd, nvidia graphics, bash hdd, cheapest os, base battery, wireless n, PC slot + media card |
01:06.59 | f00f- | how much did it come out to |
01:07.57 | Dougie187 | 959 after tax, but im gonna get like 110 back in cash back |
01:07.59 | Dougie187 | so about 850 |
01:08.21 | f00f- | Bluetooth? |
01:08.43 | Dougie187 | no bluetooth, i dont use it much and i have a usb adapter. |
01:08.49 | f00f- | and no dvd recordable? |
01:09.01 | Dougie187 | oh hell yeah dvd recordable. |
01:09.04 | f00f- | regular battery |
01:09.06 | f00f- | ? |
01:09.07 | f00f- | or 9 cell |
01:09.09 | Dougie187 | reg |
01:09.19 | Dougie187 | im plugged in most of the time. |
01:09.22 | Dougie187 | so i dont need a 9cell right now |
01:09.34 | f00f- | no warrant or antyhing special |
01:09.40 | Dougie187 | nope |
01:10.09 | f00f- | $842.67 |
01:10.26 | f00f- | 7662CTO |
01:10.35 | f00f- | 14.1 WXGA TFT |
01:10.38 | Dougie187 | whats that? |
01:10.46 | f00f- | T61 |
01:10.48 | f00f- | with nvidia |
01:10.54 | f00f- | your confi |
01:10.55 | f00f- | g |
01:11.01 | Dougie187 | yeah |
01:11.04 | Dougie187 | but thats before tax |
01:11.10 | Dougie187 | then you have to add 60 bucks for tax |
01:11.12 | Dougie187 | and its about 900 |
01:11.21 | Dougie187 | so mines ~$50 cheaper. |
01:12.53 | f00f- | ah yeah it came out to 922.41 with tax and recycling fee |
01:13.13 | Dougie187 | yeah |
01:13.14 | Dougie187 | thats what does it. |
01:13.33 | Dougie187 | i was calculating it total, because you have to pay taxes on the cashback first. |
01:13.40 | Dougie187 | then you get the cashback back, but not the taxes. |
01:14.38 | f00f- | right |
01:15.02 | Dougie187 | yeah |
01:15.11 | f00f- | although 6 months to wait for the money? |
01:15.23 | Dougie187 | i dont remember how long it is, but its at least 2 months. |
01:15.43 | Dougie187 | its about 3 months. |
01:15.45 | f00f- | if it was 6, then i'd just pay the extra $50 |
01:15.53 | f00f- | not worth the hassle imho |
01:15.59 | Dougie187 | i made an order on 4/19/08 and i get the cash back on 7/18/08 |
01:16.41 | Dougie187 | and it works good with the no payments for 6 months too. |
01:16.49 | Dougie187 | so you should get your cashback before you have to pay it off. |
01:25.41 | Dougie187 | but yeah. |
01:25.51 | Dougie187 | im all about saving money. |

02:30.04 | Dougie187 | well.. no sales tax. |
02:32.56 | Dougie187 | but its got a higher income tax doesnt it? |
02:36.07 | yakischloba | Yes there is a state income tax. |
02:36.19 | yakischloba | I've never bothered to see how it balances out |
02:36.33 | Dougie187 | its 18% if i remember correctly. |
02:36.52 | yakischloba | Ow. Well sales tax in Washington is only 8.something% |
02:38.03 | Dougie187 | yeah |
02:38.08 | Dougie187 | and sales is like 6? |

03:18.11 | yakischloba | trying to figure out the whole content provider with something other than sqlite thing |

03:22.24 | yakischloba | I'm thinking hard to see if I can avoid using a content provider |
03:22.35 | muthu | do a orm |
03:22.49 | yakischloba | I'm completely new to java and android :( |
03:22.59 | muthu | why you are avoiding sqlite? |
03:23.25 | yakischloba | because I think its too much messy work to write all your own queries |
03:23.33 | yakischloba | its 2008, shit should be easier than that. |
03:24.04 | yakischloba | ORM is the way of the future |
03:25.45 | yakischloba | looks like that might be beyond my capability at this time though |
03:28.39 | muthu | right |
03:28.47 | yakischloba | call me crazy ;) |
03:28.49 | muthu | what other database are you thinking? |
03:29.15 | muthu | the data access is a mess |
03:29.20 | muthu | can't argue there |
03:29.33 | yakischloba | I meant to say that I'm avoiding using SQLite in the way everyone else seems to be doing |
03:29.54 | muthu | there's no other way to do it |
03:30.05 | yakischloba | Why not? Aren't there ORM's for java? |
03:30.19 | muthu | yeah |
03:30.33 | yakischloba | I saw db4o which uses its own database but i havent seen many other things |
03:30.53 | yakischloba | well whats wrong with them? is everyones application so light on data access that they dont bother or what? |
03:31.43 | muthu | yes, |
03:31.46 | muthu | don't bother for now |
03:32.13 | muthu | there's too many other things to focus on for now ;) |

18:09.30 | anno^da | Somone experiences with NAS devices ? |
18:11.30 | soulreaper | i am on a constant search for a good one |
18:17.36 | anno^da | hmm yeah :) |
18:17.58 | anno^da | Mine needs to run a Slimserver, consuming less power |
18:18.03 | anno^da | thats it :) |
18:18.33 | anno^da | the problem is that the slimserver will serve a music library with round about 8000 flac files |
18:26.09 | soulreaper | that is something i am constantly searching for... a device which consums very little power |
18:26.27 | *** join/#android Dralspire (n=dralspir@56-196.126-70.tampabay.res.rr.com) |
18:26.37 | anno^da | yeah |
18:26.49 | soulreaper | btw... i am in love with this case: http://www.chenbro.com/corporatesite/products_detail.php?serno=100 |
18:26.54 | anno^da | the thing is I've found devices which need round about 5-8 W |
18:27.16 | soulreaper | 5-8W? the entire system? |
18:27.19 | anno^da | but they are too slow to fit my needs |
18:27.21 | anno^da | yeah |
18:27.43 | anno^da | wait a minute I'll post you the link |
18:28.15 | soulreaper | alrighty |
18:30.15 | soulreaper | hard to find? i guessed so ;) |
18:31.04 | anno^da | haha it is hard to refind it in the forum again :) |
18:31.18 | anno^da | just had the thread open 2 hours ago |
18:32.02 | *** join/#android cybereagle (n=cybereag@unaffiliated/cybereagle) |
18:34.01 | anno^da | got it :) |
18:34.02 | anno^da | http://www.fit-pc.com/new/specifications.html |
18:34.13 | soulreaper | today i read an article about the new AMD Athlon 64 2000+. it beats the atom system in power usage |
18:35.06 | anno^da | yeah that could be |
18:36.23 | soulreaper | the system sounds okay |
18:36.30 | soulreaper | propably quite affordable |
18:36.53 | soulreaper | but i am missing some features like gigabit lan and customizable ram |
18:37.49 | soulreaper | also the S in NAS is pretty limited ;) |
18:38.31 | anno^da | yeah thats right |
18:38.59 | anno^da | you could plugin an external storage but that consumes power |
18:39.08 | anno^da | via USB2.0 |
18:39.11 | soulreaper | via usb you mean? |
18:39.13 | soulreaper | yeah |
18:39.18 | anno^da | eSata would be better |
18:39.36 | soulreaper | but that is not what i am looking for... a raid 5 or 6 is something i am searching for |
18:39.37 | soulreaper | true |
18:39.42 | anno^da | Yeah ok |
18:39.45 | anno^da | http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/embedded/artigo/ |
18:39.53 | anno^da | thats another possibility in this class |
18:40.50 | soulreaper | true. but not what i am looking for |
18:40.56 | soulreaper | you are in search of some kind of music box? |
18:41.45 | anno^da | I will use a Squeezebox |
18:41.53 | anno^da | as a receiver |
18:42.11 | anno^da | and the SqueezeCenter (Slimserver) for serving the music |
18:42.26 | soulreaper | sounds good i think |
18:42.35 | anno^da | http://slimdevices.com/ |
18:42.41 | soulreaper | what i want is storage... a lot of storage |
18:42.50 | anno^da | Yeah I recognized that :D |
18:42.53 | soulreaper | and a running linux system for downloads etc |
18:42.55 | soulreaper | :) |
18:43.02 | anno^da | haha :) yeah |
18:43.15 | soulreaper | but the box should also support streaming if necesarry |
18:43.27 | soulreaper | looks interesting |
18:43.49 | anno^da | and the server is under the GPL |
18:43.57 | anno^da | which makes it even more interesting ;) |
18:44.07 | soulreaper | yeah... i vagualy remember |
18:44.25 | anno^da | Yeah it was formally known as Slimdevices |
18:44.37 | anno^da | Logitech bought the whole company |
18:45.15 | anno^da | I really like the multiroom feature. You can control the musik in every room with one remote. |
18:45.28 | soulreaper | that is pretty cool |
18:45.44 | soulreaper | i would also like a system which plays the same music in every room |
18:45.48 | soulreaper | in sync |
18:46.20 | anno^da | And if michaelnovakjr would be here I would propose him to write an remote for android for the slimserver |
18:46.32 | anno^da | Thats possbile as well. |
18:46.32 | soulreaper | :) |
18:46.42 | anno^da | You can sync the music |
18:46.44 | soulreaper | i heard the n800 is already running android? |
18:47.01 | anno^da | So every room plays the same music in sync :) |
18:47.11 | soulreaper | that is good |
18:47.30 | anno^da | Yeah it is already running and even the wifi is working. But it is some m3 based setup. |
18:47.43 | soulreaper | m3? |
18:47.49 | anno^da | the old SDK |
18:47.51 | anno^da | version |
18:48.08 | soulreaper | ah ok |
18:49.15 | gambler | there is a guy who has written a JSR-82 bluetooth remote that works with alot of phones |
18:49.21 | gambler | its suprisingly easy to setup |
18:49.56 | soulreaper | that are also the logitech remotes which can controll everything |
18:50.10 | anno^da | Yeah but they are so expensive. |
18:50.19 | soulreaper | sad and true :( |
18:50.23 | anno^da | 300 $ for one remote |
18:50.37 | anno^da | you could buy an iPod touch for that |
18:51.00 | anno^da | and use that http://penguinlovesmusic.de/?page_id=7 |
18:51.01 | anno^da | :) |
18:51.04 | soulreaper | or anything else which costs 300$ ;) |
18:51.13 | anno^da | it is a remote written for OSX controlling the slimserver |
18:51.54 | anno^da | and thats what I want for Android as well :-) |
18:51.58 | soulreaper | but it doesn't support every decice on earth |
18:52.18 | anno^da | Yeah thats true :-) |
18:52.41 | anno^da | But I'd like to fit my needs and not every devices need :-D |
18:52.54 | soulreaper | i prefere world domination ;) |
18:54.48 | soulreaper | speaking of world domination... soon there is nothing left to conquer since the iphone reigns in terror |
18:54.59 | soulreaper | so hard times for the android |
18:55.10 | anno^da | hmm I wouldnt say that :) |
18:55.26 | anno^da | it feels like that at the moment |
18:55.34 | anno^da | because of the marketing wave |
18:55.51 | anno^da | every tv station, blog, news site is writting about it atm |
18:55.51 | soulreaper | even i feel tempted by the dark side |
18:56.04 | anno^da | Oh I feel as well but thats no problem :) |
18:56.25 | anno^da | it looks clean polished and I like the fancy UI widgets |
18:56.35 | anno^da | so no problem about that. |
18:56.55 | anno^da | Just the Android UI guys have to work hard :-) |
18:57.02 | soulreaper | i also like the eas of use and perceived speed |
18:57.48 | soulreaper | but there are a lot of things i don |
18:57.57 | soulreaper | 't like so there is still room for the android :) |
18:58.08 | anno^da | definetly |
18:58.16 | anno^da | I hate the closed system |
18:58.42 | soulreaper | closed and very limited. especially since you can't run apps in backgroud or multiple apps |
18:58.44 | anno^da | even if I use the Macbook Pro here. But there are a lot of things that I really hate |
18:59.10 | anno^da | Yeah this limitations save battery power on the other hand |
18:59.19 | soulreaper | yeah true |
18:59.37 | anno^da | Having services running all the time can be very battery consuming |
18:59.41 | soulreaper | and also protects the phone companies because people can't properly run im voip apps |
19:02.26 | soulreaper | but... i do like the idea of the app store. such a repository is a great resource |
19:06.45 | anno^da | yeah but from my point of view it has to be more open |
19:06.59 | zhobbs | and should be optional |
19:07.05 | anno^da | I dont like the idea of subscribing to be able to write apps and so on |
19:07.08 | zhobbs | I should be able to install an app from any source if I want to |
19:07.14 | anno^da | yeah that as well |
19:08.08 | soulreaper | correct |
19:08.34 | soulreaper | it is the central idea which is good. there is no other place so you are not going to miss any cool app ;) |
19:11.25 | soulreaper | there should be something similar for android where you can specify sources of applications like the sources list in debian |
19:11.55 | anno^da | Yeah thats what the Openmoko guys have |
19:12.08 | anno^da | they've setup repositories with apps |
19:12.22 | anno^da | and you just install them by something like apt-get install ... |
19:12.29 | soulreaper | that is cool |
19:12.37 | zhobbs | there already are a couple of package management apps for android |
19:12.39 | soulreaper | although i don't belive in openmoko |
19:12.51 | anno^da | Yeah Tracktroid for example |
19:12.58 | zhobbs | yep |
19:13.18 | anno^da | I dont believe it as well because they arent backed up by some big carriere |
19:13.42 | soulreaper | that is their problem |
19:13.49 | zhobbs | what license is the openmoko OS ? |
19:13.53 | anno^da | GPL |
19:13.57 | anno^da | totally GPL |
19:14.00 | zhobbs | cool |
19:14.06 | anno^da | every driver |
19:14.19 | anno^da | even the CAD files of the case are under ther LGPL |
19:14.36 | soulreaper | but how many devices use it? one |
19:14.54 | anno^da | and a system that is not really stable |
19:15.21 | anno^da | and a system with 3-4 framework iniatives |
19:15.24 | soulreaper | maybe the new open symbian is a good alternative |
