08:00.19QantouriscIs gta04 ready for daily use ?
08:07.02*** join/#openmoko aloniv (~alonivtsa@85.64.31.183.dynamic.barak-online.net)
08:16.22DocScrutinizer51gta04 probably is. The question though is which distro to use on it
08:22.31QantouriscWell at this point if I can call i'm rather happy :)
08:23.07QantouriscDocScrutinizer51: you using gta04 ?
08:23.31Qantouriscandroid: holefest + this is no distro, it's distro masacrated by every phone vendor
08:23.57Qantourisciphone: there policy and way of working and closeness bugs the hell out of me
08:24.06Qantouriscopenmako is the only alternative i can find
08:29.00vilpanQantourisc: mer is an interesting project as well
08:29.20Qantouriscor mer, or lxde
08:29.22Qantouriscany of them :)
08:29.54QantouriscPoint is: peaple are paying MORE then a cheap PC, but are ALLOWED to do less with it ... ?!?
08:31.34vilpanQantourisc: I have the same "wtf?!" feeling, though, it's obvious most people just don't care enough.
08:32.05QantouriscBut before I spend 700€ on something that might be worthless... I need to know if it's usable :/
08:32.08vilpanjust like we could wonder why there are so many people willing to pay a lot for a proprietary desktop OS that's broken in so many ways.
08:32.54QantouriscGames, and other broken properietary software, and habbit
08:33.17vilpanthe only explanation I know is that most people aren't willing to make their own decisions on the way their systems will run. They want it to work and have the decisions made for them, even if that means losing a lot of flexibility.
08:33.23alonivQantourisc: you can always get gta02 - much cheaper...
08:33.38Qantouriscand slower ?
08:34.36alonivyeah but it's more than usable...
08:34.58Qantouriscgta04 not ?
08:35.05Qantouriscof you mean the speed :)
08:35.12alonivqtmoko and om2009 are pretty fast for regular phone use...
08:35.49Qantourisccan you still buy gta02 ?
08:36.07alonivyes...you can buy new or second hand...
08:36.36alonivif you want one with 1024 fix (deep sleep) it will cost more...
08:37.46QantouriscWhere is the gta02 shop ? :p
08:39.16alonivhttp://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Distributors
08:39.53alonivhttp://openmobil.eu/ is cheapest but it isn't buzz fixed...
08:40.30Qantourisc230 ... well that can make a person doubt :p
08:41.05aloniv139 euros...
08:41.11alonivwhat is 230?
08:41.23Qantourisc230€
08:42.00Qantouriscor 139 yes :)

08:43.12alonivit's a lot less than gta04...
08:43.23Qantouriscyea
08:43.32Qantouriscnot quite sure why a phone costs 700€ :)
08:43.40Qantouriscwhat's so dam expensive ? :)
08:46.10aloniv749 euros compared to 139 euros...
08:47.13Qantourisci'm not following
08:47.54alonivgta04 complete (including case) costs 749 euros, gta02 (worst version but includes case) costs 139 euros
08:53.37alonivback in a sec

09:33.19radekpQantourisc: if you care about supporting future then GTA04 is the choice
09:34.48radekpQantourisc: it's so expencive because only few people already bought it - the more units are sold the better price it will be
09:38.07QantouriscIf mail, and phone works, i'm kind of happy
09:38.23Qantouriscif webcaldav, vcarddav works, i'm happier :)
09:38.52QantouriscIf it comes with packages from a large distro, even more :)
09:39.45QantouriscPS, howlong does it last in idle ?

10:21.07DocScrutinizer51vilpan: you're not paying for the OS with GTA04
