Community Updates
As we strive to make our development progress as open as possible, we do not provide delivery dates. Instead, we continuously report on the project status here and on our mailing list.
The status is usually updated at least twice a month, usually by Michael Shiloh (User:MichaelShiloh). Updates are also mailed to the community mailing list (see below for previous updates), and major updates are also sent to the announce list.
You are invited to add questions or topics you think should be included in the Community Updates.
GTA02v3 is quite solid, but a flaw in power distribution required another revision. A very small number of GTA02v4 have been manufactured. Evaluation by internal OpenMoko engineers should start any day now (relative to October 31, 2007).
We have received permission to distribute this driver in binary-only form, however the binary format is different from what we now use. There are various work-arounds (chroot, wrapper) but they raise legal questions. We are in the process of sorting out these legal issues.
I think it's a combination hardware and software issue.
I believe the problem has been solved and we have permission to update the firmware, but there is a question as to how to legally update in the field.
It would be illegal for FIC to sell the device in the US with it activated. BT and PCS is the only approved band currently.
