Annonse

Så en video på youtube av en telefon som hadde accellometer. Når du rista på den så skvulpa det vann i den. Lyden på vannet forandret seg når batterinivået endret seg. Slik at når batteriet var nestent tomt så hørtes det ut som vannet i en "beholder" nesten var tomt. Vet ikke om dette kan ordnes på neo1973 men det så ganske morsomt ut. Finner ikke den videoen akkurat nå,

GTA02v6

Mass production candicate version 3/Mass production version

 

 

A6 will be fine tune version of A5, only minor schematic change for better product quality and version control. Capacitor and resistor change A6 also on mass production A5

 

 

First 100 pcs might start from end of 2008 March

Add capacitor space for Vbat, reduce the SMT effort

Add GSM IR resistor for better GSM deep sleep

Reserve 3 GPIO for hardware version control

 

Virker som dette er 100 "test" devices ut i fra det jeg ser her:

 

Hello,

 

A number of times you have asked about pre-orders. Here is the official

word from our VP of Marketing:

 

Over the next couple of months you will see the following 3 announcements:

 

1. When the production hardware is solid and signed off, we will

announce pricing and availability. That is, we will announce the

expected price and the expected date on which the web store will open.

 

2. When the first production run is complete, we will announce that.

 

3. When the phones reach the distribution centers in Europe and USA, we

will open the web store and begin taking orders.

 

 

We are actively looking at pre-orders, but as discussed in the past

there are a number of very difficult complications in taking pre-orders.

We think the best solution is to build 10 times as many phones as we did

the last time, so that pre-orders will not be necessary.

 

As many of you know, ramping up a factory for production is not

instantaneous. We plan to do a number of pre-production runs to iron out

manufacturing issues and to assure high yield. These pre-production runs

will occur before the official production run, so that when we make

announcements 2 and 3 above we will be highly confident in our ability

to manufacture and deliver a very large number of handsets.

 

Regards,

Michael

 

Edit: Vi får se da om det blir flere hardware revisions, men jeg tror ikke det ettersom det vil ta en god del lengre tid. Virker som OM er ganske utolmodig og vil ha den ut før den blir for "gammel". Men den må også fungere tilstrekkelig. Jeg venter!

Update fra produksjonsfolka.

 

The Freerunner design is currently staged to go through Production

Validation Test (PVT). The hardware design A5 is, we believe, solid. We

are updating this design to A6 to maximize production yields.

 

The purpose of PVT is to make sure the yield is high enough, and to make

sure the manufacturing and testing process is smooth and efficient.

 

De lager test-telefoner igjen!!

I thought I would combine a couple posts today. First an update on PVT, or

production verification test. Phones are being sent to me from the first PVT

run. Michael Shiloh will be back in Silicon valley next Tuesday, so he and I

will test the samples and get them out to key partners. I want to check a

couple things like using the Nokia batteries as spares and generic USB

chargers before I send these samples out.

 

Now, for the update on Products, and Pricing,

 

1. Products.

 

Orginally the FreeRunner ( GTA02) was planned to come out in two packages.

Basic and advanced, just like the Neo 1973. We killed that idea. It was a

quick humane death. The problem was the GTA02 advanced unit would have been

$650 USD. After seeing the response to Neo 1973, a huge response, we decided

the best path was to lower the price, reward our early developers, and

attract more developers.

 

2. Pricing

We scrubbed the BOM ( bill of materials). We eliminated the Luxurious bits.

Optimized the box like it was code. The first thing we got rid of

was the lunchbox. It was cool, but it was expensive and heavy. Eliminating

that was a sizeable cost savings. ( think shipping weight).

 

Next we pulled out the debug board and made it a separate product. We

priced it at $99 US. about 1 tenth what people would pay for similar

capability.

 

My goal was to get to a place where we could sell the FreeRunner at $399.

USD.

 

We did that.

 

The FreeRunner will ship from Openmoko.com at $399. For early customers

I'm looking at throwing in a few free things. More details later.

 

The debug board will be available as a separate product for $99 USD.

 

Many people wrote me mails asking if they could get a discount by buying

more than one phone. Sometimes they were universities, sometimes a small

business, sometimes a small group or club.

 

For these people we created a 10Pack. instead of 399 per phone, we will

charge 369 per phone.

 

 

Over the next few days I will explain the next steps we go through and how

the product will get distributed

POSETIVT!!! LINK

 

Han direktøren i firmaet Sean Moss-Pultz skrev også nylig en blogentry på hjemmesiden sin som var rimelig kryptisk. Men det virker som han har fått drømmen sin i oppfyllelse. Masseproduksjon av "åpne" mobiler.

 

Jeg kjøper med en gang den kommer.
