    Pyra christmas update :)

    Is it just me seeing a (possibly double) logical mismatch here?

    Possible Pyra competitor: Graalphone

    I think the epic fail is, that the Keyboard/Screen part needs an own OS. WTF: you have an octocore processor and need anotherone to drive an 7"display and a keyboard????? My daily PC is an 15 Year old Thinkpad, which can do more in a way. as to android/Win10??? (I have an easier way to get me...

    the other Mainboard

    Because: - you have to take care of an extra battery charge (honestly allways a PITA to me) - you do not upcycle/ reuse something otherwise useless fine keyboard - your are not hacking something for coolness - you have to carry an extra stand, which is already integrated in the other keyboard...

    the other Mainboard

    Yes, I disassembled it, cut all connections to the PCB and used a continuity tester to "decrypt2 the key matrix. I even started to design a new PCB with another guy (was a multi purpose idea to also have a board to get the keyboards from the old thinkpad to reuse incl. the trackpoint). Needs to...

    Pyra as full mobile phone replacement?

    My experiences with WhatsApp so far (my sons to be exactly) on a non android device: they all gonna fail after a while. First we tired pigeon on a debian maschine: after a while whatsApp blocked the phone number for that (forever, so that number is unusable forever) happend on a cyanogenmod...

    the other Mainboard

    reading the thoughts about a bare mainboard and the Pyra-Phone ideas, I couldn't help to think about my old idea of having a Pyra in side the old Palm3 cases and the foldable keyboard for that: http://www.dansdata.com/portkey.htm Here are my rough thoughts to that: - case is easy enough to...

    Pyra christmas update :)

    How am I better off with that? I have to limit myself to microSD (because that's what the raspi has) and have to fiddle around with adaptors to get the swap done, I have to update another system, the raspi is horrible when attaching a lot of cables (sticking out in literally in all directions)...

    Pyra christmas update :)

    you already id ;-) -power -audio -the integrated eSATA adaptor (at least I wouldn't want to root that through another USB hub) Why would I do that, if I could plug them all in a dock?

    Pyra christmas update :)

    I intend to have the Pyra as my primary, perhaps only PC, which I carry with me. So I will end up most likely to have it attached/detached once a day. So dock is essential.

    Pyra christmas update :)

    Shouldn't be to complicated to get all people here who have access to a fablab/hackerspace with 3D pinters to make them fo the members, who haven't. I could do some in our space. That reminds me of something: are you wiling to try to make that one fitting into the old Palm3 cases? I have some...

    Prototype mainboards coming soon

    Generally bunnie is willing to help. He is at 33c3, but says that he would not be much of a help, without having deeper knowledge about the actual hardware design. So question is: is there some sense to meet up with him at 33c3 (and if who of the involved guys here is the most fitting person to...

    Prototype mainboards coming soon

    I'll let you know if/when I get contact with him. Have we in theory a way to get hardware to Hamburg? (I may have someone who might help out with equipment). anyone here, who has planned to be at 33c3? (I skipped this year, so have no ticket).

    I'l try to find out if he is in Hamburg and has time to have a look.

    Prototype mainboards coming soon

    Just a wild thought to add new ideas: It migth be possible, that bunnie is at 33c3 in Hamburg after christmas. As he has lots of expierence in general developing (chumpy, novena etc) and is a nice guy, he might be interested to add ideas and be intrested in a meetup. I could contact him to find...
