| 04:27.44 | flyback | TimRiker, |
| 04:27.51 | flyback | I got this disney dream sketcher apart |
| 04:27.57 | flyback | it was like a cheap pixter clone |
| 04:28.01 | flyback | $40 down to $7 |
| 04:28.07 | flyback | it could very well be a 32 bit cpu inside |
| 04:28.09 | flyback | from the size |
| 04:30.25 | MonMotha | flyback: so why not look up the chip? |
| 04:30.29 | MonMotha | google is wonderful |
| 04:32.17 | flyback | it's glob you stupid canuck |
| 04:32.21 | flyback | don't you think I would have tried that |
| 04:32.41 | MonMotha | wow, now I remember why I usually have you on ignore... |
| 04:32.45 | MonMotha | speaking of, why don't I? |
| 04:32.49 | flyback | dude |
| 04:32.52 | flyback | I was kidding :/ |
| 04:32.59 | flyback | cause I flipped my ip |
| 04:33.00 | flyback | :P |
| 04:33.19 | flyback | our old friend giantplus is inside |
| 04:33.29 | flyback | and there is a seprrate 4 wire ribbon I suspect is the touch interface |
| 04:36.06 | TimRiker | $7 ? really? |
| 04:36.21 | TimRiker | embedded toys are getting so cheap these days. :) |
| 04:36.40 | MonMotha | TimRiker: $7 with a COB likely isn't all that hackable, unfortunately |
| 04:37.47 | flyback | mon |
| 04:37.51 | flyback | it has a cart socket and a usb port |
| 04:38.00 | flyback | chances are one of you guys could figure it out |
| 04:38.13 | flyback | hell if you just figure out the lcd it's worth the $7 |
| 04:40.00 | TimRiker | wish I could get this phone project moving faster. the financials are taking forever. |
| 04:40.12 | MonMotha | phone project? |
| 04:42.46 | flyback | MonMotha, |
| 04:42.47 | flyback | TimRiker, |
| 04:42.48 | flyback | http://images.google.com/images?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&q=dream%20sketcher&btnG=Search&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&um=1&sa=N&tab=wi |
| 04:43.59 | TimRiker | flyback: qvga? |
| 04:44.04 | flyback | no clue :P |
| 04:44.22 | flyback | but consdiering it can attach to a pc to print thru it |
| 04:44.29 | flyback | I figure there has to be some decent cpu meat |
| 04:44.36 | flyback | and even a passive lcd wouldn't be bad for some projects |
| 04:45.24 | TimRiker | MonMotha: company I'm trying to get started. Plans to make a linux based smart phone. I've done a ton of research and found folks that will build it, but the $$ to fund it has been repeatedly delayed. it's been 2 weeks away for about a year now. |
| 04:45.54 | MonMotha | TimRiker: always seems to be the problem |
| 04:48.25 | TimRiker | need something like that hacked to connect to a hacked xbox as a input/output :) |
| 04:48.45 | TimRiker | run xbmc and use the usb device as an interface. |
| 04:50.07 | TimRiker | equally cool on a mythtv box etc. |
| 04:51.12 | MonMotha | TimRiker: you still have a DCT5000 laying around? |
| 04:51.31 | MonMotha | because if that doesn't scream mythtv frontend, I don't know what does |
| 04:52.39 | TimRiker | MonMotha: yes I do. 2 of them. |
| 04:53.34 | MonMotha | TimRiker: I have a mod board designed to replace the mask rom (which is a totally non-standard part - you'll never find a flash version in DIP) with flash, and I've gotten enough info out of the stock boot ROM to boot Linux |
| 04:53.37 | MonMotha | I just need to actually do it |
| 04:54.04 | TimRiker | nice! |
| 04:54.06 | MonMotha | the board is basically just the dev kit for the northbridge with the cable box stuff added on and some memory spaces moved, near as I can tell |
| 04:54.35 | MonMotha | TimRiker: I'm planning on making a panel of the mod boards, but even still it won't be overly cheap in such small quantity, probably $30 or so assembled |
| 04:54.49 | MonMotha | IIRC CosmicPenguin was also interested |
| 04:55.11 | TimRiker | I'll likely just drop a tuner card or 2 in my server and use the xbox as a front end. |
| 04:55.19 | MonMotha | that's what a lot of people do |
| 04:55.34 | MonMotha | personally, I just watch TV on my computer. It has an HD capable monitor, after all |
| 04:56.22 | MonMotha | the myth server has 3 tuners: 1 PVR-150, 1 WinTV Go (ancient), and a PCHDTV 3000 |
| 04:56.37 | TimRiker | yeah, the only HD display in the house is the dell 24" on the computer. they are down to $550 or so as refurbs. highly recommended. |
| 04:56.55 | MonMotha | have they fixed the issue with not being able to turn the contrast down far enough? |
| 04:56.59 | TimRiker | MonMotha: nice. |
| 04:57.24 | MonMotha | last Dell LCD I had the pleasure of using was incapable of being set correctly. Even at min contrast, it was still over driving things, and at min brightness black was gray |
| 04:57.32 | TimRiker | MonMotha: it fine for me. mine is a 2405 I think that was an issue on the early 2407 models? |
| 04:57.41 | MonMotha | that could be. This was a couple years ago |
| 04:58.09 | MonMotha | I'm guessing marketing asked for them "bright", so they got cranked in service mode to the point where you couldn't adjust them properly in user mode |
| 04:58.09 | TimRiker | the 24" is gorgeous, just gorgeous. |

| 04:59.01 | MonMotha | hum, I wonder if I could solder down a QFN... |
| 04:59.48 | MonMotha | TimRiker: anyway, I'll let you know when I get the mod boards ready |
| 05:00.07 | MonMotha | You'll still have to JTAG a program onto them, most likely, but it'll otherwise jsut be 29 series flash |
| 05:05.38 | TimRiker | k. Holler if you find someone interested in my 2 units. I probably will never get to them. |
| 05:06.58 | TimRiker | heh: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5865144136 3 of them on ebay right now. :) |
| 05:09.31 | TimRiker | and one for parts: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140101289902 |
| 05:10.32 | MonMotha | hah, it's just missing the boot rom |
| 05:10.47 | MonMotha | that's tempting |
| 05:11.14 | MonMotha | because it'll basically do nothign without that boot ROM |
| 05:12.12 | MonMotha | you know, it just occured to me that I'm not entirely sure how to turn the damned thing on |
| 05:14.18 | TimRiker | I've turned mine on. I don't recall how. perhaps with the remote. |
| 05:15.01 | TimRiker | the parts one is 1.99 the others are $20 a piece. you should pick em all up. :) probably save on shipping the three. |
| 05:15.14 | TimRiker | start your own garage project. baby steps. |
| 05:15.28 | MonMotha | TimRiker: the issue is that the software is responsible for turning on the main power, as far as I'm aware |
| 05:15.48 | MonMotha | much like ATX based PCs |
| 05:16.42 | MonMotha | something tells me they won't combine shipping on the 3 |
| 05:16.58 | MonMotha | that's the traditional ebay scum method of making money off shipping and they also charge a $2.50 each "handling" fee |
| 05:17.12 | MonMotha | I suppose I could ask |
| 05:17.20 | MonMotha | that shipping is WAY too high, though |
| 05:18.03 | TimRiker | and for extra kicks... the cable module: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280098396929 |
| 05:18.26 | MonMotha | haha |
| 05:18.32 | MonMotha | I've always wanted one of those |
| 05:18.40 | TimRiker | build your own cable network. |
| 05:19.25 | MonMotha | $$$ |
| 05:19.30 | MonMotha | remember, I live on a student income |
| 05:19.34 | MonMotha | (in other words: $0) |
| 05:20.14 | MonMotha | I wonder what the reserve on that thing is |
