03:34.59 | ZeroHour | anyone know of a few particular cell phones capable of perhaps running a linux distro? |
04:11.33 | MonMotha | OpenMoko would be the most "open" |
04:11.51 | ZeroHour | yeah but don't think i can get that off at&t site :( |
04:12.00 | ZeroHour | let alone any 'open' phone |
04:12.12 | ZeroHour | guess i'll be stuck with something off there i can at least ssh from |
04:12.14 | MonMotha | you're probably not going to be able to get any "hackable" Linux based phone off AT&T's site |
04:12.16 | ZeroHour | maybe the Palm Centro |
04:12.21 | ZeroHour | nah |
04:12.23 | MonMotha | T-Mobile has the HTC Dream aka Google G1 |
04:12.34 | ZeroHour | though there is this Tuxmobil site |
04:12.38 | MonMotha | that's Android, which is Linux based and is fairly open |
04:12.50 | MonMotha | there are lots of Linux based phones, but very few of them expose enough to let you hack on them |
04:13.21 | MonMotha | you should in theory be able to use the OpenMoko on AT&T |
04:13.28 | MonMotha | it's GSM |
04:15.21 | ZeroHour | yeah |
04:15.25 | ZeroHour | long as it takes a sim card |
04:15.33 | MonMotha | it does |
04:15.55 | MonMotha | just be aware that OpenMoko is a tinkerer's device. The software on it is somewhat incomplete |
04:16.03 | MonMotha | it's barely usable as a phone at the moment :) |
04:17.36 | MonMotha | hardware is pretty neat, though. It has a 640x480 screen |
04:17.43 | ZeroHour | lol |
04:17.53 | ZeroHour | barely usable as a phone is BAD for me since i can't work without one |
04:18.04 | ZeroHour | can't call in equip and provision crap without a phone >_< |
04:18.32 | ZeroHour | maybe i should go with the samsung blackjack and ssh from it |
04:18.56 | MonMotha | if all you want is to be able to SSH from your phone, then that's not a very limiting factor |
04:19.01 | MonMotha | there are SSH clients for many, many phones |
04:19.12 | MonMotha | just be aware that the latency will drive you bonkers pretty quickly |
04:19.19 | MonMotha | it's really only useful as an emergency thing |
04:33.00 | ZeroHour | takes all the fun outta it :( |
04:34.37 | persia | Well, depends on the phone. If your phone also has WiFi, and your SSH client can use that, latency isn't so bad. |
04:35.25 | MonMotha | true, I guess I was assuming that he wanted to SSH over the phone network, not local wifi |
04:36.40 | persia | Yeah. That can be painful, whether it's on-phone or using phone-as-modem from something else. |
04:54.59 | caine607 | Hey all. |
04:56.20 | caine607 | So I was thinking about starting to hack on handhelds since it finally hit me that they've gotten cheap enough that I could buy one used for cheap. Trying to figure out where to start but I'm thinking about the HP iPAQ 6515. Any suggestions? Also, is there anything like an watch with this kind of compute power and IRDA? |
