03:28.59SineOtTUV is basically the german FCC, they have to have any wireless devices registered through them... It seems that unlike the FCC, Palm either registered first with TUV, or TUV posted the info early while the FCC is still sitting on it (which they do from time to time with big releases like the iPhone)
03:33.20Zen00I wonder, what would make this release such a big deal to have the FCC sit on it.
03:36.56rwhitbycompanies regularly request confidentiality from the FCC until release date

03:37.19Zen00Yeah, I figured they could do that, but wouldn't they have done the same with the Germans?
03:37.44Zen00Didn't take long to hit the main page.
03:38.31Zen00I wonder if HP/Palm will be angry about this leak, if it was intentional, or what.

03:42.12scoutcampergo TUV!
03:45.05SineOtengadget and the like troll the FCC database and post the interesting bits every friday, so asking for confidentiality until release keeps the FCC from outing your device before it's due
03:45.14SineOtand it might just be something to do with TUV's policies
03:45.27SineOtbecause looking at it, all it really says is that devices with those model numbers got tested
03:45.36SineOtbut not things like what spectrums they got tested on, etc
03:45.42Zen00Not a thing about the.
03:45.44Zen00them.
03:46.03Zen00I really hope that it's not a 4G device, I don't want to have to pay for the added data service. :P
03:46.11Zen003G works more than fine for my needs.
03:48.09Zen00rwhitby: Your new link is not working. :(
03:48.23SineOteh, part of me hopes it's a 4G device... if only because my area is getting 4G roll out right now and it's really, really fast lol
03:48.45SineOtI tried out an Evo 4G and was getting ~7000kbps down :C
03:48.53SineOtour home dsl is like ~3000kpbs :C
03:49.10Zen00Yeah, I have 4G here too, bt really, it's not worth it to me as I don't use a phone as a primary source of connectivity.
03:49.34Zen00I like my desktop thank you very much, built it myself, OC it, water cool it, all that good stuff.
03:50.06Zen00WHY IS TWITTER REDIRECTING ME TO A BLOGGER PAGE AGAIN!!!!!
03:50.57Zen00This has happened twice in the past month, just for several hours Twitter redirects to a random blogger page of some asian girl.
03:51.10Zen00Or another website, don't remember what.
03:51.15Zen00It's real annoying.
03:52.03cryptk|wircsounds like a virus or spyware...
03:52.15Zen00Nah.
03:52.24Zen00I think it has something to do with tabs in Firefox.
03:52.32Zen00As it fixes itself when I close FF.
03:52.46Zen00And I've tested my computer three ways from Sunday for a virus.
03:54.42Zen00Anyways, I'll go to bed, and see what's turned up in the morning.
04:00.19dtzWillanyone around that wouldn't mind testing some kinetic scrolling code i wrote for supernes? :)

04:00.23dtzWill(i can link ipk)
04:01.07cryptk|wircdtzWill: send it
04:02.59SineOtyeah, I like my desktop too, but... my desktop doesn't fit in my pocket and come with me to class :p
04:03.30dtzWillcryptk|wirc: you want preware package id or app cat or do you care?
04:03.39SineOthave you ever tried a port to the Pixi, dtzWill?
04:03.51dtzWillcryptk|wirc: and do you have some roms? if not for testing purposes you can just create a bunnch of empty '.smc' files lol
04:04.00dtzWillSineOt: yes, but it got stopped due to a complete inability to test properly.
04:04.08cryptk|wircI have app cat installed already, but doesn't matter
04:04.18SineOtif you want to give it a shot, I'll do my best to help test~
04:04.46dtzWillcryptk|wirc: kk i'll send preware one, so later if it hits the app cat the one with your saves will always be the one with the clean version, etc :)
04:05.58dtzWillSineOt: i appreciate it, but the issues are generally of the "it won't run at all b/c it's doing something slightly wrong" variety
04:06.06dtzWillSineOt: are you familiar with gdb, etc?
04:06.29SineOtfamiliar in that I've heard of it, but that's about where my experience with it ends
04:06.58dtzWillokay. well i'm swamped with updates to supernes and vba if i have time, but next time pixi hits the top of my todo list i'll poke you :)
04:07.12dtzWillin other words if you sign off IRC i'll blame the lack of a pixi port on YOU
04:07.15dtzWill;)
04:07.21halfhalohahaha
04:08.19SineOtno pressure there, lol
04:08.40dtzWillcryptk|wirc, anyone else that has a second: http://wdtz.org/files/org.webosinternals.supernes.preware_1.0.2_all.ipk
04:09.03dtzWillbig changes are new skin (lol), the kinetic scrolling, remembering where you are in the rom selector for when you return, aaandd
04:09.43dtzWillbetter handling of huge rom collections, making the rom selector faster but won't crash if you have a ridiculous amount of roms :)
04:09.55dtzWillwell, okay it still might if you have like MAX_INT or something, but you know much LESS likely :)
04:10.11dtzWilloh and it'll TRY to create the 'snes/roms' directory for people if it /can/. hopefully that helps some
04:10.19dtzWillaka usability updates really :)
04:11.44dtzWillcryptk|wirc: let me know what you think. i can change things like how quickly it slows down, etc, etc but big question is a "is this an improvement?"
04:11.55dtzWillcryptk|wirc: or does it feel weird and stupid and should go back to how it was :)
04:13.18cryptk|wircone change I would make is that instead of using the speed that they were scrolling at as the start speed, reduce it by about 25%
04:13.33cryptk|wircso as soon as they lift a finger the list slows a little
04:13.42rwhitbybbl
04:13.49dtzWillcryptk|wirc: interesting. i thought it would feel unnatural if taht happened as opposed to extending the 'you're throwing the list' thing.
04:13.52dtzWillbut..i'll give that a shot, ty :).
04:14.03cryptk|wircit is commonly done in kinetic lists and helps it to be more controllable
04:14.04dtzWillhas lots of ideas but is no expert at all.
04:14.16dtzWillcryptk|wirc: yeah i believe you and it does seem a tad out of control O:)
04:14.31cryptk|wircbut the fact that it ticks instead of scrools makes it feel a little clunky IMHO
04:14.55dtzWillcryptk|wirc: okay. i was hoping to avoid the scrolling since it actually would require rewriting a decent portion of that code :)
04:15.06cryptk|wircyeah
04:15.16cryptk|wircbut yes, it is an improovement
04:15.39cryptk|wircand the initial speed drop may not be needed,may just be weird because of the ticking
04:15.53cryptk|wircwait
04:15.58cryptk|wircI found the problem
04:16.15cryptk|wircthe list scrools almost twice as fast as I drag my thumb
04:16.23dtzWillhaha x.x.
04:16.43cryptk|wircmaybe even 3 times as fast
04:17.04cryptk|wircthat makes it hard to predict how far you are going to flick the list
04:17.27cryptk|wircdon't do the initial speed drop, but do make it a 1:1 scroll
04:17.40cryptk|wircthen send me a new build and I will let ya know
04:17.58chrisAevening
04:18.12dtzWillcryptk|wirc: tyvm for the feedback.
04:18.17cryptk|wircwith about 30 entried in the list scrolling halfway puts me from one end to the other
04:18.27cryptk|wircchrisA: evening
04:20.43halfhalothis channel be jumping
04:21.54halfhalogoes back to making a feed plugin for irc
04:24.22cryptk|wircdtzWill: you haven't made my requested changes yet? geeze... slowpoke...
04:24.37dtzWillcryptk|wirc: lol i definitely did but i don't like it good enough yet :).
04:24.44cryptk|wircahh
04:25.01cryptk|wircjust make it 1:1 scroll and it should be good
04:25.28dtzWillcryptk|wirc: i think there's more to it, i'm using a mouse motion event to calculate the initial 'velocity' and i think that's not the best way.
04:25.31dtzWillit just feels... wrong :/
04:25.34cryptk|wircit is just too touchy at 3:1 or whatever it is
04:25.49chrisAThe internals twitter is pretty chatty now
04:26.11halfhaloyup
04:27.16cryptk|wircyep, someone found something, lol
04:29.30SineOthm, new touchstone too? maybe my dream will come true and it'll have wireless USB too :'3
04:30.13cryptk|wircI am thinking more along the lines of a different angle on the top so a tablet can go on it
04:31.02cryptk|wircbecause a computer doesn't put out enough power to run the touchstone
04:31.17chrisANo matter how you look at it, a standard touchstone at any angle would be awkward for a tablet
04:31.26SineOtyou know, that makes me curious
04:31.31cryptk|wircso you would be wirelessly USB'ing to the power company
04:32.06cryptk|wircchrisA: not if it had some kind of support built on it, or placed on it, for a tablet
04:32.20cryptk|wircand that support piece could come with the tablet
04:32.38chrisASo your proposed solution is a widget to clamp on to it
04:32.48chrisAFor a power supply that already likely doesn't supply enough power
04:32.58chrisAI suggest reevaluation :)
04:33.04cryptk|wircor a tablet stand that it would fit inside of
04:33.20cryptk|wirchigher power spec for the new touchstone
04:33.31cryptk|wircto support the tablet
04:33.37cryptk|wircall conjecture here
04:33.47SineOtdoes anyone know what the amp draw is on the Touchstone? I'd assume it's 1A
04:33.53cryptk|wircand I am sure chrisA is laughing his ass off at how wrong I am
04:34.07cryptk|wircI thinl aroung 1A yes
04:34.10chrisAtouchstone charges around 650-700 mA SineOt
04:34.18cryptk|wircs/thinl/think/
04:34.26cryptk|wircthere is your answer
04:34.31chrisAYou're throttled by the battery (I believe the formula is something like .6 * capacity? I forget)
04:34.51chrisAgranted a tablet would have a much larger battery capacity
04:35.34cryptk|wircor perhaps the new touchstone has some basic comms in it
04:35.51SineOtwell, it's more that I'm pretty sure that the iPad requires ~1100mA (that'd be 1.1A, right?) to charge over USB
04:36.01cryptk|wircso the device wouldn't just know it is on A touchstone... but it would know which touchstone it was on
04:36.06SineOtwhich is something that any Mac made in the last like... 4 years can handle over USB
04:36.16SineOtand some PCs
04:36.25halfhalomy work mbp can't handle ipad charging
04:36.43halfhalo2007 model iirc
04:36.49dtzWillcryptk|wirc: give that a shot? (updated, same link)
04:36.51chrisAI'd have to check the spec again, but I recall usb 2.0 only guarantees 500 mA
04:37.00chrisASome will do higher yes, but it's not safe to rely on it
04:37.10cryptk|wircindeed, ipad does violate the charging spec
04:37.13SineOtseems the earliest it came on was 2007
04:37.20cryptk|wircthat is why tons of ipad users are pissed
04:37.34rwhitbychrisA: gotta love public cert dbs ;)
04:37.38cryptk|wirctheir computers won't charge it
04:38.01chrisArwhitby: I prefer to learn of them via prototypes and schematics :)
04:38.07chrisAThough I guess I get no more of those
04:38.35cryptk|wircchrisA: why wouldn't you? you stop working for HP/palm?
04:38.43chrisAmmhmm

04:40.04cryptk|wircdtzWill: better...
04:40.16cryptk|wircbut it still doesn't seem to be 1:1
04:40.36cryptk|wircbut how far off it is seems to vary bu how fast I am dragging
04:40.44cryptk|wircactually I kinda like it
04:41.16cryptk|wircdrag real slow and it scrolls slower than the drag, drag real fast and it scrolls faster than the drag
04:41.19SineOthm, looking at it: USB 3.0 has moved spec to allow at least to 900ma for charging, but that USB 2.0 spec is recommended to cap at 1500ma with the minimum being 500ma? I think
04:41.38chrisA1500? That's more than wall chargers even draw
04:42.05cryptk|wircyeah, highest wall charger I have seen is like 1.2A
04:42.21SineOtapparently the USB spec says that dedicated wall chargers are allowed to go to 1.8A
04:43.42cryptk|wirc1.8A? wow...
04:44.17*** join/#webos-internals jhowirc (~jhowirc@unaffiliated/jhowirc)
04:44.29cryptk|wircwtf are they gonna charge? a car battery?
04:44.37halfhalohmmm......
04:44.45SineOtyeah, from the USB Forum's guidelines on Battery Charging: "The standard-A connectors defined in the USB 2.0 specification are rated for 1500 mA."
04:44.52halfhaloIdea....
04:45.30cryptk|wirc??
04:45.34SineOtand if you're doing USB 2 high speed data transfer, you're downrated to 900mA
04:45.57cryptk|wircSineOt: to prevent interfearance
04:46.15SineOtso given this document is almost 2 years old, I think it's been USB spec, it's just that since the minimum you're required to meet the spec is 500ma, a lot of companies just play things cheap and go for the 500ma and -only- 500ma route
04:46.16SineOtyes
04:46.23chrisAI would rather work with SPI, I2C, or any number of other things than USB
04:46.29SineOtbut if there's no data, 1500mA
04:46.49SineOtso a USB powered Touchstone would be doable
04:47.32SineOttrying it on my Mini that has the 1150mA ports, it cycles on and off as a charger (probably because it's no requesting to be bumped to ~1150mA or whatever since there's no chip in it, since it doesn't get reported as a USB device)

04:48.10bpadalinousb is pretty damned complicated when it comes down to it .. :(
04:48.17SineOtyes it is
04:48.18cryptk|wircSineOt: the 1500 probably only applies to USB A
04:48.27cryptk|wircwhat about the smaller connectors
04:48.28chronomexUSB is a lot like IBM's old networking protocol SNA actually ...
04:48.38cryptk|wirckarathos: hi
04:48.40bpadalinois it ?
04:48.46karathoshow can I make my stock pre plus use less battery when it's in my pocket not in use
04:48.55bpadalinopower it down
04:49.03SineOtcryptk|wirc: if you're attaching it to a touchstone, I don't see why they couldn't just use USB A though
04:49.10chrisAkarathos: set email to sync less, turn off messenging when not in use
04:49.32cryptk|wirckarathos: third party kernel, screenstate governor downclocking the phone while screen is off
04:49.59cryptk|wircSineOt: because then it would be a separate cable than the one normally used on the phone
04:50.00karathosI did the email and sync already thanks though
04:50.16karathosI just recently got the govnah
04:50.25cryptk|wircwhich would make the device seem more complicated
04:50.35cryptk|wirckarathos: what kernel are you using?
04:50.58karathosand was messing with that for a minute but there's some technical stuff in there I just don't know
04:51.11karathosusing the stock kernel
04:51.29karathosI was thinking about that uberkernel or whatever
04:51.39dtzWillcryptk|wirc: it will continue to scroll using the delta between the last two mouse events as its metric.
04:51.57dtzWillcryptk|wirc: i think it should somehow consider time or...something better.
04:52.08dtzWillalso feel like i'm reinventing the (scroll)wheel
04:52.11dtzWilllol @ my own joke
04:52.17cryptk|wirckarathos: with stock kernel govnah won't do much for you
04:52.35cryptk|wircSineOt: the 1500ma only applies to wall chargers
04:52.58karathosso I have to get the uber. And that will let me throttle it down when I'm not using it?
04:52.58cryptk|wircon a system devices are limited to 5 unit loads in high-power mode
04:53.06cryptk|wirckarathos: yes
04:53.27cryptk|wircone unit load in USB 2.0 is 100ma
04:53.51cryptk|wircso max 500ma per port in USB 2.0 on a computer
04:53.52karathosI know I'm not gonna fry it by throttling it. But is there any other mishaps that this could cause?
04:54.18cryptk|wircif you have a 'weak phone' then it could hang
04:54.24cryptk|wircand refuse to boot
04:54.35cryptk|wircwhich would then require a doctor
04:54.57karathospre plus isn't weak right?
04:54.59cryptk|wircand no way to tell before hand if your phone is 'weak' or not
04:55.07cryptk|wircit would be
04:55.15cryptk|wircit isn't specific to not plus
04:55.22cryptk|wircany phone can be weak
04:55.27karathosI don't understand
04:55.47cryptk|wircweak as in it can't handle very low or very high speeds
04:56.08cryptk|wirchas nothing to do with plus model or not plus model
04:56.28cryptk|wirchas to do with the processor (which all pre's have the same one)
04:56.42karathosI thought pre plus had a diff processor than pre
04:56.47halfhalonope
04:56.50karathosoh okay
04:57.29karathosso then I could risk breaking my phone if I throttle it?
04:58.04halfhalonot really, but you do void the warrenty
04:58.45karathosstock)
04:58.50cryptk|wircand aftermarket kernel voids warranty
04:58.55halfhaloI don't think there have been any reports of phones being bricked by throttling them
04:59.04cryptk|wircnot bricked no

05:12.38cryptk|wircthe thing is, to get over 5 unit loads is to short the data pins
05:13.05SineOtcan't you sync -and- charge an iPad at the same time?
05:13.14cryptk|wircwell, the only way to get it out of a PC
05:13.25cryptk|wircI don't think it does
05:13.57SineOtlike I said, I think what it is is just that the USB spec only says that you have to do 5 unit loads for a total of 500ma, anything more is extra, so they don't
05:14.02cryptk|wircon a battery specced computer I think the ipad will charge only while not transmitting data
05:14.23cryptk|wirccorrection, per USB spec it cannot charge and send data
05:14.24SineOtbecause reading the USB thing on battery charging, they've got instructions on how your device can operate all the way up to 1800mA
05:14.45cryptk|wircunless it can charge off of 500ma
05:15.14cryptk|wircwhich is the mose power a spec compliant system can send while sending/recieving data
05:15.28SineOtcan it? there's mention of if you're using USB Highspeed you're limited to 900mA to prevent interference with the data portion, and if you're using Full Speed or Low Speed you're allowed a lot higher mA
05:15.45cryptk|wircSineOt: yes, but to get that kind of power you have to either use a wall charger OR short the data pins
05:16.26SineOtI'm really wishing I had an iPad with me :p
05:16.44cryptk|wircwithout shorting D+ and D- a device will only get 500ma from a compliand USB controller
05:16.54cryptk|wircyou don't need one, read the spec
05:16.59halfhalowoah there nelly... thats alot of undefined...
05:17.06cryptk|wircthe ipad violates the spec
05:18.24SineOtI am reading the spec?
05:18.30SineOt"Battery Charging Specification, Revision 1.1"
05:18.44SineOt"Portable Device Current from Charging Downstream Port at High-speed" would be a standard USB port, wouldn't it?

05:19.38cryptk|wircyes
05:20.09jack87cryptk|wirc: where does all this awesome knowledge come from?
05:20.10SineOtthey list it as being a max 900mA
05:20.21SineOtif you operate at low speed or full speed, 1500mA
05:20.26SineOtwith no data, 1800mA
05:20.31cryptk|wircis that the 2.0 or 3.0 spec
05:20.40SineOt2.0 spec
05:20.43*** join/#webos-internals muchtall (~muchtall@75-146-189-25-Minnesota.hfc.comcastbusiness.net)
05:20.46cryptk|wirc3.0 allows 6 units at 150ma per unit
05:20.48SineOtthis is from April 2009
05:22.27SineOtlooking at it, I think what it is is that the minimum you can have while being considered in spec is 6 units at 150mA a unit
05:23.30SineOthttp://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/batt_charging_1_1.zip this is the document I'm finding this in, if you're curious
05:23.51cryptk|wircSineOt: 5 and 6 unit loads are the maximums
05:24.02cryptk|wircbut that is for data spec
05:24.24cryptk|wircthing is, battery charging spec is kinda new and as such not all mobo's support it
05:24.53cryptk|wircwhich is why you will not see a PC USB touchstone
05:25.04cryptk|wircor it is at least less likely
05:25.49halfhalohas sucess!
05:26.10SineOtman this gets confusing
05:26.15SineOt"Thus, a Portable Device is able to communicate with a Charging Downstream Port at low-speed or full-speed when drawing a current of IDEV_CDP_LFS max."
05:26.24SineOtIDEV_CDP_LFS max is 1500mA
05:28.00SineOtif you assume a similar life time to the current touchstone, which is probably going to be 2 years old when the new one releases, I'd say it'd be worth betting that most mobos would be able to supply 1A over USB by that point :p
05:29.07cryptk|wircthey could just make the stone support it... and if your computer doesn't then 'sorry'
05:29.17cryptk|wirc'use the wall plug'
05:29.24SineOtyeah, exactly
05:29.38SineOtsimilar to what Apple has done with the iPad
05:29.43cryptk|wircnot palms fault you have old hardware, lol
05:29.48SineOt"won't charge on USB? good thing we gave you a wall plug"
05:33.45SineOtif a touchstone can do charging and USB through induction via some magic, then by golly they'd have a (near) perfect device
05:34.07cryptk|wircSineOt: bluetooth receiver in the touchstone
05:34.19cryptk|wircproblem solved
05:34.54cryptk|wircerr radio, not receiver
05:35.00SineOtthat'd be cool
05:35.10SineOtit'd be dumb if it was anything other than Bluetooth 3 though
05:35.39SineOt2.1mbps versus 24mbps versus 480mbps
05:36.04cryptk|wircyeah
05:37.11SineOtoh wow that's kind of dumb, way to go Bluetooth SIG: "It supports theoretical data transfer speeds of up to 24 Mbit/s, though not over the Bluetooth link itself. Instead, the Bluetooth link is used for negotiation and establishment, and the high data rate traffic is carried over a colocated 802.11 link"
05:37.36SineOtso they just coopt wifi for the higher speeds on BT3, and still only get 24mbit out of it?
05:38.26SineOtengadget has new WebOS 2.0 screen shots. You can set the alarms to have an ascending volume :'3
05:38.27halfhalooh, oh, oh!  Just froze textmate!
05:38.59cryptk|wircBT3 has dual radios yes, it is like cell phones and 4G data
05:39.07halfhaloaccidentally tried to open the packages.db file... which, as you guess, is full of packages
05:39.16cryptk|wircthey use wimax for the high speed basically
05:39.25cryptk|wirchalfhalo: lol
05:39.58halfhalohmmm... its only 1.1MB.....
05:40.22cryptk|wircprobably can't display the binary data and it got hung
05:40.23SineOtyeah, it's just kind of sad that they're still only getting a theoretical max of 24mbit out of it
05:40.34SineOtis what I meant
05:40.57cryptk|wircI know bandwidth is somewhat determined by frequencies used
05:41.28cryptk|wircask ka6sox-work he may know more info about radio frequencies/bandwidth... he is a radio tower guy
05:41.31halfhalothinks this is a sign to give up for the night....
05:41.39SineOtgiven it's probably operating in the same 2.4 and 5ghz ranges as 11g and 11n, though...
05:41.56cryptk|wircnot sure, never looked into it
05:42.33SineOtcurrent bluetooth 1/2+EDR operates in the 2.4ghz range
05:42.50SineOtsince 3 has backwards compat with 1/2 I'd assume it's the same

18:05.17ryan[WIN]http://www.diod.es/ryanwin/shippre.zip   - current BAD scheme is t/v are left/right and f/h are up/down and p is fire
18:05.57ryan[WIN]you need to have a terminal program to invoke it since it's not in an ipk yet
18:08.44MercuryAny reason not to use the accelerometar for that and tapping on the screen for fire?
18:10.01ryan[WIN]it treats it as a joystick in SDL right

22:52.21idontwan2knowI could be wrong, but I think this is a major mistake.
22:53.13idontwan2knowWaiting another couple months and anouncing it just before the holiday buying season kicks into gear would have been much smarter...the product would be fresh in people's minds and might convince them to hold off on a tablet purchase until they can get a playbook

23:03.57dtzWillthere you go :)
23:03.58RagingMindI'm actually quite pissed off by this... it's going to take me a while to pick apart this big f***ed up pool of pictures into something manageable
23:04.25dtzWillRagingMind: are the timestamps on the files accurate? maybe you could use those to do your renaming
23:05.38RagingMinddtzWill, yeah I can separate them out that way, but that doesn't solve my name collision problem
23:05.51SineOt^ "Improved Photo Naming" patch
23:06.07RagingMindI have a very particular way that I manage my photos... I have a folder that is named for the device that took them
23:06.40RagingMindand I kinda use the numbers that are assigned when the photo is taken like a serial number
23:07.21RagingMindnow I have to go though and figure out what all of the recent photos *should* have been numbered to make it fit
23:07.48SineOtwell, you pretty much have one of two options: rage about it, or use the Improved Photo Naming patch and just deal with dates instead of arbitrary number schemes ;P
23:08.11RagingMindif I had one wish right now it'd be that the person that decided this would be the default behavior would get fired

23:15.30idontwan2knowugh...people complaining about webOS on printers don't get it
23:16.00idontwan2knowPeople need printers. People already buy HP printers. They'll still buy HP printers with webOS, whether they "need" it or not.
23:16.19halfhaloyeah... but I want to play angry birds while printing!
23:17.23idontwan2knowHP will sell 15 million webOS printers next year. That's 2-3 times the number of Palm phones they could hope to sell in their wildest dreams.
23:17.48idontwan2knowAnd every one of them is a potential customer for app developers.
23:20.03dtzWillI mean whatever they're named now, if their timestamps encode the ordering you want, use that to create new names for all those photos
23:27.27dtzWillbut anyway that might not work for a number of reasons, just making sure my suggestion was clear :)
23:27.49basotlI think the WebOS printers sound nice for networked use.

23:28.37idontwan2knowI agree...disconnecting the printer from the need for a PC is a great thing and webOS is just the thing to do it.

23:31.56RagingMindi imagine they'll just use webos to replace whatever software they currently have in their printers with touch screens.  I saw a few of them at office max.

23:32.37dtzWillthat blackberry tablet looks pretty sweet. basically what i'd want from a webos tablet at first glance anyway.
23:32.55dtzWillalthough i am rather attached to webos, they sure did a fantastic job on that video from where i'm siting :)
23:32.56ryan[WIN]if i went back in time
23:33.05ryan[WIN]and told people that we'd be making homebrew apps for printers
23:33.11ryan[WIN]they'd say "ur crazy"
23:33.57idontwan2knowdtzWill: I agree, it does look like a pretty nice piece of kit
23:34.21dtzWillryan[WIN]: go back farther and explain what a printer is and you'd say you're crazy ;)
23:34.45ryan[WIN]you can always tell how old a programming language is by whether or not it includes a "print" statement
23:34.55ryan[WIN]because it used to mean actually printing :<
23:34.57SineOtgo back far enough and show a lighter and they'll think you're crazy :p
23:35.55RagingMindthey'd think you're a witch and try to burn you
23:36.26dtzWillRagingMind: luckily you gave them a lighter so starting the fire is a lot easier
