[4:56] <Yoshi47> "The current Touch Book production is in stand-by and will resume at the beginning of the summer when we will release our newest and craziest innovation."
[4:56] <Yoshi47> is there any specs available for this?
[4:58] <Meizirkki> nothing
[5:00] <Meizirkki> If it goes the usual Always Innovating way it's going to be beginning of the summer 2011 -.-
[5:00] <Yoshi47> Umm
[5:00] <Meizirkki> sorry
[5:00] <Meizirkki> I'm a bit negative
[5:01] <Meizirkki> Touch Book was the worst thing I have ever wasted my money on
[5:02] <Mrkva> Meizirkki: oh come on.. you're always saying that :)
[5:02] <Meizirkki> I'm sorry
[5:02] <Meizirkki> I should shut up already :P
[5:06] <Mrkva> Meizirkki: I think every regular visitor already know that
[5:06] <Mrkva> well, I must admit that my touchbook is hidden in the drawer
[5:06] <Aard> Meizirkki: aww, I'm quite having fun with mine. finally something that asks for hardware mods :)
[5:07] <Mrkva> first I have finish my tesla coil, and then I can play with something else

[5:25] * robclark (~robclark@nat/ti/x-qafdxhjnmismqkrr) has joined #touchbook
[5:28] <lamawithonel> Summer "officialy" begins on June 21 or 22... the solstice.
[5:29] <lamawithonel> personaly, I've always considered Summer to be the warmest months of the year, and that's been since April here in Washington, DC
[5:29] <Yoshi47> what does anyone have against the touchbook?
[5:31] <lamawithonel> it's basicly a public release of Alpha stage tech.
[5:33] <dpb> yeah, alpha hardware, pre-alpha software
[5:33] <lamawithonel> I think the idea was to crowdsource the development, but the PR campaing makes you think it's a consumer ready product
[5:34] <dpb> yeah
[5:37] <lamawithonel> If you're a developer looking to learn about the OMAP platform, BeagleBoard, ARM and embedded in general, it's really a great product.
[5:39] * robclark (~robclark@nat/ti/x-qafdxhjnmismqkrr) Quit (Quit: robclark)
[5:40] <Aard> I've always seen it from the beginning more as a development/hacking platform than a platform to use for daily stuff. maybe that's why I'm not disappointed
[5:40] <Mrkva> 32 DEGC in the shade here
[5:41] <Mrkva> lamawithonel, Aard: completely agree with you!
[5:42] <Aard> and for that purpose it's actually in quite a good shape
[5:48] * killring (~killring@adsl-76-234-168-26.dsl.sfldmi.sbcglobal.net) has joined #touchbook
[5:54] <Yoshi47> lamawithonel, perfect, thats what i want to use it for
[5:54] <Yoshi47> i like fiddling with things
[5:54] <Yoshi47> Mrkva, ouch
[5:58] <Mrkva> I really want huge storm. NOW!
[5:58] <Mrkva> :)
[5:58] <Yoshi47> Mrkva, where are you?
[5:58] <Mrkva> Yoshi47: Czech Republic
[6:00] <lamawithonel> Yoshi47: in respone to your original question, the BeableBoard-xm is set to ship on the 30th of this month. Speculation has it that the "crazy innovation" will be an upgrade based on that board.
[6:00] <Mrkva> and no, no storm warning has been issued yet :( at least for this region
[6:01] <Yoshi47> so this is a beable board in it?
[6:01] <Mrkva> Yoshi47: almost
[6:02] <Yoshi47> so they kinda rework what beagle board has into a form factor for the touch book?
[6:02] <Mrkva> Yoshi47: well, there are some drawbacks
[6:02] <Mrkva> like missing tv out
[6:02] <Yoshi47> im sure you can hack that in, no?
[6:02] <Mrkva> Yoshi47: never tried that
[6:02] <Yoshi47> hdmi out,
[6:03] <Yoshi47> beagle board has it
[6:03] <Mrkva> lamawithonel: there aren't going to be any big differences between BB and BB-xm
[6:03] <Mrkva> Yoshi47: nope
[6:03] <Yoshi47> so ask the touch book people to put a hdmi output connector in
[6:03] <Mrkva> lamawithonel: well, added ethernet connector
[6:03] <lamawithonel> the hdmi out on the bb is acctualy dvi in an hdmi form-factor. on the tb that is what supplies the lcd.
[6:04] <lamawithonel> and faster cpu
[6:04] <lamawithonel> and mini-sd
[6:04] <Yoshi47> Mrkva, its only supposed to be high of 29 there today?
[6:05] <Yoshi47> lamawithonel, ah,
[6:05] <Yoshi47> im sure there is a way
[6:05] <Yoshi47> just reroute with a switch maybe
[6:05] <Yoshi47> just guessing
[6:05] <Yoshi47> Mrkva, you must be in a hotspot, no wind?
[6:06] * phcoder (~phcoder@cx-public-docking-1-161.ethz.ch) has joined #touchbook
[6:08] <lamawithonel> Yoshi47: there are several pads on the lcd's pcb, several of them marked with what look like signal abbriviations
[6:08] <lamawithonel> I havn't looked into it much
[6:08] <lamawithonel> but the mainboard dosn't seem to support the secondary video out
[6:09] <lamawithonel> several compremises where made in the design of the mainboard, and several pins on the BGA chip left grounded.

[6:18] <Yoshi47> lamawithonel, you just took those?
[6:20] * t_s_o (~tso@183.84-49-135.nextgentel.com) has joined #touchbook
