[12:49] <Wavesonics> hola
[12:50] <Wavesonics> i notice you can only pre-order, i thought the touch book had released?
[12:52] <Wavesonics> anyone here?
[12:55] <Corsac> touchbook v1 yes, but now it's v2 time (or smartbook)
[12:55] <Corsac> which has been announced, but not yet released
[12:55] <Wavesonics> so you cant get the V1 anymore?
[12:55] <Corsac> nop
[12:55] <Wavesonics> ah damn :(
[12:55] <Corsac> hmhm, well
[12:55] <Wavesonics> any idea how far along the v3 is?
[12:55] <Corsac> maybe
[12:55] <Wavesonics> er v2
[12:56] <Corsac> https://www.alwaysinnovating.com/store/product.php?productid=2&cat=1&page=1 might be orderable
[12:56] <Corsac> but that might need a confirm from AI
[12:57] <Corsac> alextisserant: ping?
[13:00] <Wavesonics> hhmmm
[13:08] <Wavesonics> any rough time frame for the V2 to come out?
[13:08] <alextisserant> Corsac: pong
[13:08] <Corsac> alextisserant: see above, is the tb v1 still on sale?
[13:08] <alextisserant> we'll have some left, yes
[13:09] <alextisserant> so you can order it
[13:09] <alextisserant> they will not be ready before v2, though
[13:09] <alextisserant> (the bottleneck being the motherboards, currently in production)
[13:10] <Corsac> you have some left but not in stock?
[13:10] <Corsac> Wavesonics: -^
[13:14] <Wavesonics> how does that work :P
[13:24] <Wavesonics> well anyway tahts cool, any super rough idea when the v3 will be ready? this year? 1st half next year?
[13:25] <sipa1024> does it matter? i mean... before you have any idea what the v3 will bring?
[13:28] <Wavesonics> uhg i keep typing v3, i mean v2
[13:30] <Wavesonics> sipa1024, i meant v2, any idea when that will be?
[13:30] <sipa1024> no :)
[13:33] * Dmrg (~miguelgf@236.13.60.213.dynamic.mundo-r.com) has left #touchbook
[13:34] <Wavesonics> hehe ok
[13:34] <Wavesonics> looks like a really sweet eco-system, the full smart book
[13:34] <Wavesonics> boy would love to see a wireless HDMI dongle or something, be able to push video right from the device to your TV
[13:35] <sipa1024> my dad has a tv with a wireless receiver box
[13:35] <Wavesonics> does it work well?
[13:35] <Wavesonics> how do u transmit to it, USB dongle on the computer side?
[13:35] <sipa1024> it's a box, with hdmi and cable and vga and ... inputs
[13:36] <Wavesonics> o
[13:36] <Wavesonics> thats not quite what im getting at
[13:36] <sipa1024> ok
[13:36] <MatthiasF> these box only need to transmit lowbitrate compressed videos
[13:36] <sipa1024> oh i c
[13:36] * _koen_ (~x0115699@nat/ti/x-brpvpjrghqjcrord) Quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
[13:36] <sipa1024> wifi doesn't suffice?
[13:37] <Wavesonics> in what way, how do u use it to make ur TV into a screen for ur netbook
[13:37] <MatthiasF> not for 1080P@30fps
[13:37] <Wavesonics> well 802.11n *could* handle it
[13:37] <sipa1024> lowbitrate compressed videos != 1080P@30fps
[13:37] <sipa1024> well, it might of course, and be crappy quality
[13:37] <Wavesonics> this is like what im talking about
[13:37] <Wavesonics> http://www.intel.com/consumer/products/technology/wirelessdisplay.htm
[13:37] <Wavesonics> but no one uses it
[13:38] <Wavesonics> huh
[13:38] <Wavesonics> i think WiDi might actually use wifi
[13:39] <Wavesonics> o it does
[13:39] <Wavesonics> sweet
[13:39] <MatthiasF> sipa1024: that's what I mean. your box only needs to transmit a lowquality TV signal, this can be done over the wifi
[13:39] <Wavesonics> AI just needs a dongle for ur TV that they can package with the touch book!
[13:40] * t_s_o (~tso@116.84-48-228.nextgentel.com) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[13:41] <Wavesonics> so.... maybe v2 comes out this year?
[13:41] <Wavesonics> possible?
[13:46] * t_s_o (~tso@116.84-48-228.nextgentel.com) has joined #touchbook
[13:49] <Wavesonics> i'm not clear on how the MID fits in the SmartBook, does it actually fit in the case somewhere?
[13:49] <Corsac> inside
[13:49] <Corsac> it's the motherboard
[13:50] <Wavesonics> oh no way
[13:50] <Wavesonics> thats interesting
[13:50] <Wavesonics> so if u take the MID out then that tablet does not function i take it?
[13:51] <MMlosh> Wavesonics, not if you have non-MID mainboard you'd plug in instead
[13:51] <MMlosh> or that usb2hdmi thingy..that makes tablet function too :P
[13:51] <Wavesonics> well ya but im not likely to buy 2 :P
[13:51] <Wavesonics> thats kinda true actually
[13:51] <Wavesonics> kinda cool
[13:51] <Wavesonics> thats pretty bad ass u can hot swap OSs at run time
[13:53] <Wavesonics> i have a full laptop so i am not sure where this would fit in my digital life, but its just so damn cool ill probably buy it anyway lol
[13:54] <Wavesonics> any rough idea on battery life in the V2?
[13:55] <MMlosh> I'm sure it depends on the configuration
[13:55] <MMlosh> and attached peripherials
[13:55] <MMlosh> and linux kernel version ;)
[13:56] <Wavesonics> ya

[13:57] <Wavesonics> haha god damn that OS hot switch is just crazy!

[14:29] <EiNSTeiN_> Corsac: the way I understand, the mini book is a separate device from the tablet, both have their own main board
[14:33] <MatthiasF> there is only one board (in the MID)

[14:42] <EiNSTeiN_> I see
[14:46] <EiNSTeiN_> so the smart book is useless when the MID is not inside of it
[14:46] <MatthiasF> it can be used as a display
[14:47] <EiNSTeiN_> ah right
[14:47] <EiNSTeiN_> that's a bit disappointing...
[14:47] <EiNSTeiN_> but I'm getting one anyway!
[14:47] <MatthiasF> did you really want 2 computers at this price ? you can always buy an additional MID
