shenki | llnz: your crappy broadcom wireless card is now supported by the open source driver | 22:37 |
llnz | is it? cool | 22:38 |
shenki | not in any distro yet... but the code is written, and tested | 22:38 |
llnz | i found the bc wl driver is in debian nonfree, which is working fine for now | 22:38 |
llnz | cool | 22:38 |
shenki | you'll probably still get better performance with the wl driver | 22:39 |
llnz | ok | 22:42 |
shenki | 2.6.32 should contain the driver. and perf will improve as time goes on. | 22:42 |
llnz | i suspect i wont change until the drive disappears from debian, or it doesn't load due to the kernel driver | 22:43 |
llnz | cool | 22:43 |
shenki | by the time debian has 2.6.32, you will probably have a new laptop ;) | 22:43 |
llnz | maybe | 22:43 |
llnz | could well have a netbook or android phone by then | 22:44 |
shenki | or an n900 | 22:44 |
shenki | http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/ | 22:44 |
shenki | it runs 'real' linux, as opposed to androids linux kernel+strange userland | 22:45 |
shenki | and you dont need to find security vunerabilies to get root access | 22:45 |
llnz | pretty..... | 22:46 |
llnz | i want | 22:46 |
shenki | heh, yes. thats exactly what i said | 22:46 |
shenki | bye bye android, hello maemo | 22:46 |

alanp | wow | 22:58 |
alanp | too bad that will be >$500 | 22:58 |
alanp | it looks amazing | 22:58 |
* alanp has no budget for it | 22:58 | |
alanp | this is the coolest phone i've ever seen | 22:59 |
alanp | or? it's not a phone? | 22:59 |
alanp | bah! | 22:59 |
llnz | it is a phone | 23:00 |
alanp | it's weird | 23:00 |
llnz | it will be about $1100 here, which is about the same as HTC Magic, and a little more than the iphone 3gs | 23:00 |
alanp | $1100?!?!?! | 23:00 |
llnz | NZ$ that is | 23:01 |
alanp | 1100 NZD = 821 CAD | 23:01 |
alanp | still seems highly overpriced | 23:01 |
alanp | you can get a HTC Magic ~500 | 23:02 |
alanp | (USD) = 728 NZD | 23:02 |
alanp | this is my dream phone :( | 23:02 |
llnz | HTC Magic NZ$1099.00 | 23:04 |
llnz | IPhone 3GS 16GB NZ$1179 | 23:04 |
alanp | order from the US? | 23:04 |
llnz | nope, from the local seller | 23:04 |
llnz | who is the main carrier | 23:04 |
llnz | for both of them | 23:05 |
alanp | right, but can't you just buy it from the US? | 23:05 |
llnz | that's without plans | 23:05 |
llnz | the magic probably could be | 23:05 |
llnz | iphone not | 23:05 |
alanp | iphone might be a problem, yeah | 23:05 |
alanp | n900 looks unbelievable | 23:06 |
* alanp tries not to sign contracts, though | 23:06 | |
alanp | i've had pretty good luck buying phones on eBay | 23:07 |
*** jmtan has quit IRC | 23:21 | |
llnz | i'm currently carrying two cellphones | 23:23 |
llnz | when i get my next phone, i want to only have one | 23:26 |
llnz | and sort out landline phone, etc so that i get the best deal | 23:26 |
alanp | which 2? | 23:27 |

llnz | Sony Ericsson K300i on Vodafone, and a Samsung something that i can't find offhand that was free on Telecom | 23:35 |
llnz | ahh, Samsung M510 | 23:38 |
llnz | my wife is on Vodafone, so basically have to stay on there until we can sort something out | 23:40 |
llnz | only three mobile networks in NZ, Vodafone, Telecom and 2degrees\ | 23:41 |
llnz | vodafone and 2degrees run GSM/UTMS (900/2100 MHz) | 23:42 |
llnz | telecom runs CDMA2000 and UMTS 850/2100MHz | 23:42 |
llnz | 2degrees launched just 3 weeks ago | 23:43 |
