Openmoko™ is an Open Source project under GPL and LGPL license. The aim of Openmoko is to build the world’s first free mobile platform which runs a full X server and can therefore run most X applications. You can install any Openmoko software over the whole range of supported phones, and if you upgrade your phone, you won’t lose that software. Bugs fixed on any phone are fixed on all.

The Neo 1973 (GTA01) from FIC is the first of many phones that Openmoko may be used on. It has now sold out (Feb 08) as you can see at the Openmoko Online Shop. Neo FreeRunner (GTA02) the new generation Openmoko mobile phone is not yet available – press here to get more hardware information. Otherwise, scroll down this page for info on the development status , or you can add your nickname to those interested buying the Neo FreeRunner at Buying Interest List. The Openmoko project is a community that anyone can join, to help design their ideal phone. Please join us in collaborating on the Openmoko project through any of the project resources including this Openmoko wiki. Please see the wiki editing help page for information on making contributions to this wiki. A core team of developers funded by FIC, Inc. leads the project.

To the novice, can start by use introduction page , photos, videos and Openmoko Wiki Official Index Page, to take the overview of Openmoko and wiki. Moreover, the usual Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) and mailing list pages might be helpful. Developers may find the change log an important resource.

Brainstorming is there___

An other application framework has been launched by google few weeks back. After successful launch of google Android platform which was basically for the development of mobile application completely open source as the underlying operatig system was linux and the app programming language was java. Todays’s the last date for the submission of the Android Application challenge.

Application Hosting:

It’s kind of web hosting service, google app engine is providing there server to host/run the application and getting use of the google customer base. the underlying app development language is python.
Requirements:

1- Google App Engine SDK

2- Python 2.5 or >

Why python because python is one of the three languages that has been used by the google developer at the house of google (C++, Java and python).

Break’n or Create’n Monopoly

On one side of the picture it seems that google is breaking the hype of monopoly created by facebook [the ones who put forward the concept of user generated data, application development framework and mashups] the approach then followed by other social netwoking sites like Orkut, hi5 and other wesites. And on the other side google is struggling to compete in the web space by launching such service and pusing developers inside it’s box. Developers hunt

Forcing to get hands dirty again
Now google is again forcing the developer to get their hands dirty with a new API; like me who has expertise in PHP but not in python…

Addiction:
Working on these platforms is addictive; at least for those guys who love to discover and achive new stuff through their programming skills.

Virtual Economy:
In the next 2 to 3 year what i see is that the virtual economy would break the reocrds with the introduction of such service which gives people an opportunity to earn money while sticking to their laptops.

Installing the Java Communications API in a Windows Environment

There are some tricks involved in getting the Java Communications API to correctly interact with the Windows system. Among the items that you download from Sun are three very important files:
1- comm.jar
2- win32com.dll
3- javax.comm.properties

For the JVM to recognize the serial ports, proper placement of these files is important. I’ve read lot’s of messages on the boards, tried various ways of placing these files in a Windows system, and have found the following installation methods to be effective:

comm.jar should be placed in:
%JAVA_HOME%/lib

%JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/ext

win32com.dll should be placed in:
%JAVA_HOME%/bin

%JAVA_HOME%/jre/bin

%windir%System32

javax.comm.properties should be placed in:
%JAVA_HOME%/lib

%JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib

Once you’ve done this, compile and execute one of the sample programs provided by Sun to ensure that you’ve properly installed everything.
