Thanks.
Page 22 of the PDF has a blurry image of a device that Sean holds up at 18:30 into the video.

Small, hand held, display, 3 buttons. Almost certainly no speaker. No GSM. Possibly bluetooth?

What would you use that for? ebook reader? brag book? PDA?

What could it give me that the GTA02 doesn't? Bigger screen? longer battery life? cheaper?

Still curious.

I think I heard from Maddog that it was going to be a commercial project. Something *not* for consumers, but for phone companies. So, something like GNU Radio?

Sadly, I couldn't attend his whole Open Telephony talk, and OH MY, it was the only track (of 10!) that we didn't manage to get any video from. A communication error, so very sad. I would've liked to see that talk...
