Python and more: Comparison of Camera Phones
http://pycage.blogspot.com/2012/01/comparison-of-camera-phones.html
Sunday, January 1, 2012. Comparison of Camera Phones. For two years the N900 was my digital camera. With the mobile phone replacing my digital camera I don't have to carry an extra device with me. Besides that my old digicam is broken and thanks to the N900 I didn't have to buy another one. However, the good old days of the N900 are gone. Can any of Nokia's new phones keep up with the N900 camera-wise? The Lumia 800 is Nokia's current flagship Windows Phone 7 device. It has stolen the design from the...

Python and more: WeTab - A Look at the first MeeGo Tablet
http://pycage.blogspot.com/2010/10/wetab-look-at-first-meego-tablet.html
Saturday, October 30, 2010. WeTab - A Look at the first MeeGo Tablet. A lot has been written in German media about the WeTab. Mostly, every news magazine tried to compare the Tab to Apple's iPad and came to the conclusion that it's not an iPad. What a surprise! I've been using my WeTab 32GB for about a month, and this is what I can tell about it. Hell, I enjoy it! The hardware is manufactured by Asus, or more precisely, their OEM branch Pegatron. The Canadian ExoPC. The soon to be released dockingstation.

Python and more: FM Radio for the N800
http://pycage.blogspot.com/2010/01/fm-radio-for-n800.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. FM Radio for the N800. The Nokia N800, introduced in January 2007, was the first internet tablet from Nokia that featured a FM tuner chip (without RDS unfortunately). And now the popular FM Radio application from the N900 is coming to the N800 real soon! I'm currently working on N800 support in the application so that both devices will be sharing a common code-base. See FM Radio on the N800 in action:. Is it a radio tuner or a radio emitter? January 31, 2010 at 8:18 AM. Silly ba...

Sunday, October 11, 2009. Update on the N900 FM Radio. We can receive FM radio on the N900 now. Controlling the FM radio in the N900 is tricky stuff. At first, the hardware is disabled for power saving reasons. Bluetooth has to be powered up, the I2C communication bus has to be powered up, and only then, the FM radio driver will actually load. I have created a package n900-fmrx-enabler. Does the job, after enabling PGA line2 and PGA capturing in the mixer. I have uploaded an application package fmradio.
