Motorola Launches A760 Linux and Java Smartphone

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the phoning-home dept.

securitas writes "Motorola launched its A760 Linux and Java smartphone in China today. The dual-mode GSM/GPRS phone uses a version of MontaVista Linux, Motorola's i250 chip for communications, Intel's 200 MHz PXA262 chip (based on the XScale PXA250) for computing with 256 MB RAM, and software that includes a personal information management application, digital camera, a video player, MP3 music player, and an instant-messaging tool. The A760 is the first of Motorola's Linux-based phones. Eventually Motorola plans to use Linux in most of its phones."

    You will be tracked in the future.

    They'll get the children used to the idea and when they grow up, it's a piece of cake to say that "the police must be allowed to track each and everyone of you so that we can fight terrorism".

    It's good to see GPS in more and more products. But with the EU GPS project on hold/cancelled, I wonder what is going to become of the Russian GLONASS system.

    Aparently it has over 100 dead satellites and availability is erratic.. are there any devices that use the GLONASS system and the NAVSTAR one at the same time to enhance location accuracy, or is GLONASS utterly useless?

    3. X11???

    Why don't you use X12? I has better diagnostic analysis but still uses the core X11 ARIMA models.
