Hello, this idea could be great, <br>but this option could shut up the phone when you walk,no ?<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2007/10/12, Dietz Proepper <<a href="mailto:dietz.openmoko@rotfl.franken.de">dietz.openmoko@rotfl.franken.de

<br>accelerometer. If it came up before, sorry for the bandwidth.<br><br>But now, for the real stuff.<br>The following scenario, you carry your phone in some pocket. Now it rings,<br>but you want it to get quiet quickly. What happens? You start digging for
<br>your phone, struggle for the "get quiet" button. Wouldn't it be more<br>comfortable to simply knock at the pocket (and therefore the phone),<br>detect the acceleration of the shock and shut off the bell? I don't have a
<br>Neo to try, but if the accelerometer is sensible enough to realize such an<br>event, it should be quite easy to implement I think.<br>If that works, making "knocking the phone" some kind of input event might
<br>be the next logical step...<br><br>What do you think?<br><br>kindest regards,<br> Dietz Proepper<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>OpenMoko community mailing list<br><a href="mailto:community@lists.openmoko.org">
