And what about the next idea?<br><br>I think the main screen in the neo is a simple app laucher with some widgets showing<br>info about the state of system components. I don't consider so necessary the vga<br>definition for all that is shown in this screen so use qvga would make it faster and<br>
more fluent.<br><br>In case we use an application that could take advantage to the screen resolution we<br>could launch it forcing the X-windows server to change to vga resolution. After the <br>application ends we could come back to the previous Xwindows state.<br>
<br>This could be a flexible and better performance solution... <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/4/3 Iain B. FIndleton <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ifindleton@videotron.ca">ifindleton@videotron.ca</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">In my case, one of the motivations for looking into the FR was the VGA<br>
graphics capability. Any old phone would do for QVGA level performance.<br>
As for the ferrari analogy, as far as graphics performance goes, it<br>
looks like the Apple produces and their competitors make the FR look<br>
like the poor cousin, which to me means that it does not have far to go<br>
as a phone of the future. Its just an interesting little gadget for<br>
hobbyists.<br>
<br>
Makes me wonder what the designers were thinking.<br>
<br>
For non-graphics intensive applications, however, the FR is quite<br>
adequate in VGA mode.<br>
