i'm happy with 2008.09 stable, though i have had to make some changes (my
own state files, gsm0710muxd, etc.). i use it as a day-to-day phone and
it works acceptably: resume fails about once every other day, requiring
battery removal, but otherwise receiving calls is fine, making calls is
fine, the bouncing calypso problem has a workaround, echo is under control
and SMS has never been a problem. i have a GTA02v6.
a summary of what i had to do can be found at
