           Summary: GSM panel applet keeps on displaying 'Connected to GSM
                    network' notification
           Product: OpenMoko
           Version: 2007.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: openmoko-panel-gsmgprs
        AssignedTo: buglog at lists.openmoko.org
        ReportedBy: chris at openedhand.com

The panel applet keeps on redisplaying 'Connected to GSM network' when switching
cells - This message only needs to be displayed when connecting to a new
network, or when connecting after being disconnected, not whenever a tower is
switched (which can be very often).

Using phone-kit, you could hook onto the "StatusChanged" signal of the network
object, otherwise you need to add logic to ignore successive
NETREG_REG_(HOME|ROAMING) when only the cell ID has changed.

Openmoko-today2 also now displays the network name (and 'registering...' during
connection), so perhaps this notification should be disabled altogether?
