May 27 16:54:21 <Estel_> we've weekend and national holidays in US, so we've left inaugurating blog entyr from council to next week.
May 27 16:54:50 <Estel_> Especially, I wanted to include something from every new council member, and it would be hard, as Woody is out in (literally) wilderness ;)
May 27 16:54:56 <Estel_> enjoying holidays.
May 27 16:55:24 <Estel_> OTOH, there was no reasonm to wait with start of CA, so practice went ahead of meet&greet

May 27 17:20:27 <luke-jr> Estel_: do the submissions have to be Maemo-related, or can they be NIT-related?
May 27 20:09:28 <Estel_> luke-jr, I don't understand?
May 27 20:09:54 <Estel_> are You talking about Community Awards? If so, please read annoucement - it doesn't have to be "anything" related, it's just about contributions to community as a whole

May 27 20:44:36 <Estel_> X-Fade ping
May 27 20:45:39 <Estel_> merlin1991, You haven't answered me, if You're interested in buying Used N900 in ideal condition with reinforced USB port for 200 euro ;p
May 27 20:45:49 <Estel_> as You seemed to be interested last time
May 27 20:56:33 <luke-jr> Estel_: I would be, but at 200 USD :P
May 27 20:57:07 <Estel_> for 200 USD I can sell you one with broken screen and broken USV port ;)
May 27 20:57:10 <Estel_> USB*
May 27 20:58:12 <Estel_> freemangordon, ping
May 27 21:02:04 <vi__> yo bros
May 27 21:06:01 <vi__> freemangordon: ping
May 27 21:06:37 <merlin1991> Estel_: nah 150€ is the upper end of the price range for me
May 27 21:07:00 <Estel_> oh, so even former device, that was sold for 180 euro wasn't in it :)
May 27 21:07:11 <merlin1991> yep
May 27 21:07:14 <Estel_> in  fact, 3 devices
May 27 21:07:36 <merlin1991> I got a perfectly fine one for 130 some time ago :D
May 27 21:07:37 <Estel_> and what about device, erm, visual state, for those 150 euro?
May 27 21:07:44 <Estel_> that wa sjust luck ;)
May 27 21:07:52 <Estel_> msot people consider 180 euro as a bargain
May 27 21:07:57 <Estel_> especially, with soldered down usb port
May 27 21:08:01 <Estel_> (reinforced)
May 27 21:08:04 <merlin1991> though I don't care about scratches on the plastic and stuff, it has to have a screen that is still useable and all the internals should still work
May 27 21:08:11 <Estel_> hm
May 27 21:08:19 <Estel_> so it can be scratched all the way, but usable?
May 27 21:08:23 <merlin1991> yep
May 27 21:08:34 <Estel_> It's possible that i'll have something for 150 euro + shipping. 
May 27 21:08:39 <Estel_> have = possible to find
May 27 21:08:44 <merlin1991> :D
May 27 21:08:58 <Estel_> would be interested in such case?
May 27 21:09:14 <vi__> I got davyp a totally fucked but still working one for £70
May 27 21:09:21 <Estel_> vi__, GTFO :P
May 27 21:09:30 <Estel_> ah sorry
May 27 21:09:32 <Estel_> missread
May 27 21:09:45 <Estel_> I though You've donated it to him for free, lol. not that it's bad thing
May 27 21:09:50 <Estel_> I'm glad we was willing to buy one
May 27 21:10:34 <vi__> visually it was a very unhappy n900, scratched to shit.  However it all still worked inside which was wnough for him to debig phoneME on.
May 27 21:10:36 <Estel_> merlin1991, I'll be in GSM outled tomorrow, physical one
May 27 21:10:53 <vi__> Estel_: the community donated little bits of monies to add up to the £70.
May 27 21:11:00 <Estel_> I see
May 27 21:11:07 <Estel_> merlin1991, if You'
May 27 21:11:09 <vi__> Estel_: I merley bought it and shipped it.
May 27 21:11:23 <vi__> (and also donated monies)
May 27 21:11:26 <Estel_> 're interested and in need of N900, i can sear4ch for something up to 150 euro, but it won't be looking like new ;)
May 27 21:11:49 <Estel_> I would be glad to ship it to You if You can cover hardware costs + shippinbg
May 27 21:12:01 <Estel_> but need to decide fast, as I'm going sleep soon :D
May 27 21:12:44 <Estel_> vi__, where you've found such N900 fow 70 euro?
May 27 21:12:50 <Estel_> even considering full body swap, it's cheap
May 27 21:13:13 <Estel_> and I'm surr full wasn't needed, as flex were, probably, all ok
May 27 21:13:17 <vi__> Estel_: 70 GBP
May 27 21:13:20 <merlin1991> Estel_: he said pounds not euro
May 27 21:13:22 <merlin1991> :D
May 27 21:13:22 <Estel_> ah
May 27 21:13:29 <Estel_> quite a difference
May 27 21:13:42 <merlin1991> Estel_: as long as it still works perfectly I don't care about visual state :)
May 27 21:13:47 <vi__> they drop in quality quite considerably below £90
May 27 21:13:48 <merlin1991> so yeah I'd be interested
May 27 21:13:55 <Estel_> ok, I'm asking, because, if I find something tomorrow, i'll pay with my money...
May 27 21:13:57 <Estel_> ok
May 27 21:14:06 <Estel_> so I just wanted to rest assured that You're decided ;)
May 27 21:14:11 <vi__> even ones with totally fucked USB go for £40-50 in the UK.
May 27 21:14:22 <Estel_> where should it be shipped to? country? I'm asking due to shipping costs calculation
May 27 21:14:27 <merlin1991> austria
May 27 21:14:38 <Estel_> no problem with shipping should be pretty cheap
May 27 21:14:42 <merlin1991> yep :D
May 27 21:14:55 <Estel_> ok, will ping You if I find something
May 27 21:15:11 <Estel_> latets hobby of mine - saving N900's from hand of ignorants LOL
May 27 21:15:25 <Estel_> reinforcing USB ports, and passing them to Community
May 27 21:15:26 <Estel_> lmao
May 27 21:15:30 <Estel_> mission statement
May 27 21:15:37 <merlin1991> and making profit on the way ;)
May 27 21:15:42 <Estel_> merlin - of course this one won't have usb port reinforced, juyst bought and shipped
May 27 21:15:45 <Estel_> merlin1991, in fact almsot not
May 27 21:15:57 <Estel_> someone would sday, that i'mworking for less than Chinese slaves, if we consider
May 27 21:16:00 <Estel_> ammount of work
May 27 21:16:02 <merlin1991> hehe
May 27 21:16:09 <Estel_> and divide money gained per hour
May 27 21:16:11 <merlin1991> I can work on the usb port myself
May 27 21:16:15 <Estel_> I know
May 27 21:16:30 <Estel_> that's why I'm saying it will be pure hardware + shipping cost ;p
May 27 21:16:50 <Estel_> consider this as my donation via helping to get cherap N900 :p
May 27 21:17:25 <merlin1991> hehe
May 27 21:17:36 <Estel_> monetary, by EU standards i'm poor like church mouse ;) so I donate via other ways, most of the time, LOL
May 27 21:29:06 <luke-jr> Estel_: buying one for 220 USD locally
