Jun 23 03:03:51 twbbas: the "phone" part goes through their cell infrastructure and gets processed by their servers, it's NO VoIP Jun 23 03:04:10 NuttyBunny: we need a FREE google voice app Jun 23 03:04:12 PatrickC: Heretic! Don't touch apple stuff! you'll get infected!! Jun 23 03:04:20 PatrickC: The only time I've used an iPad was at the Apple store and it was for about 60 secs. One thing though... so smooth at scrolling. Jun 23 03:04:27 PatrickC: At least we have a SIP phone :) Jun 23 03:04:28 webOS needs that kind of scrolling smoothness Jun 23 03:04:41 NuttyBunny: had to.. needed to use it to play a vid.. :/ Jun 23 03:04:51 twbbas: Sure, make it stop doing things in background and it will become smooth :P Jun 23 03:04:58 Haha Jun 23 03:04:59 haha Jun 23 03:05:00 brb, gotta make dinner for gf :) Jun 23 03:05:17 Predictions for 3.0 on Pre 3/Veer/Pre 2? Jun 23 03:05:22 I'm guessing september/october Jun 23 03:05:53 Pre³ will have enyo at launch (or should) Jun 23 03:06:01 I thought it was shipping with 2.3? Jun 23 03:06:03 no they cant do it yet Jun 23 03:06:15 Epyon22: why not? Jun 23 03:06:19 it ships with 2.2 Jun 23 03:06:28 someone that worked for palm was on here earlier and enyo is only licened for webos tabliet Jun 23 03:06:29 I don't think any 2.x has enyo in it though Jun 23 03:06:54 singmajesty? Jun 23 03:07:43 yeah Jun 23 03:11:41 for right now at least Jun 23 03:12:18 Yup, ENYO is only going on the Tablet for now Jun 23 03:12:26 Pre3 and Veer will get it later Jun 23 03:12:44 hopfully, the pace will pick up and bridge the gaps to make the fragmentation short Jun 23 03:14:04 if the tablet and pre3 sell well im sure the pace will increase substantally Jun 23 03:15:31 The key is how app worthy will the Pre3 be at launch. Cause it seems the push for developing is on ENYO and Mojo is forgetten Jun 23 03:17:26 yeah Jun 23 03:22:52 I assume enyo will be in whatever 2.x version come with the Pre3 Jun 23 03:22:58 oops Jun 23 03:23:10 I didn't say [REDACTED] Jun 23 03:25:50 I... you don't need to say [redacted] if you're just talking about it Jun 23 03:26:08 everyone knows it's there, [redacted] is only for your own apps :) Jun 23 03:27:48 does the iphone do dnla video watching? Jun 23 03:29:40 I have no idea, but if so, I'm sure it's apple specific in some way or another Jun 23 03:30:40 yeah probably. i know android doesnt do it unless you root the phone. Jun 23 03:31:07 maybe ill look into that for webos. might be over my head though Jun 23 03:43:36 http://bobc.in/im/drop/cc/mb/f3co-1 Jun 23 03:53:48 LoneStar99: explain your link Jun 23 03:55:33 bnceo: it was created using my pre Jun 23 03:56:08 it is not a an image but a dynamic representation of a link Jun 23 03:56:14 sorry of an image Jun 23 03:58:38 best viewed with safari, webos device, or opera Jun 23 04:00:17 http://bobc.in/im/drop/cc/mb/7qts-0 Jun 23 04:19:14 LoneStar99: looks good Jun 23 04:20:46 thanks, gonna release the app tomara, but removed some features until next release Jun 23 04:23:01 ah Jun 23 04:23:04 how much Jun 23 04:24:05 not sure... but less than 2 bucks... Jun 23 04:24:29 open source? Jun 23 04:24:50 what you see in the browser is not an image, but raw data.... Jun 23 04:25:46 closed for now, it took me long hours to get all working, the most important feature will come out in 1.0.1, needs further testing... Jun 23 04:27:04 what is drawn on a mobile device appears in any browser Jun 23 04:29:49 awesome! Jun 23 04:31:49 thanks Jun 23 04:42:59 http://goaruna.com/r/OOfMFue2oxZ2eA Jun 23 04:43:48 LoneStar99: nice app Jun 23 04:44:32 rwhitby: thanks, still working on the UI, Jun 23 04:47:48 Hey guys, I know it was an hour and a half ago, but just wanted to clarify for anyone who is still wondering Jun 23 04:47:56 Enyo is available now in webOS 3.0, for the tablet Jun 23 04:48:02 It will be coming to phones, but not yet Jun 23 04:48:17 I'm not sure on the licensing, exactly, but I think packaging it with your application right now is a no-no Jun 23 04:48:19 k thanks singmajesty Jun 23 04:48:24 There are plans to bring Enyo to phones Jun 23 04:48:41 We need to investigate how far back we can do it, but we'd love to support webOS 1.x and 2.x Jun 23 04:48:50 Some of the key factors are how it interacts with, say, core apps Jun 23 04:49:00 ...as the core apps in webOS 1.x are obviously different than those in 3.x Jun 23 04:49:29 thanks singmajesty Jun 23 04:49:32 Nevertheless, we recognize that supporting Enyo across as many devices as possible is a good way to unify the platform Jun 23 04:49:58 Which version of webOS you have is slightly irrelevant if we all can use the same apps, and write them the same way Jun 23 04:50:12 but, fatpacking is officially supported now? Jun 23 04:50:15 Yes Jun 23 04:50:22 That doesn't include the framework in the IPK Jun 23 04:50:52 We should have our scanner worked out, now, so that it can effectively scan applications with Mojo and Enyo, and allow the minimum required version to be lower than 3.0, even though Enyo code is present Jun 23 04:51:19 I'm sure there might be ways to do fat packaging a little more elegantly than the example I posted. For example, a folder for Enyo and a folder for Mojo Jun 23 04:51:34 Mojo is a bit picky on its paths, but with experimentation I think a lot of its content could be moved Jun 23 04:51:35 that's what I was thinking Jun 23 04:51:53 In my testing, using a redirect to a new index HTML seemed the most effective approach, at least for Mojo Jun 23 04:52:28 Theoretically, you could link enyo.js, check if Enyo is present, and if so, load your Enyo app, or if it isn't present, redirect to the mojo HTML Jun 23 04:52:28 singmajesty: is the touchpad as smooth as the iPad? in your non-bias opinion? :) Jun 23 04:52:52 I've had limited experience with the iPad, but in my experience, I have been impressed with the TouchPad Jun 23 04:53:12 Occasionally it doesn't run quite as smooth as butter, occasionally, but every update makes that better Jun 23 04:53:20 usually those are scenarios where many things are going on Jun 23 04:53:34 Its hard to imagine using a tablet without multitasking Jun 23 04:53:40 yeah Jun 23 04:53:51 I'm also proud of the amount of memory and performance it can push into apps Jun 23 04:54:01 and with OC'ing on the horizon... :) Jun 23 04:54:02 nice Jun 23 04:54:08 The graphics drivers are pretty new, but each release from Qualcomm seems to make them better Jun 23 04:54:30 For example, I heard today that the latest updates to the core OS mean that hybrid apps can render at 60FPS+ Jun 23 04:54:33 I'm happy about the "no carrier approval for updates" :D Jun 23 04:55:07 Which means that doing a PDK game in a hybrid might be a reality in the future, where before (anyone with hybrid experience can attest) there was too large of an overhead Jun 23 04:55:11 Me too! Jun 23 04:55:18 well for a wifi only tablet, I'd hope so Jun 23 04:55:19 :) Jun 23 04:55:22 It's also fun to see it on sale at Walmart, Costco, Best Buy... Jun 23 04:56:00 I heard that a lot of the 30% developers don't take home from their app sales go to carriers Jun 23 04:56:06 Sam's Club Jun 23 04:56:08 Wireless carriers are a hard reality Jun 23 04:56:23 ...but I'm excited about what the future can hold without them, at least for the time being Jun 23 04:56:29 ;) Jun 23 04:56:36 yeah Jun 23 05:04:49 dkirker: ping Jun 23 05:04:56 hi Jun 23 05:16:11 more than likely will have to use some C++ code in the future for Webos Jun 23 05:17:20 And the music begins... my mom playing Dr. Mario Jun 23 05:18:12 lol Jun 23 05:19:51 nice Jun 23 05:21:06 yeah, I showed it to her last week and she's now hooked... she even stopped playing Tetris, Columns and Puzzle Bobble ;) Jun 23 05:21:31 haha Jun 23 05:29:20 wow awesome Jun 23 05:29:37 what? Jun 23 05:32:14 night everybody Jun 23 05:33:09 laters PatrickC Jun 23 05:39:08 singmajesty: what's your wIRC issue? Jun 23 06:08:21 just rev'ed appinfo version to 1.0.0 - here we go Jun 23 06:10:03 better use that Mojo.appInfo.version Jun 23 06:10:52 my version is like 0.43 is there some magic to the version numbers. talking enyo. Jun 23 06:11:11 enyo.fetchAppInfo().version Jun 23 06:11:30 just a mental commitment that I guess this is the 1.0.0 version. Jun 23 06:11:35 oh we're talking enyo Jun 23 06:11:39 likely a bad idea to do that at 2am but hey, here goes Jun 23 06:15:15 apparently the webos email app does not support
Jun 23 06:15:18 anyone have a work around? Jun 23 06:31:26 scratch that it does Jun 23 06:31:36 what the heck it didn't like 10 minutes ago. it just suddenly started working Jun 23 06:49:49 morning Jun 23 06:49:56 Good morning swisstomcat Jun 23 06:50:01 hey hotdp Jun 23 06:51:52 best thing to eat at 2:49 AM: hot pockets Jun 23 06:52:58 hot pockets? Jun 23 06:53:12 hot d pockets? Jun 23 06:53:20 submitted! Jun 23 06:53:30 rwatkins: yay Jun 23 06:53:49 woot woot, please let it make it thru and make it into the catalog before the 1st Jun 23 06:54:00 adora said submit a week before the touchpad so you should be fine Jun 23 06:54:14 rwatkins: what kind of app is it? Jun 23 06:54:31 Paper Mache - Instapaper for TouchPad Jun 23 06:54:56 save article and read them later, offline in a text optimized view Jun 23 06:55:12 somewhat like Read It Later or Evernote kinda thing. Jun 23 06:55:28 i see Jun 23 06:55:29 paid app? Jun 23 06:55:32 free Jun 23 06:55:44 nice, can't wait to test it :) Jun 23 06:55:49 Instapaper API is paid - $1/month, but that goes to Marco, not me. Jun 23 06:57:07 swisstomcat: cool :) you do app review @ hp? Jun 23 06:57:18 not officially Jun 23 06:57:26 but i like to see what cool apps are coming out Jun 23 06:57:33 webos world will review it for you if you want Jun 23 06:57:36 cool, any feedback more than welcome Jun 23 06:57:40 sure Jun 23 06:57:52 swisstomcat, is it true you are jon rubinstein? Jun 23 06:57:52 Lisa and Ben have already poked at it a lil. Jun 23 06:58:10 uncola: yes, but don't tell anyone :D Jun 23 06:59:01 Jake_M: you mean a review once its up in the catalog and the TP is out? Jun 23 06:59:29 So now time to .. I guess go find and fix those bugs, but atleast got a first rev in the review queue. Jun 23 06:59:33 swisstomcat!! Jun 23 06:59:46 i don't know why the NDA is still up like 1 week from touchpad release but i mean i can do it now if you know what i mean Jun 23 07:00:14 Jake_M: your in the 3.0 program? Jun 23 07:00:22 if i'm allowed to say it, sure Jun 23 07:00:26 heh Jun 23 07:00:52 i mean obviously i won't post screenshots before the release date but i could obviously have the review out on touchpad shipping day Jun 23 07:00:58 shoot me an email - ryan@ryanwatkins.net, luv to have any feedback - might be able to fix things in the next few days for a quick release right after launch. Jun 23 07:01:01 obviously Jun 23 07:01:02 lol Jun 23 07:04:08 hey devs, make sure you check out www.villo.net and see if villo is right for you. especially with this touchpad release coming soon i really want people to extend their reach(especially with the chat function) Jun 23 07:07:12 "see if villo is right for you?" does it have a long list of unpleasant side effects? Jun 23 07:07:23 lol Jun 23 07:07:32 no :) Jun 23 07:07:52 works with enyo and mojo Jun 23 07:08:00 http://villo.net/features.html Jun 23 07:08:06 if you don't need those, its not right for you ;D Jun 23 07:08:32 i feel like a LOT of people could use at least User Profiles though Jun 23 07:08:58 for example, rwatkins could use user profiles and people could share instapapers and share articles they've saved onto their villo profile Jun 23 07:16:59 is it easier to develop for webos than for the blackberry playbook? Jun 23 07:17:19 the playbook has adobe air and uh.. I think that's it.. until the native sdk comes out Jun 23 07:17:58 well webOS has Ares, and webOS is basically like making a webOS with custom javascript code Jun 23 07:18:03 shit Jun 23 07:18:06 making a website Jun 23 07:18:07 lol Jun 23 07:18:17 so it's like.. html5 and javascript? Jun 23 07:19:49 https://developer.palm.com/content/resources/develop/new_to_programming.html Jun 23 07:20:08 "At its most basic, programming for the HP webOS platform requires an understanding of HTML and JavaScript, two primary web components. HTML is used to set up the "scenes" that you will see on the screen (which you can think of as being analogous to a web page), and JavaScript is used to control the behavior of those scenes. " Jun 23 07:20:48 yes, it's very easy Jun 23 07:21:20 does webos developing support the tag? Jun 23 07:21:37 because it's not html without Jun 23 07:21:43 :| Jun 23 07:21:45 um Jun 23 07:22:26 just do h4 {text-decoration:blink} Jun 23 07:22:31 unless you're sarcastic Jun 23 07:23:32 sarcastic? ME? noooooo Jun 23 07:42:22 uploaded my newest app! Jun 23 07:42:32 last mojo app =( Jun 23 07:45:34 what is it Jun 23 07:50:01 a preview -->http://bobc.in/im/drop/cc/mb/4vmw-0 Jun 23 07:50:18 sweet preview Jun 23 07:52:42 thanks, pretty much what you draw on the mobile device will be viewable on any browser, left some key features out until next release Jun 23 07:53:18 wait so Jun 23 07:53:24 it did not work in ff Jun 23 07:53:33 it works in opera and IE Jun 23 07:53:44 you draw and it exports as a Jun 23 07:54:19 sometimes images do not appear right on FF Jun 23 07:54:31 firefox suckssss Jun 23 07:54:36 works well on app browser, opera, safari Jun 23 07:57:15 Jake_M: yeah all canvas Jun 23 07:57:37 sweet. my college roommate hates HTML but he's been getting into canvas recently and he has a Pre so i'm gonna tell him about it Jun 23 07:57:46 whats it gonna be called? drop? Jun 23 07:58:26 yeah Jun 23 07:58:38 word Jun 23 08:19:31 alright folks GN, see yall in a few hours Jun 23 11:12:42 how do I send notifications from models to assistants when the card is not focussed/maximised? Jun 23 11:13:28 i.e. after a DB has been loaded into a model Jun 23 11:26:40 hrmmm Jun 23 11:26:50 I'm initializing the Model in my AppAssistant Jun 23 11:26:56 is that even the right way? Jun 23 11:26:57 :-D Jun 23 12:57:49 Will WebOS 3.0 ever be available for Pre2? Jun 23 13:08:24 it seems likely Jun 23 13:08:38 just because it's more powerful than the veer and the veer should get it Jun 23 13:08:41 i think it says so under productinfo Jun 23 13:09:41 scoinvPre, webos 3.0 is for tablets Jun 23 13:10:07 branch 3.x tablets branch 2.x smartphones Jun 23 13:10:51 aGaTHos, that makes sense. Sort of like what Android is doing. Jun 23 13:11:00 HP has done nothing but copying apples versionning convention Jun 23 13:11:02 nah, that's not the case at all Jun 23 13:11:06 yes android does the same Jun 23 13:11:28 aGatHos, so 2.2 or 2.3 would be the next version. Jun 23 13:11:57 the veer has 2.2 Jun 23 13:12:02 I supose Jun 23 13:12:13 which adds touch to share Jun 23 13:12:52 sorry, 2.1.2 Jun 23 13:12:53 I'm frustrated with Verizon & Pre2. Jun 23 13:13:03 It still has 2.0. Jun 23 13:13:10 Verizon is a bitch about upgrades I know Jun 23 13:17:35 took something like 6 months to offer 1.4.5 on the pre plus Jun 23 13:19:45 free smartphones! free SO for smartphones! (please dont mention me android ¬¬) Jun 23 13:46:54 uh oh, new dev pricing model means I'm not gonna be able to get something much better than retail, probably Jun 23 13:46:57 http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20110623005373/en/HP-Announces-webOS-Pivot-HP-TouchPad Jun 23 13:53:50 incredible, how low HP value their name Jun 23 13:54:13 "HP webOS on HP Touchpad, with a HP Case and the HP TouchStone now comes with HP webOS Pivot" Jun 23 13:54:33 what do you mean? it's just branding Jun 23 13:54:44 it's over-branding Jun 23 13:54:48 Apple sells an "Apple remote" Jun 23 13:55:26 but not an Apple iPad with Apple Facetime and Appli iOS and an Apple Retinadisplay Jun 23 13:55:54 oh and soon with Apple iCloud Jun 23 13:56:08 no, it's just an iPad with Facetime, iOS and iCloud Jun 23 13:56:19 true, but Facetime, iOS, and iCloud are all Apple brands too, and they're equivalent to "Apple" Jun 23 13:56:19 granted they're going over the top with the iPrefix Jun 23 13:56:36 so is TouchPad, TouchStone and webOS Jun 23 13:56:39 Apple just makes their product names their brand, whereas HP's brand is HP Jun 23 13:56:41 why not call it like that Jun 23 13:57:08 yes, and that sounds stupid most of the time Jun 23 13:58:48 similarily, Apple went from the "Apple key" to the "Command key" because it was cluttering their UI with Apples Jun 23 13:58:51 quite frankly, don't really care about what the company that makes the product calls it, I'll call it whatever I want Jun 23 13:58:59 I don't* Jun 23 13:59:00 giving the Apple logo a cheap connotation Jun 23 14:00:08 that's not really a good argument Jun 23 14:01:28 I don't see how a company brands their device as overly important, but I may be an outlier Jun 23 14:02:09 same with the rubberbands they were handing out at the webOS Connect events Jun 23 14:02:17 there was the HP logo and it said "HP webOS" Jun 23 14:02:26 so basically it said "HP HP webOS" Jun 23 14:03:42 maybe a harsh metaphor but it's like a dog peeing all over the place to mark its territorry Jun 23 14:03:45 :-D Jun 23 14:03:46 I have noticed they call it "HP webOS", and not webOS Jun 23 14:04:43 well, but what it means is their brand can go places, if for example, they start licensing webOS, it becomes "Samsung whatever with HP webOS" Jun 23 14:04:59 whereas something like iOS will only ever be apple Jun 23 14:05:30 I didn't say "just call it webOS" but "don't call it HP HP webOS" Jun 23 14:05:45 it's just so... random Jun 23 14:12:28 Apple also had a small problem in that it had *two* "apple keys" Jun 23 14:13:29 that's ok as long as they do the same thing... Jun 23 14:13:42 they didn't Jun 23 14:13:56 they do now, originally they didn't Jun 23 14:13:57 wow Jun 23 14:14:11 * Loudergood just got his first mac, and already disassembled it Jun 23 14:15:55 the way they put those minis together is interesting Jun 23 14:27:06 gnah, this drives me crazy Jun 23 14:27:28 how do I reliably tell my stages/scenes that a model (wich has been defined in the appassistant) has been updated? Jun 23 14:27:41 the notification chain seems to only work when the app is in focus Jun 23 14:29:40 morning everybody Jun 23 14:33:01 morning Jun 23 14:33:14 Epyon22: how's dev going? Jun 23 14:34:33 i just woke up but ive been doing this tutorial seems to be pretty good http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/webos/webos-sdk/ Jun 23 14:34:47 yep Jun 23 14:34:51 that's a good tutorial Jun 23 14:35:27 i said yes to the early enyo sdk so im just waitin for that to go through also Jun 23 14:36:29 'early' is pretty soon going to be not early. 1 wk away. Jun 23 14:36:29 good Jun 23 14:37:16 we hope Jun 23 14:37:20 lol yeah i know they might be delaying it on purpose Jun 23 14:39:04 http://m.engadget.com/default/article.do?artUrl=http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/23/appblaster-iphone-accessory-lets-you-kick-ar-alien-butt-bubbleg/&category=classic&icid=eng_latest_art Jun 23 14:39:06 awesome Jun 23 14:39:14 1 week! fsck! I still have to finish my app ;) Jun 23 14:39:26 NuttyBunny: mee too Jun 23 14:39:35 meeeee three Jun 23 14:39:40 and there's no way I'm going to be able to, I don't think Jun 23 14:40:09 same here Jun 23 14:42:33 * rwatkins "finished" last night. Jun 23 14:42:39 Nice to see this working! Jun 23 14:42:59 meaning create and submitted the 1.0.0 version, but that is always just the signal for the bugs to come out. Jun 23 14:43:02 I couldn't use wIRC at all last night :( Jun 23 14:43:54 wow, irc on a veer. wonder if you can even see Patricks url on the screen all at once. Jun 23 14:44:20 Hold on... I'm still scrolling to read your message... Jun 23 14:44:30 haha Jun 23 14:44:40 Got it Jun 23 14:44:51 wIRC should have zoom in-out for Pixi&Veer ;) Jun 23 14:44:55 Don't see the URL. Maybe I need to scroll up Jun 23 14:45:24 No, actually it works really nice, it seems Jun 23 14:45:46 The font size is a little bit small, but its good. I like it Jun 23 14:45:47 singmajesty_veer: what worked, username and pass? Jun 23 14:45:49 rwatkins: yeah, I might as well call mine 1.0.0 and throw it in the wild, I just have to fix a couple of bugs and it'll be set :) Jun 23 14:45:56 WiFi Jun 23 14:46:01 aw :/ Jun 23 14:46:03 singmajesty_veer: you can change the font Jun 23 14:46:19 I still can't connect over HSPA Jun 23 14:46:35 WiFi it can find my hostname, which makes it happy Jun 23 14:46:52 that sounds like a personal problem Jun 23 14:46:53 Wireless it can't, and I couldn't get it to be happy about ident Jun 23 14:46:54 probably at&t mucking it up then :/ Jun 23 14:46:59 Jun 23 14:47:06 we need CAMERA ACCESS!!! Those AR apps are killing us!! Jun 23 14:47:43 I believe camera access is top of the list for new APIs Jun 23 14:48:05 Understandably, people want to do their own video chat services and such on the TouchPad Jun 23 14:48:18 It does have Skype, though, which is cool Jun 23 14:48:22 *yawn* ... camera access has been on the list since ages, as well as mic access Jun 23 14:49:14 You can take pictures now, if the user hits the green button, but I think the real problem is that only the Pre 3 has auto focus Jun 23 14:49:23 alot of the apps that need mic and cam access are ones that people would go to android and ios for Jun 23 14:49:46 I looked into bar codes before, and the pictures seemed like they might have been too blurry Jun 23 14:50:02 I thought we had mic access? Jun 23 14:50:13 singmajesty_veer: Yep, only a handful of qrcodes can be read with the camera Jun 23 14:50:20 no, no official mic access yet Jun 23 14:50:41 I'm talking about streaming video capture, not a single picture Jun 23 14:51:02 yep, me 2, we need real video processing Jun 23 14:51:09 Yeah, aren't there apps like Voices in the official App Catalog, for recording yourself? Jun 23 14:51:35 NuttyBunny: we have official voice recording Jun 23 14:51:42 mmm... true, true Jun 23 14:51:49 2+ apps Jun 23 14:51:49 I just think it might only be on the web side, not the PDK Jun 23 14:52:09 But it does exist :) Jun 23 14:52:21 singmajesty_veer: yep, that's what my mind might be telling me ;) Jun 23 14:52:32 brb Jun 23 14:54:24 morning folks Jun 23 14:54:43 NuttyBunny: have you messed with the camera api? Jun 23 15:00:38 Morning Jun 23 15:01:46 Its fun to use wIRC again on my phone. Pity it doesn't work wirelessly for me yet Jun 23 15:01:56 :( Jun 23 15:02:23 I don't see it in the catalog for TouchPad, but I'll guess I'll wait until I can test the Enyo version Jun 23 15:02:56 I wonder if SSL would make it work? Jun 23 15:04:04 the homebrew ipk i sent you supports ssl Jun 23 15:04:32 Yeah, I'll give that a test and see Jun 23 15:05:03 If it does, we can double check if curl (with openssl) are on the whitelist 95% sure it is now Jun 23 15:05:06 hmmmmm I wonder what the enyo catalog looks like Jun 23 15:05:20 Its nice Jun 23 15:05:27 Pivot is pretty cool Jun 23 15:05:33 good to hear Jun 23 15:05:42 the 2.0 update to the catalog wasn't a good one Jun 23 15:05:56 it made it prettier, but less useful Jun 23 15:06:23 hopefully the 3.0 update will fix taht Jun 23 15:06:27 If you optimize for TouchPad, it does show "for TouchPad" next to the application, and it gets priority when sorting Jun 23 15:06:42 nice Jun 23 15:06:58 I'm hoping the dev pricing has a "at least X amount off if you're part of the dev program" and not completely based on apps in the cataog Jun 23 15:06:59 oh, has spaz hd been approved? Jun 23 15:07:01 catalog* Jun 23 15:07:04 Pivot is a magazine. That's what you get when you open the catalog Jun 23 15:07:18 I see it in the catalog Jun 23 15:07:22 sweet Jun 23 15:07:25 so it must have been Jun 23 15:07:39 funkatron has been travelling, haven't asked Jun 23 15:07:50 hopefully not 2.0 Jun 23 15:08:01 * oil can't add a search panel with it Jun 23 15:08:07 the keyboard doesnt pop when i hit the textbox Jun 23 15:08:17 hmmm? Jun 23 15:08:32 0.2.0* Jun 23 15:08:47 oh, this is spaz hd? Jun 23 15:08:55 yeah Jun 23 15:09:00 search ? Jun 23 15:09:15 let's see Jun 23 15:09:16 like i try to add another slider thing for a search Jun 23 15:09:24 the text box didn't pop the keyboard i couldnt type in it Jun 23 15:09:25 we call em columns Jun 23 15:09:34 whatever :) Jun 23 15:09:39 oil: lemme check it out Jun 23 15:09:51 * oil goes to work Jun 23 15:09:56 we did some stuff to force the keyboard open and closed in teh compose popup, it may have adversely affected the search one Jun 23 15:10:54 I think it would be nice if the columns in Spaz looked like the details panel Jun 23 15:11:38 The first couple options, for settings, add account, add column, could go to the app menu drop down Jun 23 15:11:52 singmajesty_veer: I use wIRC wirelessly all the time with Freenode. Jun 23 15:12:16 SSL? Jun 23 15:12:47 Freenode is happy when I'm on wifi (like now) because it finds the host name Jun 23 15:13:02 singmajesty_veer: wIRC in the app catalog doesn't support SSL Jun 23 15:13:04 I'm curious if SSL helps keep it happy Jun 23 15:13:45 oh, you mean "cellular" when you say "wirelessly" Jun 23 15:13:56 yeah, I connect to freenode over GSM too Jun 23 15:14:39 Does it give the "cannot find hostname" message, do you think? Jun 23 15:14:58 works here too Jun 23 15:15:01 gsm, at&t Jun 23 15:15:05 just got a pre2 :) Jun 23 15:15:21 Seems like that may be based on the setup of the wireless provider, not a function of a cell connection, necessarily Jun 23 15:15:27 is this the best chan for support on migrating from android to webos? Jun 23 15:15:34 Vyker: Do you like it? Jun 23 15:15:41 Yeah, absolutely Jun 23 15:15:43 Vyker: what kind of migration? Jun 23 15:15:45 singmajesty_veer, so far so good :) Jun 23 15:15:59 summatusmentis, well im pretty webbed into the google ecosystem Jun 23 15:16:10 so its going to be a challenge to shift over to webos. Jun 23 15:16:22 Vyker: just add your google account to the Pre2 and you're done Jun 23 15:16:31 Vyker: Syngergy lets you sync your whole google everything Jun 23 15:16:34 You already have your google mail, contacts, calendar, IM plugged in? Jun 23 15:16:38 Synergy* Jun 23 15:16:38 don't store anything other than apps in your palm profile Jun 23 15:17:08 rwhitby, is that set by default? Jun 23 15:17:34 Google account created :) Jun 23 15:17:36 you might have to set a default to point to Google instead of Palm, but that's one setting Jun 23 15:17:38 You can choose, in preferences, the default for say, adding a new calendar item or contact Jun 23 15:17:42 i hope the google profile contact pics come too. Jun 23 15:17:48 they should Jun 23 15:18:18 they do Jun 23 15:18:20 actually, here's a question, do people leave themselves logged in on the google IM on their phone, and on a computer? Jun 23 15:18:29 sure Jun 23 15:18:37 do you get messages both places? Jun 23 15:18:41 mine seems to route to one or the other Jun 23 15:19:34 oil: works here Jun 23 15:20:11 wow, it worked, contact pics arrived :) Jun 23 15:20:21 I get first message on both, then conversation on one only. then after it's been idle for a while, new messages go to both Jun 23 15:20:46 it seems to work quite intuitively for me Jun 23 15:20:46 hrm, interesting Jun 23 15:20:56 maybe I'm missing something Jun 23 15:21:26 so where was this setting to store details on my google account and not on my palm profile? Jun 23 15:21:50 in the contact app Jun 23 15:22:05 it has likely done it automatically Jun 23 15:22:15 will that change it system-wide? or that app specific? Jun 23 15:23:19 that's the only place where contacts can go to the palm profile Jun 23 15:23:26 oh, contacts, yes Jun 23 15:23:34 You can set the default in calendar as well Jun 23 15:23:35 but for calendar, that's in calendar app, and so forth Jun 23 15:23:40 Right Jun 23 15:24:01 Okay, SSL didn't do it, so perhaps I uniquely have trouble on AT&T Jun 23 15:24:03 it's been so long since I've setup a new device Jun 23 15:24:16 TP will likely be my next one Jun 23 15:24:22 ...or maybe its just an issue of ident Jun 23 15:24:47 summatusmentis: Use a doctor, and then you can have that "fresh device feeling" regularly ;) Jun 23 15:24:59 there were discussions here about using OG devices w/ the TP messaging/calling sync stuff, did we ever decide on if they work or not? Jun 23 15:25:12 OG? Jun 23 15:25:19 original gangsta Jun 23 15:25:26 Ah ;) Jun 23 15:25:28 (term I picked up from sugardave) Jun 23 15:25:39 sugardave said it worked on his phone, 1.4.5 Jun 23 15:25:43 neat Jun 23 15:25:54 Not touch-to-share, but the other stuff Jun 23 15:26:02 if it's just a bluetooth headset profile, it should work with any phone Jun 23 15:26:14 singmajesty: I try not to doctor, 2.1 on my OG pre gets really sad when I try to re-sync Synergy profiles Jun 23 15:26:26 right, I wasn't expecting touch-to-share Jun 23 15:26:29 whoa, what did I say? Jun 23 15:26:37 :( these screenshots look awful: https://developer.palm.com/appredirect/?packageid=com.funkatron.app.spaz-hd Jun 23 15:26:38 oh yeah Jun 23 15:26:42 That the TouchPad sync stuff worked Jun 23 15:26:45 but the messaging sharing is something I'm really excited about Jun 23 15:26:53 I can pair the Pre - with the TouchPad and make calls Jun 23 15:26:54 (I text way too frequently) Jun 23 15:27:08 me too! Jun 23 15:27:17 text sync is gonna be sweeeeet Jun 23 15:27:55 Tibfib: Have you guys considered making the "Home", "Mentions", "Messages", etc. windows look like the details panel? Jun 23 15:28:09 yes Jun 23 15:28:10 sugardave: try it with some other non-webOS phone that supports bluetooth headsets Jun 23 15:28:12 I think it would be great if they all looked that way Jun 23 15:28:14 we won't do that Jun 23 15:28:29 rwhitby: that doesn't work...tried my wife's Katana Jun 23 15:28:31 Not really the plan? :) Jun 23 15:28:41 singmajesty: they server different purposes Jun 23 15:28:47 columns are there and are supposed to stay there Jun 23 15:28:54 the detail views are temporary Jun 23 15:29:03 rwhitby: let me rephrase...I was unable to make it work Jun 23 15:29:08 It just... looks... pretty... Jun 23 15:29:45 rwhitby: but I think I was trying to pair it from th TouchPad rather than using the Katana to discover the TouchPad Jun 23 15:34:26 guh, I really need to move the govnah icon away from the clock icon, I see "circle" and just tap it Jun 23 15:37:04 MUAHahahahaha....got a new toy :D Jun 23 15:37:11 it's charging now Jun 23 15:37:54 :O Jun 23 15:38:01 im not sure i like this.... :/ Jun 23 15:38:15 so many features and tools im going to miss out on from my android phone. Jun 23 15:38:34 all my SMS currently is auto backed up to my Gmail account under the label SMS. Jun 23 15:38:57 this was useful, as it stored my SMS in the cloud. so if i was to ever lose my phone, all is well. Jun 23 15:39:07 with the pre2, im back to device storage :/ Jun 23 15:39:29 also, all my chrome to phone tools, i cant imagine webos have alternatives for them Jun 23 15:39:38 I think there are homebrew patches that deal with that very situation Jun 23 15:39:43 I was sending SMS from my chrome browser and sending links from my browser to my phone. Jun 23 15:39:57 SMS backup, I mean Jun 23 15:40:08 sugardave, interesting.... whats it called? Jun 23 15:40:41 Vyker: you want the Neato! app Jun 23 15:40:46 Vyker: no clue, I don't really do a lot of patching Jun 23 15:40:54 oh, there you go Jun 23 15:40:57 rwhitby is the man Jun 23 15:41:03 and in 2.1 I believe SMS messages are stored in the backup in the palm profile Jun 23 15:41:52 * rwhitby bbt - night all Jun 23 15:42:09 night rwhitby, I'll try my wife's phone again when I get a hold of it Jun 23 15:42:24 thanks rwhitby, Jun 23 15:44:37 anyone know the proper way to play a sound on an html5 webkit browser? Jun 23 15:44:55 i was under the impression that mp3 would work, but it does not play the sound Jun 23 15:45:14 sweet, neato is cool Jun 23 15:45:32 audioElement.play(); (I've left out some steps) Jun 23 15:45:40 HattCzech_work: ^^ Jun 23 15:45:53 hmmm Jun 23 15:46:01 Vyker: neato is neat Jun 23 15:46:14 * PatrickC hasn't bought neato yet Jun 23 15:46:47 sugardave: that's what i've tried... it doesn't play Jun 23 15:46:55 :/ Jun 23 15:47:02 i've even checked canPlayType('audio/mpeg') and it says 'maybe' Jun 23 15:47:10 hahaha Jun 23 15:47:11 lol Jun 23 15:47:12 but the play just doesn't do it Jun 23 15:47:16 that's committment, right there Jun 23 15:47:17 works in chrome fine Jun 23 15:47:22 hahaha Jun 23 15:47:58 if you're using [redacted] have you looked at the wrapper?

Jun 23 15:52:56 lol androids arnt allowed here :-P Jun 23 15:53:04 Vyker: palm-install is the easiest was imho Jun 23 15:53:19 Epyon22: YES!! :) Jun 23 15:53:22 PatrickC, this one? Installing Preware using the Official HP/Palm SDK Jun 23 15:53:22 hahaah, i don't use it, just using my co-worker's phone because i can't access the page Jun 23 15:53:26 Vyker: I think rwhitby recommends the .ipk way. But I usually ssh into the phone and run the commands Jun 23 15:53:32 Vyker: yes Jun 23 15:53:46 Vyker: webos quick install is pretty simple now Jun 23 15:54:05 were just going to confuse him Jun 23 15:54:12 Vyker: that is the simplest way that I know of.. SSH'ing into it is a little harder Jun 23 15:54:20 lol, not confused just yet... Jun 23 15:54:21 he gets the same treatment as everyone else! Jun 23 15:54:31 i think i like the webos quick install.

Jun 23 15:54:42 pre2 Jun 23 15:55:00 I wonder how long I need to charge the mini-precious before I can flash it Jun 23 15:55:13 hmm... I don't think webosqi worked for either of my pre2's Jun 23 15:55:23 mini-precious? lol Jun 23 15:55:36 oh, its device specific :/ Jun 23 15:55:48 PatrickC: how long ago? they have fixed alot of the driver issues Jun 23 15:56:05 Epyon22: a while ago Jun 23 15:56:16 but I believe that palm-install is the safest way.. Jun 23 15:56:28 Vyker: are you gonna do web dev? Jun 23 15:57:00 web developer mode? Jun 23 15:57:12 or you mean general web dev? Jun 23 15:57:17 like develop apps?

Jun 23 16:06:47 sdk is the 200mb download? Jun 23 16:07:05 yeah, but you will still need a working Java for it Jun 23 16:07:50 Vyker: yeah, its worth it though Jun 23 16:08:01 java version "1.6.0_14" Jun 23 16:08:01 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_14-b08) Jun 23 16:08:01 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode) Jun 23 16:08:17 word Jun 23 16:09:07 managed to get qi running Jun 23 16:09:16 though also downloading the 200mb, no harm in using both? Jun 23 16:09:27 nope Jun 23 16:09:32 If you are interested in doing any development or probing on your device, the SDK is very useful Jun 23 16:09:41 palm-package, palm-install, palm-launch Jun 23 16:09:44 novaterm Jun 23 16:09:47 palm-log Jun 23 16:09:50 that is an oooold java install Jun 23 16:10:15 oh yeah they are on 1.6.0_23 now arnt they Jun 23 16:10:22 Preware opens the phone up for patches, overclocking, tethering, etc. Jun 23 16:10:26 26 Jun 23 16:10:46 The App Catalog has a lot of applications that work fine without extending past the traditional app sandbox Jun 23 16:10:50 hmm i need to update Jun 23 16:11:02 That's the big difference between the official catalog and homebrew Jun 23 16:11:52 interesting singmajesty Jun 23 16:12:07 being techie at heart, i think i like the idea of more than the basics :P Jun 23 16:12:32 sweet Jun 23 16:12:34 preware installed :) Jun 23 16:12:42 you'll enjoy what preware offers then very satisfying for a techie Jun 23 16:15:21 just downloaded an ipk.... how do you go about installing it? or rather, what methods do you use to get the ipk to the phone from the pc? Jun 23 16:15:58 with wosqi? or with the sdk? Jun 23 16:16:13 wosqi Jun 23 16:17:33 I think there is a + button which will let you select which ipk you would like to install. Jun 23 16:17:49 el morning-o Jun 23 16:18:03 morning chuqui Jun 23 16:18:36 Doesnt WOSQI just let you customize what settings you want and then wipes your device to doctor webOS with all the customizations? Jun 23 16:18:37 Bradmeister1, yes, correct, found it, installed Jun 23 16:19:21 phoque_uni: no it lets you install ipk's and also install any thing from the feeds from the pc Jun 23 16:19:30 ah I see Jun 23 16:21:15 hey chuqui Jun 23 16:22:14 phoque_uni: you are thinking of a meta-doctor? Jun 23 16:22:19 PatrickC: hey Jun 23 16:22:20 no Jun 23 16:22:35 I thought Quickinstall was sort of like meta-doctor Jun 23 16:22:38 ah Jun 23 16:22:45 how's it goin chuqui? Jun 23 16:22:55 maybe because in the first few lines it says "don't start webOSDoctor or it'll wipe your device" Jun 23 16:23:05 that sounded like "we're gonna doctor the device along the road" Jun 23 16:23:17 kinda.. yeah Jun 23 16:23:23 halfhalo has power again? Jun 23 16:23:39 not bad. just going through email (as usual) Jun 23 16:23:47 lol Jun 23 16:25:01 Vyker: you can let preware be the default handler for .ipk mime types, and then just email them to yourself Jun 23 16:25:08 tap link, done Jun 23 16:25:34 i think i set it so on install, not sure where id go if i wanted to change it later though Jun 23 16:25:57 somewhere in Preware preferences (swipe down about the upper-left corner app menu) Jun 23 16:26:16 or tap the app name whichever Jun 23 16:31:19 how hard would it be to make a third party email client? Jun 23 16:32:30 id make it but I have too many apps on my plate already haha Jun 23 16:39:20 free TouchPad case with pre-order from Costco: http://www.costco.com/Common/Search.aspx?whse=BC&topnav=&search=Touchpad0622&N=0&Ntt=Touchpad0622&ec=1&cm_mmc=FlashQuad-_-Homepage-_-2-_-MarketingItem Jun 23 16:39:30 ooops Jun 23 16:39:49 should have bit.ly'd that Jun 23 16:39:53 oh well, I'm lazy Jun 23 16:40:33 Damn, everybody is selling TouchPads.

Jun 23 16:58:36 all i know ff5 has a faster canvas rendering engine, but it is so freaking slow compared with safari (win7) Jun 23 16:58:54 I use chrome because it starts up instantly Jun 23 16:58:58 huh.. Jun 23 16:59:15 whoa.. Jun 23 16:59:22 Safari for PC? Jun 23 16:59:31 how long has this been going on? Jun 23 16:59:39 a while Jun 23 16:59:44 ages Jun 23 16:59:49 since iTunes 9, at least?

Jun 23 17:00:54 cos the next question would be "where does it say 15,000 apps..." Jun 23 17:01:37 dohtem: yeah safari and opera rock on canvas where FF5 lags bad Jun 23 17:01:40 maybe the intention was 5000? Jun 23 17:01:49 maybe Jun 23 17:01:51 grr.. I need an email list app for 2.1 ... Jun 23 17:01:57 screwup if it was Bradmeister1 Jun 23 17:02:15 haha Jun 23 17:02:35 got all excited Jun 23 17:02:50 15000 almost sounds like overkill for launch. Jun 23 17:03:05 yeah i am assuming 5,000 or less Jun 23 17:03:28 yeah Jun 23 17:03:31 i would say probably realistically 1,000+ TP apps at launch Jun 23 17:03:34 tweeted it to adora, chuq and kerris Jun 23 17:03:59 see what they say Jun 23 17:04:07 there are only 6,700+ apps in the total DB as of a few weeks ago Jun 23 17:04:31 lets hope thos app works.. Jun 23 17:05:38 oo Jun 23 17:05:47 Dixons have the 32gb tp Jun 23 17:05:51 delivery for 15/07 Jun 23 17:07:56 did anyone pre order from amazon? Jun 23 17:08:24 nope.. app not 2.1 compatible..

Jun 23 17:12:05 and this next app works.. for 5 address' only.. :/ Jun 23 17:17:38 bbl Jun 23 17:25:05 so app status in the portal of "Published" means .. live? Jun 23 17:27:04 I think so Jun 23 17:27:53 anyone know of a good way to make a email list? Jun 23 17:28:32 rwatkins: I have it on good authority that published === live Jun 23 17:29:16 wow. Palm Dev Relations and App Review team -- You ROCK! Jun 23 17:29:34 submitted -> live less than 12 hrs, and likely alot less since this was the first time I checked. Jun 23 17:29:39 nice Jun 23 17:29:40 PatrickC: what kind of email list are you trying to build? Jun 23 17:30:05 I have a beta team, and don't want to have to type each contact from my phone to email them all Jun 23 17:30:13 there's ~10 of them Jun 23 17:30:58 What's the app?

Jun 23 17:32:37 fairly well impressed with that quick review proceess. I guess i feared because you usually just hear when it fails. Jun 23 17:32:48 haha Jun 23 17:33:08 12 hours? Jun 23 17:33:10 wow Jun 23 17:33:28 less than. submitted after 2am-ish. Jun 23 17:33:42 and this was the first time I checked, so who knows .. coulda been 2 hrs. Jun 23 17:33:48 hmm mine's still "ready for review" Jun 23 17:34:18 i do nothing particularly tricky - no service, or pdk or funky packaging or anything. Jun 23 17:35:01 PatrickC: I got the one earlier, about support Jun 23 17:35:15 singmajesty: good. that's the one Jun 23 17:35:29 funky packaging. We should use that as the term instead of fat packaging Jun 23 17:35:36 lol Jun 23 17:35:41 Use a funky package to get Enyo and Mojo in the same IPK Jun 23 17:35:42 heh Jun 23 17:35:58 OG packaging? Jun 23 17:36:12 Packaging for TouchPads and for gangsters Jun 23 17:36:19 I always thought "fat packaging" was a bit of a misnomer...it's really "fat architecting" Jun 23 17:36:21 (Enyo + Mojo) Jun 23 17:36:36 Enjo Packaging Jun 23 17:36:42 "statistically large" packaging Jun 23 17:37:03 I still like Enjo Packaging Jun 23 17:37:06 I've got an Enjo directory Jun 23 17:37:17 this PatrickC MoEnjoyo Packaging Jun 23 17:37:22 rwatkins: paper mache looks good Jun 23 17:37:25 err....

That's pretty good packing too" Jun 23 17:38:54 haha Jun 23 17:38:54 lol Jun 23 17:39:27 with that kinda turn around time I guess I have room for 7 more releases before launch :) Jun 23 17:39:39 so, they're reporting that HP employees get 20% of TP. Any HP employees wanna buy me one and I'll reimburse them? Jun 23 17:40:17 >_> Jun 23 17:40:54 hp should do a groupbuy Jun 23 17:41:19 or they should hire me Jun 23 17:41:20 >_> Jun 23 17:43:03 I haven't even looked into employee discounts yet, but I think we are limited in the numbers we can purchase Jun 23 17:43:14 oh, that's probably true Jun 23 17:43:35 MSFT did it by a dollar limit for stuff from the company store. Jun 23 17:44:01 Get a job and then buy all your friends copies of Visual Studio for ~$40 Jun 23 17:44:23 till you hit the limit of like $500 or something. Jun 23 17:46:15 otherwise you'd start a side business "HPEmployee" on Ebay Jun 23 17:46:40 policy usually also says you can only gift purchases, not sell them. Jun 23 17:47:05 then you can gift them back $$ Jun 23 17:47:10 * Tibfib kids Jun 23 17:47:23 i'm sure a judge would have an interesting view on that. Jun 23 17:47:33 is there anyway you can request a read receipt on webos? Jun 23 17:47:49 heh Jun 23 17:48:29 PatrickC: what do you mean? Jun 23 17:49:39 The recipient has to click a button in order to read the email, and by clicking the button it sends the original sender an email saying that the email was read.. that make sense? Jun 23 17:50:11 umm, I don't think that's supported Jun 23 17:51:41 man.. I wish I could find a good free *working* group email app... :/, Jun 23 17:51:52 * rwatkins *always* ignores read recipts. Jun 23 17:52:02 keep 'em guessing Jun 23 17:52:06 haha Jun 23 17:52:24 the kinda people that flag em that way are the kinda people that I dont need knowing what I read. Jun 23 17:52:50 I have never used read receipts for email, ever Jun 23 17:54:28 "Complete details about the updated developer programs will be available on the HP webOS Developer Portal beginning July 1." Jun 23 17:54:29 ugh. Jun 23 17:54:34 yeah I always hit ignore Jun 23 17:54:45 oh wait. That might not be for dev discounts Jun 23 17:54:53 updated developer programs? sounds exciting Jun 23 17:55:16 yeah Jun 23 17:55:26 singmajesty: what should we expect? :) Jun 23 17:55:27 $5 says NDA lifted on 3.0SDK Jun 23 17:55:27 quite frankly, it's not your business if I've read your email or not Jun 23 17:55:39 sugardave: exciting, except for those of us who haven't published any apps Jun 23 17:55:48 then it just sounds like we won't get discounts Jun 23 17:56:02 oh, no that does include dev discounts Jun 23 17:56:05 summatusmentis: get to work on that fart app then ;) Jun 23 17:56:11 I've been a dev a long time.. but have two apps in the catalog Jun 23 17:56:23 It's not my fault I don't like making a billion soundboards Jun 23 17:56:26 summatusmentis: whose fault is that? Jun 23 17:56:29 earlier in the article it talks about how the dev discount will be based on how long you've been in the dev program, and how many active apps you've got in the cat Jun 23 17:56:31 why.. why... do people let their support sites go away???? I need support, and can't get it? Jun 23 17:56:43 "apps in catalog" is kinda not great, as 10 crappy apps < one Netflix. Jun 23 17:56:50 seriously Jun 23 17:57:06 I have 6 apps in the catalog Jun 23 17:57:08 sugardave: I would argue the fact that I was a student is at fault Jun 23 17:57:13 4 more in active development Jun 23 17:57:16 priorities, man! Jun 23 17:57:22 so I wonder if "years in developer program" is "signed up on portal" or "full developer accnt" Jun 23 17:57:46 as I signed up EA pre 1.0, but just a month ago as full to publish my app Jun 23 17:57:53 either way, I have over a year, and over 430 posts Jun 23 17:58:03 I signed up EA for 2.- Jun 23 17:58:05 and I'm a senior forum member Jun 23 17:58:05 2.0 Jun 23 17:58:24 I've been around a while Jun 23 17:58:27 good to see something is in place tho Jun 23 17:58:45 I lurk in the forums Jun 23 17:58:46 bbl lunch time Jun 23 17:59:20 oh, I guess I've only been in the dev program for < a year Jun 23 18:01:24 I've been a forum member for 2 years mid july Jun 23 18:01:51 Tibfib: I'm hoping their metric is "all dev program people get X discount, and you can get Y more off if you've got apps published or are active in the forums" Jun 23 18:01:57 yeah Jun 23 18:02:14 Although "active" in the forums is lame Jun 23 18:02:18 what about active in irc? Jun 23 18:02:30 that's an interesting point Jun 23 18:02:35 this type of thing is hard to make everyone happy Jun 23 18:02:41 I've been here since OG pre was announced :) Jun 23 18:02:47 irc? Jun 23 18:02:51 yeah Jun 23 18:02:52 nice Jun 23 18:02:58 Hey you can easily change your company name, right? Jun 23 18:02:58 I don't remember when I first came here Jun 23 18:05:16 around June 23, 2009 for me...I could go check the logs but I'm not going to Jun 23 18:05:48 how do you know that date? Jun 23 18:05:50 just a guess? Jun 23 18:06:07 the anniversary of his reign of terror Jun 23 18:06:15 my irc online timer is at 1627 hours Jun 23 18:06:38 and that got reset a bit ago Jun 23 18:10:25 Tibfib: I based it on my Sprint contract being up Jun 23 18:10:32 ahh Jun 23 18:10:45 I think the Pre - released on June 16? And I got mine about a week later Jun 23 18:10:47 yeah I joined irc after getting a pre Jun 23 18:10:54 june 6th! Jun 23 18:11:00 webos20090606 Jun 23 18:11:03 oh, so maybe 13, then :D Jun 23 18:11:25 it's been 2 years and many obliterated brain cells since then ;) Jun 23 18:11:33 lol Jun 23 18:13:59 is there a reason why i should make my version number 1.0.0.0? i'm currently running 0.9.47.0 and am wondering if that messes things up in the app catalog Jun 23 18:14:28 YOU CRAZY Jun 23 18:14:32 no, I think that's fine Jun 23 18:14:52 you can't have that many numbers, though :/ Jun 23 18:14:54 although I've never seen a third decimal Jun 23 18:15:35 1.0.0 - make a statement, take a stand. say your app is "done". Jun 23 18:15:59 right, only three numbers 0.47.0 we have 4 version digits in my other project (day job) so i got confused Jun 23 18:16:34 ah yeah Jun 23 18:16:34 ok, well i'd like to test it on a real tablet before i call it done :) Jun 23 18:16:50 yaycarwash! although its full of women at 11am on a thursday Jun 23 18:17:20 0.99.99 "The 'we are pretty sure this works' version" Jun 23 18:17:37 I like those versions Jun 23 18:18:44 0.99.9999999949 Jun 23 18:19:18 0.99.3141592654 Jun 23 18:19:28 I should use my last number for pi every time Jun 23 18:22:59 mmm.. pi Jun 23 18:23:21 delicious Jun 23 18:23:22 * halfhalo wants a convertible.... someone make me an app for that Jun 23 18:24:52 wohoo im in the early access program Jun 23 18:25:13 woo! Jun 23 18:25:23 * Epyon22 has a saw that he could use Jun 23 18:25:29 (I think technically yo're not supposed to say that :D ) Jun 23 18:25:36 halfhalo: this app builds you an island and then transforms into a jet and flies you there Jun 23 18:25:48 i thnk im not suposed to tell you about it Jun 23 18:26:30 that may be true, I haven't read the NDA Jun 23 18:26:43 >_> Jun 23 18:27:13 no one ping chuqui Jun 23 18:27:15 oh, wait Jun 23 18:27:19 oops Jun 23 18:27:22 hehe Jun 23 18:27:24 Tibfib: phht. Jun 23 18:27:57 so I'm guessing the touchpad case doesn't work with the touchstone? Jun 23 18:28:06 it's supposed to Jun 23 18:28:11 chuqui saw nothing.. :) Jun 23 18:28:17 brb Jun 23 18:28:23 summatusmentis: oh really? Jun 23 18:28:25 I feel like that was one of the talking points when they demod it Jun 23 18:28:39 hey it looks like you can Jun 23 18:28:51 "Plus, you can charge your HP TouchPad without removing it from the case. Simply connect to the power charger included with your HP TouchPad or place your tablet in the optional HP Touchstone Charging Dock." Jun 23 18:29:03 awesome Jun 23 18:29:08 sweet Jun 23 18:29:17 although, that could be a twisted way to get around saying it doesn't work Jun 23 18:29:31 pre3 touchstone is the same as the regular pre one right? Jun 23 18:29:38 iirc yeah Jun 23 18:29:43 you CAN charge it without removing it, but we won't specify whether that is all methods, or just one Jun 23 18:30:05 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34ag4nkSh7Q Jun 23 18:30:29 Tibfib: "Protect your TouchPad with a lightweight case that doubles as a stand for watching videos or typing. Charge the device right Jun 23 18:30:32 in the case.11" Jun 23 18:30:49 where's that? Jun 23 18:30:57 hp.com/touchpad near the bottom Jun 23 18:31:33 I wish there were more images of the case Jun 23 18:31:46 it still doesn't specifically mention using the touchstone with the case Jun 23 18:31:54 I really hope it works Jun 23 18:32:01 I'm pretty sure it was demo'd that way Jun 23 18:32:03 but I have no proof either way Jun 23 18:32:15 i have a few touchstones i picked up for $5 i'm going to try and DIY some docks for the tablet Jun 23 18:32:15 I haven't seen all the videos so maybe Jun 23 18:33:03 "Charge the device right in the case with an AC charger or our Touchstone Charging Dock."

Jun 23 18:47:18 what does "Add foe" on the forums do? Jun 23 18:47:24 PatrickC: sprint had an old plan that got you $30/mo for 500 minutes, ulimited data, unlimited texting Jun 23 18:47:40 then after a while, there was a $10 add-on for "new" smartphones, which is when I got my pre Jun 23 18:48:16 ill have to take the 10$ addon when i updgrade :( Jun 23 18:48:28 same here Jun 23 18:48:31 Epyon22: me too Jun 23 18:48:42 so I'll be paying $50, but that's still better than anything else Jun 23 18:48:49 yeah Jun 23 18:49:08 I like my pre2.. but the evo 3D is just... wow.. Jun 23 18:49:20 bah Jun 23 18:49:27 3d is for tools Jun 23 18:49:37 real men use 1d Jun 23 18:50:16 1.2GHz dual core... Jun 23 18:50:23 http://www.htc.com/us/products/evo3d-sprint Jun 23 18:50:25 halfhalo: must have a string for a phone Jun 23 18:50:39 Epyon22: lol Jun 23 18:50:52 I don't really care about the 3D, the specs are nice, but... android Jun 23 18:50:59 yeah.. Jun 23 18:51:04 I like it for the specs Jun 23 18:51:41 and 2.3 isn't honeycomb is it? Jun 23 18:51:52 someone really needs to figure out how to hijack andorid devices for webos :-) Jun 23 18:52:28 man is really anything people go for nowadays just specs Jun 23 18:52:30 summatusmentis: 2.3 is Gingerbread, Honeycomb isn't for phones Jun 23 18:52:45 Flashpass: Unfortunately... Jun 23 18:52:57 right, that's what I thought Jun 23 18:53:03 CPU clock speed is the new penis size Jun 23 18:53:07 lol Jun 23 18:53:14 haha Jun 23 18:53:19 yeah, what ever happened to a solid experience Jun 23 18:53:25 Flashpass: meh, specs only matter if the experience needs them Jun 23 18:53:28 right, that Jun 23 18:53:31 Flashpass: That's what she said ;) Jun 23 18:53:31 haha Jun 23 18:53:39 lol Jun 23 18:53:57 my 4yo macbook still feels faster than some of the brand new win7 machines Jun 23 18:54:32 i think there is a reason why apple usually doesn't shine much light on specs, seems like the way to go to me Jun 23 18:54:45 yeah Jun 23 18:54:46 its all about how optimized the os is Jun 23 18:54:49 the expensive way to go Jun 23 18:55:13 the androids can battle it out in the spec department Jun 23 18:55:51 quite frankly, if webos no longer became an option, I'd go iOS over android Jun 23 18:55:56 it comes down to specs if your going to compare two things. the speed difference between ios android and webos is intangable Jun 23 18:56:10 summatusmentis: I'd go MeeGo if it had a future Jun 23 18:56:11 summatusmentis: same here Jun 23 18:56:12 *not just the speed difference but the expereice Jun 23 18:56:16 if sprint offered iOS Jun 23 18:56:20 Popple3: which is doesn't :) Jun 23 18:56:28 I know, just saying :P Jun 23 18:56:47 I'd probably try something new, get a Nokia Windows Phone Jun 23 18:57:12 does anyone think that most people will end up under clocking the pre³? Jun 23 18:57:21 no!! Jun 23 18:57:24 they better not Jun 23 18:57:40 Bradmeister1: I used to underclock my Desire when it got under 40% battery Jun 23 18:57:41 for battery life purposes?

Jun 23 19:11:21 Tibfib: you damn well better be :P Jun 23 19:11:24 * Popple3 shakes fist Jun 23 19:11:47 Tibfib: nope. I figured out the whole thing after the first few episodes. they were all high. Jun 23 19:11:48 I'd pay for netflix if it was on teh touchpad... but otherwise, no Jun 23 19:11:56 SPOILER ALERT Jun 23 19:12:09 hm. Jun 23 19:12:19 I wish iTunes would say how big a file was Jun 23 19:12:26 before you purchase Jun 23 19:13:00 if anyone has a minute, I've posted a question in the *cough* forum... and its a stupid one but could do with a point in the right direction :) Jun 23 19:13:23 Tibfib: It does... At least for movies anyway Jun 23 19:13:42 (no TV shows in Irish iTunes) Jun 23 19:13:42 I dont' think it does for tv shows Jun 23 19:14:03 * halfhalo has pink pixi back now Jun 23 19:15:58 hmm, it looks like amazon's "portable device" version is about 200mbs an episode Jun 23 19:16:06 how crappy that looks at touchpad resolution, I don't know Jun 23 19:16:28 portable device = phones, surely? Jun 23 19:16:38 it's 2gb an episode as a pc version Jun 23 19:16:40 Popple3: yeah Jun 23 19:17:07 Tibfib: Solution: Buy on DVD/BD, rip at desire quality :P Jun 23 19:17:16 see, that would take forever Jun 23 19:17:37 Popple3: what program do you recommend for ripping? Jun 23 19:17:40 fine, buy on DVD/BD and torrent rips :P Jun 23 19:17:57 I use Handbrake myself, works perfectly Jun 23 19:18:09 yeah, I use handbrake Jun 23 19:18:12 just takes a while Jun 23 19:18:22 i use... zuuuuuune! Jun 23 19:18:24 I really hope the TouchPad supports mkv files... Does anyone know? Jun 23 19:18:35 Popple3: see the official site Jun 23 19:18:41 it probably has the supported formats Jun 23 19:18:49 Popple3: I really doubt it Jun 23 19:18:56 ALTHOUGH, touchpad has flash Jun 23 19:19:03 but god, mkv is an awesome container Jun 23 19:19:06 I could watch through amazon instant if it isn't blocked Jun 23 19:19:09 dohtem: :( Jun 23 19:19:29 website just lists codecs "MPEG-4, H.263, H.264" Jun 23 19:19:31 I managed to get VLC on my ipad before it was pulled, too bad it wasn't any good Jun 23 19:19:32 not containers Jun 23 19:20:16 I suppose I could remux my mkvs to mp4s... Kinda need to for my Apple TV anyway... Jun 23 19:20:57 I've done some, but dammit it's too long of a process, and they won't all work thanks to different codecs being used in them Jun 23 19:21:36 Popple3: ever use the WD TV HD? Jun 23 19:21:54 No, but I used to have an ASUS O!Play Jun 23 19:22:05 well, me and my bro, then he moved out and took it with him Jun 23 19:22:25 I have XBMC on my Apple TV anyway, but still, would be much nicer if it'd just work easily Jun 23 19:26:02 and if the TouchPad will only playback MP4, then I guess I have little other choice Jun 23 19:29:16 The way I see it is, MP4 will "just work" (unfortunately) Jun 23 19:30:52 hi Jun 23 19:34:22 hrm Jun 23 19:34:43 thinking about to start some node.js or/and backbone.js foo Jun 23 19:41:24 I have an O!Play...never was too happy with it.. Jun 23 19:42:31 never tried the oplay but Im still on my first gen wd tv. I love it Jun 23 19:46:43 Loudergood: It's uPnP support was majorly borked Jun 23 19:47:08 well..I have the air Jun 23 19:47:24 Did they fix uPnP for that? Jun 23 19:47:35 and lets just say streaming HD content and using the remote at the same time just doesn't work Jun 23 19:47:47 you hit play and then you have no more control Jun 23 19:48:05 wow, the original wasn't that bad Jun 23 19:48:05 lol Jun 23 19:49:15 if I plugged in ethernet it worked fine Jun 23 19:49:34 of course if I wanted to place it in a spot I could wire easily I wouldn't have bought an Air Jun 23 19:52:01 heh, that is quite fail Jun 23 19:52:42 I just couldn't connect the damn thing to my uPnP server, had to use Samba shares instead, and manually edit a text file on the firmware to point to it Jun 23 19:53:09 not what I'd call user friendly :P Jun 23 20:07:21 F*** my Pre! it should not take a phone 8+ tries and 5 seconds to register that I hit the button to hang up Jun 23 20:08:40 ... sorry. been on the phone a lot today and it got to me Jun 23 20:10:36 yeah, I don't miss that Jun 23 20:11:09 RagingMind: i agree Jun 23 20:11:14 want to upgrade :( Jun 23 20:12:20 Tibfib: NOW it works here :/ Jun 23 20:12:29 oil: huh? Jun 23 20:12:38 re adding new search thing Jun 23 20:12:42 oh Jun 23 20:12:56 I just wrote it off as a user error Jun 23 20:12:59 ;) Jun 23 20:13:22 not like i dont know what to do Jun 23 20:13:22 haha Jun 23 20:13:33 tap text box, receive keyboard Jun 23 20:13:44 just like the mouse, press button, receive cheese Jun 23 20:14:32 I'm still wondering what special thing HP has to "make it right" for not giving us the upgrade Jun 23 20:14:53 such a great video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHTSxw6zN1E Jun 23 20:17:25 hey tibfib, all the rows in your settings groups seem to be "single" styled? Jun 23 20:17:30 on purpose? Jun 23 20:17:47 oil: we haven't done anything Jun 23 20:17:52 oh Jun 23 20:19:17 * oil just notices the weird little rounded bits between the rows Jun 23 20:36:35 Tibfib: agreed good video just watched it Jun 23 20:36:52 one of my favorite music videos of all time Jun 23 20:37:02 I can't get into ones that are serious Jun 23 20:45:37 Fact: you can go insane tweaking your app's colors Jun 23 20:47:56 wifi tethering on webos already? or you need an app? Jun 23 20:49:51 I think I left my account connected at home :) Jun 23 20:50:07 There, better Jun 23 20:51:30 hahahaha Jun 23 20:51:38 stupid xchat ;) Jun 23 20:51:47 Vyker: You need to install freeTether from Preware Jun 23 20:52:08 (or quick install) Jun 23 20:59:33 Hi Jun 23 21:00:07 Hi Jun 23 21:00:28 Popple3, thanks. Jun 23 21:05:15 so how does the touchstone work then? Jun 23 21:05:28 ive got it plugged into my computer and ive rested the phone onto it... but then what? Jun 23 21:05:33 doesnt show its charging or anything Jun 23 21:05:38 what am i doing wrong? Jun 23 21:05:44 Vyker: it needs to be plugged into the AC adapter Jun 23 21:06:02 MORE POWER Jun 23 21:06:03 the USB port on a PC will not provide enough current to drive it Jun 23 21:06:04 yeah, I noticed the same thing, I was like O.o but then I realised and was :D Jun 23 21:06:44 My TouchPad complained at me when I plugged it into the Pre- charger Jun 23 21:07:12 i see, i see.. thats a shame Jun 23 21:07:22 would have been awesome if it could connect to the pc as well as charge Jun 23 21:07:23 hey ho! Jun 23 21:08:19 you can do straight to phone on usb and it will charge Jun 23 21:08:26 slowly Jun 23 21:09:06 I wonder if you can charge it extra fast with a usb and touchstone going? Jun 23 21:10:00 I wonder if you can charge a Pre2 extra fast with a TP charger Jun 23 21:10:15 but I'm not willing to test to find out :) Jun 23 21:11:18 haeffb: you can Jun 23 21:11:33 sugardave: Hmmmmm... interesting :P Jun 23 21:11:42 haeffb: Yeah, it was said that you could I think Jun 23 21:11:54 and without danger...the hardware regulates the current. Jun 23 21:11:59 indeed Jun 23 21:13:53 Bradmeister1: I don't think a pre2 would try to draw more than 1A Jun 23 21:15:18 I've also heard people hypothesize that you can use the touchstone with certain computers if you short out the data component of a usb cable. Jun 23 21:15:43 hmmm...no vehicle charger listed as accesory Jun 23 21:15:49 not enough power output? Jun 23 21:15:55 Bradmeister1: ah, well, you'd have to cut it on the PC side and short it on the device side to not damage the port Jun 23 21:16:08 and you'd need a port that can supply 1A otherwise you'll fry something Jun 23 21:16:15 PC's are rated for 500ma Jun 23 21:16:24 But I haven't heard of anyone actually trying this. Jun 23 21:17:59 Bradmeister1: I've seen people wire up the 5V connector of a PC's power supply to an extra USB port with data lines shorted, (the port is only ever used for charging USB charger spec devices) that would do the job.. Jun 23 21:19:29 destinal: I am not sure if it would accept more than 1 amp but it may accept exactly one amp. I've never seen the pre charger provide exactly 1 am, generally ~ 25% less. Jun 23 21:20:44 does anyone know if the version 1.1.9 of Palm/HP Mobile Hotspot of the Veer makes some improvements than the Pre 2 version (1.1.4) ? Jun 23 21:21:39 DMeister: I think it lets you do hdmi out... Jun 23 21:21:48 anyone worked out a way to export/import SMS into webos? Jun 23 21:22:05 ok Jun 23 21:22:05 I have thousands of texts on my android, any way to move it over to webos? Jun 23 21:22:19 haha Jun 23 21:22:39 I'm not sure, it seems to function the same. Jun 23 21:23:15 It may enable the use of the veer's 802.11n card. Jun 23 21:24:10 Vyker: I doubt it Jun 23 21:25:12 ah ok... because some of my users told me to not be able to connect as well as usual in 1.1.4 (espacially with iTouch) Jun 23 21:27:57 what generation is the touch? does it have 802.11n?

I'll just have to figure out what to do.. Jun 23 22:55:17 Wouldn't be as bad if I could buy extra audio adapters, to leave on the ends of my headphones or car adapter, but alas. Jun 23 22:55:45 Actually, my commuter car has an aftermarket CD player with no tape and no input Jun 23 22:56:10 So I actually just buy CDs, rip them onto my computer, then end up using the real CDs when I drive Jun 23 22:56:24 haha Jun 23 22:57:03 heh, I'll be investing in a Bluetooth stereo with aux input if I can afford it :P Jun 23 22:57:16 so I actually buy the cds, rip them onto my computer, and listen to the radio when I drive.
