Hello folks,
As those that have been hanging out on #maemo may know, I recently picked up a Bluetooth-enabled bracelet, complete with LCD, button, and vibe motor. It's intended for callerID, but I am hoping to repurpose it to display other alerts, such as, say "new e-mail from Joe", etc. I am in the middle of the crazy time known as exam season, so this isn't a huge rush, but I'm looking for some coders that would be interested in helping with this if I can get it working. I have some coding experience, and I can handle the hack itself, but I don't know GTK/Hildon/Maemo enough to dive right in and write "real" code to interface with the device. I'm not asking anyone to commit to anything, or devote appreciable amounts of time into this, but I just thought I'd post a note in case anyone might be interested.
The bracelet is $40 Canadian (free shipping) from DealExtreme, and details, as they come, can be found at the blog link in my sig. (Oh, and yes, the pictures on the blog stink - I'm going to borrow a better camera and redo them).
