Hello Daniel, Thank-you for the feedback. As you work on the exposing the API, please realize that we need full media and call control. In addition we will want to be able to substitute existing call control. Look at the old TAPI and .WAV support from the PC world, which was sufficient for us to build large scale PBX applications.

Use Cases:

We may want to make a custom dialer, add least cost routing functionality.

* Local Voice Mail
* Local IVR (Interactive Voice Response)

We want access to the media streams during conversations.

* To add background music
* To implement speech recognition
* To implement local conferencing applications

Please realize that many of us want to modify the general purpose smart phone into a specific vertical market solution.

* Modify cell phone into a custom digital display phone. (dss/blf keys, etc...)

Last 2 unrelated wishes:

* Please implement USB Host

* Make it easy to "Unbrick" the phone. IE: Rich documentation, tools for back-up of system and data, restoring/replacing OS, restoring ROMS.

* Please fully document the GSM modem "AT" Command set . Think of the device as a PC with an integrated modem.

The more I think about it, the better it would be to fully document DBUS first before attempting a high level api...

Kind Regards,

Vince
