hi joerg, i just want to know, will it have a dc-in jack for charging, as well USB OTG???

@joerg_rw
regarding charging via USB, presumably, we will need new chargers as
socket/plug will be different..
Sorry if I am stating the obvious but I am not familiar with all of these modern technologies.......

So no, you don't need any new charger or whatever, you can use all your N900 accessories, plus some new ones with micro-A plug for easy USB hostmode, plus presumably all the chargers that don't adhere to "Nokia's" fatcharger spec (shorted D+/- pins) since we will probably use a much smarter charging circuit than found in N900.

It's now possible to donate via PayPal!
See: http://neo900.org/donate
We're looking into some possibility to donate via BTC as well (but don't take that as an announcement, it's nothing more than "looking into" yet :P )

Exactly same reason why we use an existing case instead of building our own nicer one.
And in the end you want to have more in Neo900, not less - right?

Would ANY of us here be happy if it was just the same size or smaller and couldn't put stuff in?
Would we be happier If we couldn't shove anything else into the device...
hell...everything we could in it?

ah, i've forgotten to ask this to you, joerg_rw. Are you going to implement dual SIM? What I meant by dual SIM is one SIM slot is for GSM and the other is for CDMA.

We hope for implementig this SIM multiplexing in a way so that a possible future modem firmware upgrade might support it. So far we heard no details from Cinterion/Gemalto regarding this, so we neither know if such firmware upgrade ever will come, nor can we do better than just guessing how we best interface the multiplexer to the modem. We also need to check certification situation which maybe introduces restrictions what can be done to the SIM interface.

We're not really considering to place a second modem module in for "Dual Talk" (DSFA)
Simple bottomline: we would like to get true dual SIM, but for now modem support is missing for that. We might be able to offer electronic SIM swapping (only one of both SIM active at any time. IOW you're not available on two numbers concurrently)

Thanks,
Chris

[2014-06-30 Mon 13:42:25] <Kabouik> Hey there, I received a few days ago a confirmation that my initial 100€ funding was transfered to Neo900 UG for a total amount of 86.80€
[2014-06-30 Mon 13:43:16] <Kabouik> The difference is because of fees, but can someone confirm me that I am still in the list for a Neo900 with that donation, or should I complete again to reach 100€?
[2014-06-30 Mon 13:45:18] <DocScrutinizer05> your donation counts as the original amount
[2014-06-30 Mon 13:45:30] <Kabouik> Perfect, thanks DocScrutinizer05
