I bought the M92, I need something faster for the CFA exam in June.
Thanks for all the helps guys. I will post pictures once I get my M92 next week. |

Out of curiosity, did Onyx use the QT framework before, or was it only recently when the readers got the more traditional pointer input device? Would QT work on a device without a pointer (like my PB902)? |

Qt works on variety of platforms. At university, I develop Qt application for Symbian phones (both touch and non-touch), for example.

Thanks pkbo, that is interesting information. I used to code Qt applications about 10 years ago or so, and was always impressed with the quality of their code and documentation. It would also be nice to have applications that are easily portable between the Onyx and PocketBook devices. I think the two sets of users have much in common.

The only things holding one back on the M92 afaik are (1) a lack of proper understanding of the update procedure (but some folks seem to know - see the other thread in which I asked about the danger of bricking) (2) the actual kernel source and patches (which I understand the GPL entitles us to get) - in order to be sure the kernel will work... by now (afaik), one can compile and adapt stock freescale SDK kernel modules to add them to the file system. (3) the password security on the update ZIP file (which has been mentioned not to be very strong) Cheers. Update: though it seems to me, that OpenBoox did not touch the kernel or initrd either, but concentrated on everything in the root fs. (which probably is the safest bet, as I currently don't see the need for a different kernel either ) Last edited by kodomo; 03-13-2012 at 11:24 AM. |
