Einstein development has picked up on GitHub at https://github.com/pguyot/Einstein. Paul Guyot returned to make some fixes and migrate it from Google Code to GitHub, Steven Frank h…

Has there been any progress on Internet capability from the underlying system or system's drivers?

With or without the PRAM battery, actually, it chimes infrequently and only through the speaker panel; but it comes on most of the time - not always.  It's worth noting that my 530…

Thanks for the response.  I didn't fire it up right away but I didn't let it thoroughly dry per se (I really went at it with the hairdryer - very thoroughly - including opening tha…

raoulduke said: I promptly disassembled it, removed the PRAM battery (which was not dead).  There was a little bit of very confined corrosion but in general the board is in f…

That was a slightly inaccurate description.  It would chime, and I could soft reset, but it would shut down within 5 seconds of chime.  The first time it might have actually restar…

I got the second PB 3400c today.  The battery was still in (both, actually).  When plugged in, it'd make the popping (probably speaker) sound and sometimes the screen's charging-li…

Super! Thanks very much for the power information. I will try to get an ATX power unit.

Sounds like you've got this all figured out then. With such a brilliantly deductive and fertile mind as yours it's a wonder you bother asking questions of us ignoramuses at all.

I had already bought it by the time you posted.  Worst case scenario, I wind up with a bigmessowires... (a cha cha cha cha) Honestly Gorgonops, I don't know that much about the st…

Save your $10, it's not going to work. It's not even going to fail in an interesting way. It might be good for a laugh if it could at least partly boot up or something, but it won'…

You can flash other ROMs (in fact, that's not really needed - you can start Linux from an .exe in CE) - but the fact absolutely nothing will work (memory mappings, chips, etc) make…

I guess what I really meant was flashing the ROM to something other than a factory default.  Maybe one can do that.  [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410156] SA-1…

Windows CE isn't multiuser. You always have "root," because there is no concept of it. As for just jumping a ROM: Yeah, no. There's hardware initiliazation, hardware differences, …

So the SA-110, which is ARMv4, seems to have its most 'modern' successor in the SA-1110.  So I think I'm going to get an iPAQ. That presupposes one can actually root it.

Where would I get a $10 phone? I haven't asserted any facts. (That second sentence is a non sequitur in relation to the first.)

Non sequitur. Your facts are uncoordinated.

Perhaps not, but they may be more informative.

Then by all means just take whatever random Android phone you can bum off of eBay for $10 and try dragging-and-dropping a MessagePad ROM image to it. They're all going to work equa…

Honestly, I'm curious to see what happens, even if it costs me an arm.  Not if it costs me an arm and a leg, though.

I think a better question is what do *you* think would happen if one were to stick a Commodore 64 ROM into an Apple II. The answer is essentially the same as what you could reasona…

What would happen if you physically adapted a Commodore ROM for an Apple II board? It seems the digitizer would be a second-order problem. But no, I didn't think it's work out o…
