''This is getting big - please organize this at [[Maemo Summit 2008/Exhibit]]. As I see it, if we do it then it is better to have it both in OSiM and Summit for double impact. See also the comments at [[Maemo_Summit_2008/Organization#OSiM]]''.

Anyone want to be in charge on having a mini exhibit -- maybe for the OSiM Maemo booth as well as at the Maemo Summit? Someone can contact, coordinate, and round-up remarkable apps, hacks, and interfaces and help set them up so enthusiasts and guests can see and play with them. The objective here is to show what the Internet Tablet is capable of doing.
 +
 
 +
Here are some ideas: ( cleanup by [[User:brontide|Eric Warnke]] lets concentrate on community items )
 +
 
 +
I would like to see a handful of units out with a selection of [[Task:Remarkable_community_projects#Born_for_Maemo|"Born for Maemo"]] loaded on each as well as a number of non-conflicting [[Task:Remarkable_community_projects#Outstanding_utilities|Outstanding Utilities]].  Below are the items that I believe would be booth and OSiM friendly.  The nice thing about this list is that we can consume any number of units with this same software and rotate what's being demo'ed easily.

* MPlayer / mediaserv / tablet-encode (the entire video playback pipeline) - rm_you volunteer

* Connecting a Hard Drive ([http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/2008/06/nokia-n800-n810-how-to-attach-hdd-aka.html link 1], [http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22187 link 2]) - volunteer [[User:bunanson|bunanson]] 19:50, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
* Running VNC
 +
: Client or server?  I think I would want to load vnc server on many of the units to allow for us to "demo" on a monitor.  [[User:brontide|brontide]] 14:34, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
* A2DP? - Is this ready to be demo'ed at OSiM?
 +
: Shouldn't be a problem with demo'ing either ARM or DSP version, might be worth bringing some 3.5mm speakers to plug into a headset so more than one person can head the output -[[User:lardman|lardman]] 13:36, 28 July 2008 (UTC+1)
 +
 
 +
Nice to show, if we have enough demo units:
 +
 
 +
* Running Android
 +
: I know we can, but is there legal issues here if maemo.org does it? [[User:brontide|brontide]] 23:41, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
::I don't know. Why not asking them? Mike Jennings will come to OSiM, perhaps contacting in advance would a nice gesture. To avoid confusion, it should be clear that this is a move from maemo.org - the Maemo community and nothing Nokia official (this will be clear in the stand, if only by seeing a big maemo.org logo and many tablets with no-Maemo and non-Nokia 3rd party apps inside).--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 18:41, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
::: Sounds good.  I think one unit with Andriod would be great assuming we have enough units, but I would say it's low priority. [[User:brontide|brontide]] 14:34, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

* Running Garnet VM
 +

 +
Ideas that I don't think will work well: ( maybe at the summit )
 +
 
 +
* [http://www.redferret.net/?p=9533 Haptic Technology]
 +
: I think we should keep it to things we will have access to [[User:brontide|brontide]] 23:41, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
* [http://symbianwebblog.wordpress.com/2008/05/08/puppy-robot-controlled-by-nokia-internet-tablet/ Puppy Robot]
 +
:The puppies are getting a bit old... I can ask the developers if you really want them there, though.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 18:41, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
::IMHO, the puppies are very important - robotics is always at the forefront of media attention.  Dont we just get some pics from Mars 2 months ago? I would strongly recommend to have the puppies presented.
 +
::: If we get the coverage for the table ( still WAYYY short on hours ) I will ask, but honestly I'm not expecting Nokia will just hand over the research hardware for a community table.  If we don't get coverage it's a moot point.  [[User:brontide|brontide]] 16:32, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
::: Robots are cools and bring media attention, sure. This was one reason why I convinced the guys to go to GUADEC last year. I'm not sure we want to have media attention one year later about the same, Bora technology in the times of Fremantle.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 19:56, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

* Running Debian, KDE
 +
:While interesting to hackers, I don't know how much of a splash they would make at OSiM.  If we do a summit table then I think it would be great there. [[User:brontide|brontide]] 14:34, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
::If we have enough devices (I'm waiting for the exhibit to be confirmed to make an internal request) then why not. Tablets with full GNOME on Debian and Ubuntu, KDE, XFCE... are proofs of R&D that can be done with open devices. You can't just do this with most of devices fitting in your pocket. They are also proofs of concept for platform improvements and applications that could be brought on top of Maemo on the same hardware.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 20:28, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm more than willing to demonstrate things at both OSiM and the summit if the hardware can be organised (I have an n800 I can bring a long). -- [[User:baloo|baloo]] 19:50, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
 +
 
 +
I have my own laptop and N800 that can be used for the video pipeline demos, but it would be nice to show them on an N810 and not have to use my own hardware for demos if possible. -- [[User:rm_you|Adam Harwell]] 04:39, 26 July 2008 (PST)

If this is to be a reality we have to have at least 24 hours of coverage ( guestimate ) 6hours x2 days x2 people.  Signup below and then we will talk about what is realistic in terms of Demo's/Units.
 +
 
 +
* [[User:brontide|Eric Warnke]] - 2 hours
 +
* [[User:Timsamoff|Tim Samoff]] - 2 hours
 +
* [[User:bunanson|bunanson]] - 4 hours ( Connect HD and WorldTV99 )
 +
* [[User:qole|Alan Bruce]] - whatever you need ;)
 +
* [[User:rm_you|Adam Harwell]] - whatever you need
 +
* [[User:wazd|Andrew Zhilin]] - 4 hours, OMWeather (with Vlad Vasiliev), Personal Software (on behalf of Andrew "Personal" Olmsted)
 +
* '''SIGNUP HERE, WE STILL NEED MANY MORE'''
 +
 
 +

I can help to man 2 dem stations, Connect HD and WorldTV99, side by side for 3 - 6 hrs; and I am also giving sessions on Friday.  I need "hardware" support.  If I am drafted, who is my contact man? ---[[User:bunanson|bunanson]] I think I would request at least two of each, preferably three, N800 and N810, for a total of 4 (or 6) with ALL the accessories, USB cables, AC adapters etc.
 +
: You are a volunteer.  If you are demo-ing these projects what hardware support do you need?  I will try and make one request to Nokia once we have enough coverage to make the booth possible [[User:brontide|brontide]] 02:26, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
