Hi Folks, Time for me to give back a little - let you know my experience with development environments for this puppy. 'buildroot' is a great tool for making...
From Adam's instructions: "To minimize use of the /dev/mtdblock5 flash circuitry, I've used cramfs for the preferences stuff. To modify, just mount, copy over...
Unfortunately, I've been far too busy in over the past few months to do much with my now battle-scarred zipit, but I've kept an eye on this group for updates....
Someone should write a review at Cnet. http://reviews.cnet.com/K_Byte_Zipit_Wireless_Messenger/4505-3127_7- 31324216.html?tag=also I don't have a Zipit yet....
Hey everyone, I've been trying to connect my ZipIt to my university's wireless network for a month now, and it finally dawned on me that once you connect to a...
Hi all, I've been lurking on the group for a while now and finally just got my own ZipIt to play with. Thanks to everyone who has put so much hard work into...
I, like others, want to get the power for the MAX233A chip from inside the zipit, instead of using an external power source. I have seen some messages about...
I have been using a much simpler interface rather than the "correct" max232a method for RS-232 conversion. I use this method with wrt54gs among other products....
... the "correct" ... wrt54gs ... The critical component is not the chip - it is the RS-232 serial port on your PC. Ie. if an 'HC04 circuit works with your...
Hi, You are correct. The critical component IS the chip in the PC. In my many years as a electronic design consultant, there was only ONE case where this did...
... I don't have an answer for your specific question. However, it sounds like the zipit's serial port is similar to the one on the meshcube. Meshcube users...
I have been lurking for awhile on this list, and I don't have a Zipit yet. It seems that the Zipit is missing a neat feature, Bluetooth. I have been ...

You bring up a good point. What is on the groups zipit wish list? Here is what I have heard: 1. mmc interface - Easy way to mount new software, accumulate...
Personally, I'm more into the software side of things (it's harder to break it.......... in principle) ;) I'd like to see some of the original functionality...
Do you have a working utility that will set and read the rtc? Does zipit even have a rtc? Any help to working source or drivers would be appreciated... I am...
... I would add some form of basic power management. Turning off the radio and the screen after some period of time or when the lid is closed would probably be...
I wanted to ping the community to see what our options were as far as MMC expansion. I think a lot of people will agree that we're willing to disable 1 LED on...
On my Zipit, there are two jacks surrounding the audio port. What are these ports for? I haven't heard any discussion about them. Each one looks roughly like...
After months of monitoring the list, I finally bought a zip it. I was able to reflash with BURN3 -> Adam's Firmware, no problems. I have the wavemon utility...

Yahoo seems unwilling to let me download the hi-res versions of the Autopsy photos from the "Photos" section. Any chance someone with hi-res versions could...
I've got my silver Zipit in-hand, and I've done the obligatory linux flash. I'm impressed with the unit, and I'm completely cheesed that the original...
I'm trying to upload the BURN3 firmware, but I'm having a problem with a timeout on the Zipit or the zrs software. I am running Redhat Linux, and I have my...

First, I'd like to express my appreciation to all the folks participating in the Zipit effort. Without the autopsy photos and the helpful comments in this...
