Hi,everybody
First,Best Wishes to All Winners.
I want to setup up an ADC NotWinner Fund.
The goal of the Fund is to encourage the ADC NotWinner
who has done a great job,or who moved you
very much,and etc.
The gift is Android DotPhone Hardware
Development Board with GSM/GPRS and GPS module.
As a startup,I want to donate some Android Evaluation Board to
the funds from my personal donation.If there are some people
or company will sponsor,
the more Android Evaluation Board will be sent out to the
Android Developers.
the rule will be voting somebody(of course yourself,no problem)
with
a brief reason.If more Development
Board is waiting to send out,then the voted man and vote man all
has the opportunity.maybe we will have another form of gifts besides
dotphone development board in the future.

I think develop android on real hardware is a exciting things,
wish the android dotphone deveopment board will be the best gifts for
our
ADC NotWinner!

how about your comments and suggestions?if there are many people
agree with this fund,I will run it shortlty after now.any feedbacks
will
be appreciated.

Best Regards

Thanks, Braden Napier.
each dotphone is about $600,including mainboard+7"lcd(or 3.5'lcd),
add
international EMS post fee to developers.
the amount is not important.the key point is your kindness.

Thanks and Best Regards

yes,it is an Android Development Evalulation Board System,
,including mainboard+lcd+gsm/gprs+gps+expensive international post
fee.
since the amount of board is very small,every part is a little
expensive.

I thought he meant for us to vote in this thread and when there are 25
votes he will send the board to the winner.

Vote :) but not the 25th :(
PowerGUI allowed to developer to test their apps on a real hardware
environment! The logic is different of a real phone and other company
who wait the good moment to deliver a real phone, with the commercial
package.
I participated to the ADC1 without to be a winner...But I think that
my application has a good concept and I hope launch this concept,
application and server when all will be ok. If I should wait a real
phone to develop and test really the app, I think that it will be too
late...

So PowerGUI +1 :)

yes,you can vote yourself here.
the Android DotPhone Development Board is almost the same
with real phone.everything is ok,including gsm/gprs and gps.
when the valid votes reaches 25,the high votes will be the winner.
I am sure,the dotphone board will > 1. and the next board will
calculated from the first votes except the winner.

What happened to your ZoomMDK?

http://www.anddev.org/there_is_something_in_the_air_a_zoommdk-t1878.html

I thought you could already test Tom Gibara's MoseyCode application
( http://www.tomgibara.com/android/moseycode/ ). If not, then I vote
for Tom (unless he is one of the 4 secret slots). For his application
it would be crucial to test the speed of a real device. This makes
only sense though, if a camera is included in the set-up.

The Zoom doesn't have GPS + there is currently simply NO support/
guides. I nowhere can find the pin-configuration of the Serial-Cable
that is needed :(
The simply post this link, instead of 2 sentenced of describing the
pinouts: http://www.cablestogo.com/product.asp?cat%5fid=908&sku=02882
It's weird!

Can't believe people aren't voting in this. Maybe they are too busy
whinging ;)
All great nominations, in support of Five and Josh I will add that it
is open source with the source code released. This is a streaming
media player with a server component! I think that deserves some sort
of acknowledgement.

I've summarised the votes so far, hopefully that will encourage some
more people to vote.

So many good apps to choose from.
I'm going to go with AndNav b/c plusminus has done so much for the
community he needs to be rewarded. :)

Well honestly I can't even afford to pay the post.. So, sadly and not
really out of kindness I vote for the best calculator.

I can't really choose, but I would say HandyCalc. I ask forgiveness
from MobiMath, CalcDroid, gWhiz, or other great learning/math tool.

That is why I choose HandyCalc.

Well that and I have talked to many math people that have killed
themselves due to not having a life or job in the math world.

Also watching ppl like Una/Uni Bomber do nutty things with such great
math skills. I don't want to see more of that.

Hum... Looks like a bit stupid if i'm voting for myself:
1-no one knows about what i've done...
2-my app (AndroidCM) is a simple contact manager (not finished yet,
since I'm a student with not lot of time except on holidays)...

But whatever, I want to vote for myself and for plusminus's prog if
it's possible...
His app looks great, and has lots of possibilities...

Fixed little typos. Sorry

I thought plusminus already had dev phones for free from someone.
DUO and Slashwars already have Uni and Corp money don't they.

If your trying to help developers I would stick with 1-2
developer projects. Otherwise your just giving money to the big
players yet again. Well I guess it doesn't matter that much I'm just
saying. Not that I could be wrong about the Uni or Corp statement.

I thought that about plusminus too but he said he had no luck getting
it to work.
I don't think Slashwars has funding - just a bunch of friends from
college.
Not sure about DUO funding.

Hey, plusminus send me your dev phone if you can't get it to work. I
will see if I can fix it. Then I send it back to you after I get my 4
games tested on it.

I'd agree with that, but I vote for AndNav for a different reason:
developing a navigation app must be extremely difficult without GPS.

+1 AndNav

I think what he has done
(establish a community for Android developer and keep it running)
itself is worth some award!
