New Zaurus Announced: Sl-c1000

[speculatrix]

the 6000 has a separate one. In fact I have : the internal serial, the sled serial, the ir port and the bluetooth - quite a lot of serial ports :-)

The internal wifi use a little white connector like the one on the C3000 used to hook up the SD slot IIRC (it's been a while since I opened my 6000W)

is the bluetooth on the 6000W a module, and could it be retrofitted if so and we could find the right kind of module - i.e convert a 6000L to W?

It is a module. Retrofitted? It would be much easier to solder a bluetooth chip on a free serial port.

as in if I can find a pinout of the sled connector and a deft solderrer, I might make (especially since I don't use a sled) an ersatz w out of my L?  That is interesting. You wouldn't by any chance have info on the module, the sled connector or where and how the module fits in the w jus laying around, would you?

wonder if CSR would let you have a free sample of this:

adf, even better- next time I open my 6000W I'll have a photo session of the bluetooth module, where it's connected, etc.

If you want to "W" you L, you simply need to locate where ttyS2 is and solder a bluetooth chip. You'll only miss the blue led - but I'm sure it can be soldered it too :-)

is there a spare tty in the 860, or, could I steal the IR port and fit bluetooth? BT would be much more useful and interesting than IR!!!

do dmesg|grep tty after a fresh boot. I think you would have to steal the IR tty or use the one that serves for the tty cable. go do segor.de to get a WML C09 AHR module and use externe.net/temp/simpad-bluetooth.gif for instructions. Thats for a simpad but if you have a 3V power somewhere in your 860 it'll be fine.

that'd be a cool hack !

if someone could point me at pics of internals, I might bring 'em to my neighborhood electronics wizard, and talk mods.  (while it is open, more ram might be nice, and replace the "sledbus" with a cf slot maybe?)  Probably he won't touch it though... and don't solder well enough to it myself.
EDIT: could a moderator maybe move the 6k digression over to 6k hardware? sorry for going so far off topic
