I don;t know how diffenent capbilities is from the things devinfo.txt
needs. On the n900 the capabilities script seems to provide what is needed
for devinfo.txt so I was lead by that...
I'm not suere how mandatory devinfo.txt is. My carkit did ask for it but
when I returned some data to it it never asked again... It probably will
when I remove my phones configuration from the carkit.
I never checked the specs again for it as it all seems to work fine with
the code as it is now. It also works for other n900 owners so i did not
bother any more.
I think the code seems to be in a reasonable state to be usefull now so
that is why I released it here. There is probably lots of extra work to be
done to be fully specs complient. But by releasing it other people can jump
in and improve...
Thanks,
-Marcel
