I have a motorola mobile phone with GPRS, USB data suite and camera facility. I was thinking, how it would be nice to get the hardware specification of the mobile to program the camera to work as a webcam :-) Not sure any mobile phone gives that feature. Every time I wanted to dig deep into it, I get busy with some other official work and its long pending. Anybody knows any mobile phone acts as a webcam also? Anybody started working in that line? I'll be glad to know such information. I wish there was someone else also using the same mobile phone and trying to achieve the same goal of mine :-) Arun -----Original Message----- From: kernelnewbies-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kernelnewbies-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, January 21, 2005 11:55 PM To: Claudio Fiorini Cc: kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: usb I like your idea very much. I've thought about the same sort of thing for a few of my gizmos. In my case however... <rant> ...my cellphone provider charges me money for every bit of info I transfer. For example, US$0.25 for each picture transfered, US$0.25 for every text message received or sent, etc. It seems that cell phone providers here in the US are not in the business of providing service; they provide features. For those of us that like to create our own features based on the services we buy, this is pretty annoying. Furthermore, I'd be shocked if Motorola would release the information that you need to do your project considering 1) that most of their phone sales are probably to the "service" providers (i.e., not directly to the consumer), and 2) that the "service" provider would prefer that you transfer your data over their network so they can charge you. </rant> On the other hand, perhaps providers in your country are a bit more open and a bit less monopolistic. Buona fortuna with your reverse-engineering project!
