Linux PDA From China 192

Posted by Hemos from the marching-to-the-beat-of-freedom dept.
hama writes "There is a new Linux PDA from China from a Beijing Firm Golden Global View who has been in the PDA/Digital Dictionary Market in China/Hong Kong/Taiwan for some time. The model is WalkPad GP1288 with a SRP of RMB1288 in China. Use the fish if you cannot read Chinese." My favorite fishism in here is the "The whole world is in sole possession of the Chinese Linux operating system, steadily beats a drum to announce the start of a watch the freedom."

    Let's hope it doesn't flounder.

      Finally! World domination! ;-)

  • Most of the people using the PDA's won't even have a clue what Linux is, or how it came about. The only thing my Boss cares about on his PDA is if it can sync with his email. Let's face the facts, the only reason the companies would even try to leverage Linux over Palm is completely due to licensing costs. I feel PalmOS is a Superior OS for PDA's, proven thus far, but I can't speak for much as I have only compared it to WinCE.

    Now now, remember when you laugh at a person for not getting your native tounge just right, its because they bothered to learn *your* lanaguage. Most Americans dont speak more than English, so it's not fair to make fun of this Mr. Fish. To Mr. Fish, we're sorry!

      uhh...that was made by the www.altavista.com translator, not a real person. Its hard as hell to program a translator to get all forms of grammer from launguage to language right.
      • I wonder if a program could spell grammar correctly... in any launguage.
      • Actually, it doesn't appear to be the grammar. It's more a matter of vocabulary. Specifically, words that look alike but mean different things. Quality translation programs, the ones that help automate translations by professionals, give choices for these words for the translator to choose from and don't translate them automatically.

        My favorite is: "the abundant electric power at will supplements." Sounds like free energy!

        It's mysterious where the "beat a drum" comes from. I thought it's somebody making fun. But then I tried just this sentence and Mr. Fish actually said so.
    • OK, my Chinese is very limited but it looks like it's trying to say:

        Actually the joke was about the ignorance that most people have about chinese keyboards. Very few non-asians have any idea what they're like. That's why my comment was funny. Chinese using 10,000 key keyboard isn't the joke, the joke is people not knowing any better.

        The clue that I was being sarcastic was here: "the 10,000 button Chinese keyboard won't ship until next year.

        It's kind of like in the South Park Movie when the Americans were laughing at the Canadians about saying 'aboot' instead of about. That scene really wasn't making fun of the Canadians, but the American's silly reaction to a different pronounciation of a word. It was rather amusing watching a Canadian friend of mine get all upset about it because he didn't pay attention to what was really happening. He thought South Park was anti-Canadian.

        You kind of remind me of that guy. Pity, my sarcastic comment was expressing your view about people's ignorance of asian culture. I kinda thought you of all people would find it funny.
        • Your friend is probably unique in that respect. South Park the Movie was obviously pointing out what moronic idiots Americans are.

          That Americans ACTUALLY think that most Canadians say "aboot" is adequate proof.

      Why in the world would you block *that*!? (unless it is because you can enter a URL for a non-english porn site to get past the filter?)
      • Quite simple. If you're behind a firewall, just find a site you want to view (even in english) and set the fish to translate from some foreign language to english. Since babelfish will leave words alone it doesn't recognize, as long as your english page doesn't have words in the previously mentioned foreign language, your page will be left alone.

          I ran into another silly case where they have lists.samba.org blocked. When I asked about this the reply was "it is an internet newsgroup, we block those".

          So, mailing list archives are blocked as a group because newsgroups are 99% non-work-related in someone's view.

    • OK, inquiring minds want to know: what's this Chinese text that you translate as "ROM" and BabelFish translates as "Dodge Saves"?!
      • Actually, "ROM" is not really correct, either. It should be translated into "Flash Memory". "Flash" --> "Dodge" and "Memory" --> "Save". Well you get the point.
      • Literally, the original term is "flash storage". Since a Chinese character can be a noun or a verb depending on context (just like English), "storage" can be interpreted as "(to) store" or "(to) save". The character for "flash", in modern colloquial use, can also stand for the action "to dodge" (since dodging can be described as moving in a flash...). Hence the mistranslation "dodge save".
        • Thanks for the explanation.
          Since a Chinese character can be a noun or a verb depending on context (just like English)...
          Well, yes, that's the way we use English. But there are a zillion prescriptive grammar books that insist that nouns are nouns and verbs are verbs, and never the twain shall meet. This is linguistic nonsense (hello! English and Latin do not have the same grammar!) but that doesn't prevent Grammar Fundamentalists from flamming you whenever you noun a verb. Say, "A Good Read" on certain newsgroups, and you'll see what I mean.
          • There's a pithy comment about modern English, embraced within inverted commas forthwith:

            "We love to verb nouns."
          • Uh, rave.

            In fact, there is a perfectly grammatical means of nouning a verb, its called a gerund: The umpteenth running of the Great Deerwood Woodtick Races.

            And, um, flaming.

            The Flaming Grammarians are all wet here. Modern grammar recognizes usage as paramount and grammar neither more nor less normative than spelling or the convention of the signifier itself. Which is not to say that some verbification should not be challenged: *deplane* is just plain misguided. Its construction follows no known rule but that of laziness.

            The very idea of a *prescriptive* grammar outside the domain of synthetic (as opposed to natural, unfortunate distinction that) language is laughable.

          • Prescriptive grammarians tend to slavishly expect English to follow Latin. In reality, English is closer to Chinese than Latin in structure (though not, of course, in vocabulary.) 'Verbing' is a common zero-transform in Germanic languages generally, and that tendency is most pronounced in English.

              Reproduced without permisssion!!!!

              Well, that might have been true when English was a dialect of German. But after a few centuries of people trying to use English as if it were a corrupt form of Latin, we've got all kinds of inflectional structures we're basically stuck with. I still hesitate to split an infinitive!

                Actually, despite all of those years of prescription against it, the language has nonetheless been shedding inflectional structures at record pace. ESI (English sin infleción) is actually understandable in most cases, though it sounds funny. Try that even in Chaucers day and it would have been total gibberish.

    • So I'm curious: what would be the characters for "Linux"? I checked out the web site for RedFlag Linux, but as far as I can tell, all references to "Linux" are in latin letters. Although now I know how "Red Flag" looks like in GB. :)

  • Shouldn't that be the WokPad?
  • With linux for the iPaQ do we really need to discuss a platform with less memory, slower processor, less polished Linux port and (wait for it, wait for it) documentation in English (assuming most /.ers don't read chinese). Just buy the iPaQ and be happy.
    • Just buy the iPaQ and be happy.

      One argument against this would be to avoid the MicroSoft tax as the iPaq comes with PocketPC.

    • Better yet, buy a zaurus and avoid the Microsoft tax.
      • If that price analysis above is correct, you can buy three of these devices at $160 for the price of a single Zaurus.

        I still think there's a niche for low-end Linux PDAs. Of course, Softfield [softfield.com] is selling their improved 16M, battery-charging Agenda VR3 hardware for ~$130 as well...

    • iPAQ uses a StrongARM chip, which is an Intel product. It's such a buggy chip, I can't understand its success--- other than Intel's marketing muscle. Oh, and Microsoft's clout, through the PocketPC OS--- which has, conveniently, "focused" itself on the StrongARM, and left other, more appropriate chips unsupported.

      And yes, I've run Linux and PocketPC/CE on StrongARM. On an iPAQ, and on a couple of other StrongARM-based devices. I've written Linux framebuffer and USB drivers for StrongARM. I know what I'm talking about here.

      MIPS chips, like those found in the Agenda and this Chinese PDA (and the now discontinued Vadem Clio and others), are more cleanly designed, have less errata, and are much cheaper. Buying something that contains one of these units tells the market that you want them to select the right chip for the job, not just pick whatever Microsoft and Intel have decided to give you.

      I won't buy an iPAQ, ever.

      If you do, you're just giving Microsoft and Intel another sale of PocketPC+StrongARM, even if you never boot the iPAQ to anything but Linux. If you're happy with that, then you may as well run XP on your PC, too.

      And don't get me started on XScale, Intel's "replacement" for the StrongARM that does even less, yet costs more. Even Microsoft admits that XScale is a real disappointment. But that's sort of like the pot calling the kettle black, isn't it? :^)

It *is* charged from its USB cable. However, it does not seem to have any external expansion capability, i.e. more memory via SD or CF.

    I mean, I still don't care about the different Chinese input methods. They are either impossible to learn in a few minutes, or they use pinyin or something like that. That has made me a read-only person as far as Chinese is concerned. If the thing has a good hand-writing recognition program, we can always expand that to a hand-writing device for an ordinary PC.

    Anyhow.
