My Shift wishlist

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

Here's my Shift wishlist! Care to add anything anyone?

- A car charger (12V 3A, any pointers anyone?)

- Full WM on Snapvue in 800x480

- 2GB MicroDIMM at a reasonable cost!

- Have a go at upgrading the 1.8" HDD

- Enable the GPS

- Enable phone calls

- Ship CamerAware for shift :D

- Enabled SDHC support for the internal card reader

- HIGHER CAPACITY (but no bigger) BATTERY!

- Find a coat where it fits in the inside pocket :(

Will add more as I think of things :(

Hi Paul,

One of the key things for me (which I feel is of great importance) is for the synch of Vista to Snapvue for calender tasks and emails. Surely some tech head can come up with a software solution?

I synch my HTC cruise perfectly with the vista side then input calender, tasks and contacts by hand into snap vue just so that I don't have to fire up vista.

Apparently Snapvue synchs though a work network (pointless) so why not via an activesync or mirror software straight from a PDA or from an online service like a pseudo network that allows vista synch to 'bounce back' to SnapVue.

Enable WIFI under WM

So you can check weather, mails, surf IE under WM with WIFI connection!

We pull for YOU Guys!

Hi Paul,

You wrote:

"-Enabled SDHC support for the internal card reader"

As far as my Shift is concerned, I can say that the internal card reader does support SDHC (German Retail, amazon.com).

I have an 8gig SDHC Class6 Card. The Device Manager shows the correct size and the transfer rate is +/- 5mb/sec.

Did you get the Version with or without Origami Exp.?

Maybe the guys at HTC decided to upgrade the Hardware a bit :D

Cheers from Germany, Hyrex

I would like a vehicle mount that allows access to the keyboard when needed. There are options out there but they either need me to glue/stick something onto the back of the Shift which would allow for keyboard use but then I have something mounted to the back of the device. I don't like that idea. Otherwise, there is the option of using a "vise" type device that would not allow me to access the keyboard. I will probably go this route if I have to but I do not prefer it.

I talked to ProClip and they were not going to make a holder for this device unless it really takes off. It would cost over $5,000 US to make a device for the Shift and they don't think that there will be enough demand for it at this time. Their office is only a couple miles from mine and I stopped by and talked with them and showed them my device. They took some measurements and weighed it and thought they could definitely do something but it was a matter of ROI.

Any recommendations would be helpful.

Hi!

I think this is what you need (not so sure about the keyboared though, just ask them):

word is gps has been unlocked by the shift project, heard it on irc, wifi im not sure about, but i also heard that sd cant even be found by wm in any way theyve tried so far. Also, they think they know how to make calls, but not 100% or actually done it yet.
