Possibly dysfunctional as a cell phone
#22
The PPP was shipped and came to users with an OS and a desktop.  It did not come as a barebones hardware item even though it was stated by one responder that all software is under control of user/developers not hardware/developers.  Clearly some hardware developer did some work in selecting which OS/desktop and installing of the same.  Why weren't some of the booting, power management, and suspension issues tested, assessed, and addressed in the OS/desktop selection process?

Wasn't anything learned from the PP phone or was nothing gained from that exercise and is the PPP a new from scratch project where everything has to be learned all over.  Actually more was working on the PP upon delivery.  The major issue to me on the PP was the 85% max charge but the phone booted from installed memory and even the camera kind of worked.  For the PPP, not so much.

I am willing to learn this development process and help where I can.  I would like to see the Development Plan that was mentioned by one responder.  I assume that each development team must have its own plan, though.  Perhaps updates along that path would help everyone see what is moving ahead and what is ttaking longer.  Updates might be needed from each OS/desktop team and that could get cumbersome.  I wonder also if the different teams are sharing info learned.

I also think there should be a bugzilla type system to better help the developers focus on the key issues that are found rather than the confused mish-mash of, at times conflicting issues, that are randomly brought up in this forum.

As a response to one responder, I have been a unix, linux user since the 60s.  Not in systems development thouigh; strictly in applications development.  Only IT background for me is what is necessary to run my linux system.  If I can help make this work I will put the time in.
