| wxl | nhaines: i forgot. did you say you were planning on coming to lfnw or oscon? | 21:25 |
| nhaines | wxl: I was thinking of coming to OSCON, but I'm not sure if my schedule will work out. I'll know after the end of the month. | 21:38 |
| wxl | nhaines: alright cool, well keep me in the loop. they haven't opened registration yet, so no rush, but i'm hoping to use lfnw as a dress rehearsal of sorts. | 21:38 |
| nhaines | Ooh, a good idea. | 21:39 |
| wxl | i gotta get my freaking pi2 set up already | 21:41 |
| wxl | if you're going to come to oscon, let me know and i'll leave the ubuntu phone side of things in your hands XD | 21:41 |
| nhaines | Haha, thanks! Yeah, I'll definitely keep you filled in. I had just been thinking about OSCON last week. | 21:44 |
| wxl | it would be nice to actually have the bq phone there rather than just my crappy old nexus 4 :) | 21:46 |
| nhaines | Hopefully that'll be something that Canonical can make happen by then. :) But the truth is that the two phones seem to work very similarly. | 21:48 |
| wxl | nhaines: i realize that but the officialness of it will certainly make those less personally familiar with ubuntu ooh and ahh :) | 21:48 |
| nhaines | I found that this actually seemed to be a secondary concern. A lot of people were happy to see Ubuntu on our N4s at SCALE and then just briefly look at or hold the bq phone before leaving. | 21:50 |
| nhaines | (This was a pleasant surprise.) | 21:50 |
| wxl | oh hm | 21:52 |
| wxl | kind of makes sense | 21:52 |
| wxl | and really the bq isn't marketed for the us, so that makes sense! | 21:52 |
| nhaines | Yeah. There was a lot of "When will this phone be available in the US?" "Never." | 21:52 |
| wxl | (aside: at first i didn't grok what you meant by n4 and thought there was some arm server i didn't know about) XD | 21:53 |
| wxl | never? | 21:53 |
| nhaines | Nope! The bq phone is Europe-only. | 21:53 |
| wxl | i thought canonical had announced there was to be an announcement | 21:53 |
| wxl | oh | 21:53 |
| wxl | not "touch" you mean "bq" | 21:53 |
| wxl | yeah, makes sense | 21:53 |
| nhaines | We had the "announcement in the next 6 months" timeframe back then, and I would surmrise with the attendee that a US-based phone would probably be speced more appropriately for US tastes. | 21:54 |
| wxl | the bq isn't 4g is it? | 21:54 |
| nhaines | It can do European HSPA+ but not US HSPA+ or LTE. | 21:55 |
| wxl | has lte even hit europe at all? | 21:55 |
| nhaines | Or 3G for that matter. So here it's 2G. | 21:55 |
| nhaines | I believe they've been using LTE for a while but the frequencies are different. | 21:55 |
| nhaines | I donno. I just buy Nexus phones so I don't have to worry about it. | 21:55 |
| wxl | heheh yeah | 21:56 |
| nhaines | Heck, T-Mobile doesn't even charge me for international data roaming anymore. :D | 21:56 |
| wxl | well i know that 3g is far more common there | 21:56 |
| nhaines | Or texts either, I think. | 21:56 |
| wxl | whereis here 4g is an expectation | 21:56 |
| nhaines | Yeah, I'd mention how great the phone is in the European market, and note how smooth and fast Ubuntu was on low-mid-end hardware. | 21:57 |
| wxl | hm so i'm probably using hspa+ with t-mobile | 21:57 |
| wxl | i didn't realize that | 21:57 |
| nhaines | So if the US wants a flagship phone, well, just think of how well Ubuntu will run on that. | 21:57 |
| wxl | yeah | 21:57 |
| * wxl grins widely | 21:57 | |
| nhaines | Regardless of the fact that it's true anyway, everyone seemed to buy into that. | 21:58 |
| wxl | how close is lte speed to hspa+? | 21:58 |
| nhaines | Or when someone asked how Ubuntu ran on the N5, I'd say "It's the best way to run Ubuntu if you hate Bluetooth." | 21:58 |
| wxl | hehehe | 21:58 |
| nhaines | HSPA+ is slower than LTE now but was faster than the first LTE phones out there. | 21:58 |
| wxl | interesting | 21:59 |
| wxl | according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wireless_data_standards#Overview it seems that hspa+ has the potential to annihilate lte | 22:01 |
| nhaines | Probably, but everyone seems to have picked LTE anyway. :) | 22:04 |
| wxl | doesn't make sense to me considering we have to create new infrastructure | 22:09 |
| wxl | UNLESS it is proven tha ttechnically lte can exceed all possible improvements in hspa+ | 22:09 |
| nhaines | Or if the hardware's cheaper. But when T-Mobile rolled out HSPA+ they made the towers software upgradeable to LTE. | 22:11 |
