secure bags with bluetooth handsfree!

Posted on 2010-06-30 11:22 UTC by nas nahhh. Status: Waiting, Categories: Utilities, Devices, Accessories, Open sourcing.

WHY?

Often I travel by ship / train long for many hours. Often I sleep. Every time I am afraid of my bag, someone could steal it as I sleep.

POSIBLE SOLUTION?

It would be awsome if I could put my bluetooth handsfree in my bag and have my n900 in my pocket. n900 could run an application that checks every 2 - 3 seconds BlueTooth signal strength ( maybe could be configurable range ) and if the strength gets low or none, then n900 will alarm loudly / vibrate.

I hope my idea was clean. And since I don't know much about programming ( only php :( ) I hope someone will find intresting my idea and make it!

Automatically Disable Vibration when on charging

Posted on 2010-04-19 17:03 UTC by Aman Narang. Status: Waiting, Categories: Utilities.

Hi,
i am not programmer but just an idea which i guess should not be very difficult to implement.

Usually we keep our phones on a hard surface when on charging mode and so when i get a call or a msg it vibrates, scratching the lower body. Plus, i also dont like the sound of vibration on a hard surface.

Can anyone make a hack that disables vibration mode when charging and re-enables it when removed from charging mode?

Winetasting app

Posted on 2010-04-11 14:21 UTC by Jonas Backman. Status: Waiting, Categories: Utilities.

Hello!
I´m looking for a winetasting app where you could keep track of wines you have tasted. In this app you should be abel to add facts about the wine like what wine it is, apperence, nose, taste and food pairing. It would also be nice if there is a way to rate the wine and add a picture of the bottle.
Is anyone interested in helping me with this?

Location based reminders

Posted on 2010-04-09 05:21 UTC by Reto Bachmann. Status: Waiting, Categories: Location & Navigation, Utilities, User Experience.

I would like to bind alarms/reminders to a geo location rather than (just) to a time. I should be able to have a set of spots I visit regularly and be able to set an alarm that goes off the next time I'm near a selected spot. Also I should be able to set an alarm that goes off the next time I'm back at the curent location.

Usage scenarios:

  • Remind me to buy a tooth brush next time at the supermarket
  • Remind me to take my bicycle when I'm back here
