[Gta04-owner] UMTS modules arrived

[Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller]

Hi all,
today, we have received the first batch of UMTS modules for the
new GTA04 board. See photos (one shows the GTM601 just placed
on the old board that was designed for the GTM501 - but size doesn't
differ much).

Beyond that, I have some more good news:

1. it looks as if we can get the MT29C4G96MAZAPCJG-5 IT
     memory chips at a reasonable price and from stock. So we
     will can expect 512 MByte RAM and 512 MByte NAND Flash
     on board.

2. it appears that the DM3730 1GHz version of the OMAP3
     is less expensive than the 720 MHz version of the OMAP3530.
     So we have asked for a quotation of those.

     The only drawback is that delivery was indicated for End of March.
     But let's see if we get them earlier.

So we will get the largest memory and the fastest OMAP3 that is currently
available.

Now, the PCB redesign and production is on the critical path and I am
working 48h/14days on that :)

BR,
Nikolaus

Here are the promised photos of your UMTS modules:
