Sony是不是疯了???
What’s under the hood?
The Navitus is based on a 200MHz Motorola i.MX1, a popular ARM920 based application processor that powers several PDAs (including the Royal Linea) and other handheld devices that run Linux. The Navitus boots from 32MB of Flash, using the JFFS2 filesystem, cramfs, tmpfs, and ramfs.
The Navitus measures 4 x 6.5 x 2 inches (120 x 174 x 38 mm) and includes a 3.5-inch backlit touchscreen LCD supporting 65K colors. It weighs in at 12 ounces, for optimal beverage balancing properties. Operating range is 33 feet (10 meters).
I/O ports include a USB port and a memory stick slot. The device is powered by a non-removable Ni-MH battery.
Software side
The Navitus uses a 2.4.18 Linux kernel based on MontaVista Linux, which has supported the i.MX1 processor since July of 2003. Sony lists bash, busybox, and tinylogin among the source packages, and the kernel appears to include support for the processor’s serial interface, suggesting that it may be possible to somehow bring up a shell on the remote control. The kernel also appears to support NFS, possibly for use with a filesystem on a remote development host. These features may have been disabled in the kernel that is included in the production version, however.
The Navitus uses mtools to interface with the memory stick, and appears capable of initializing memory sticks using the msmkdosfs package.
In addition to standard ASCII (iso8859-1)and US English (codepage 437), the Navitus supports Multilingual Latin 1 (NLS codepage 850), suggesting Sony will market the device in Europe.
