Conversation with Romain Guy, Google engineer

<oscillik> romainguy: any news on this 900MHz issue with the Galaxy Nexus? please?
<oscillik> by all accounts, this seems like hardware defect
<Khaytsus> oscillik: that's a Samsung problem, not Google ;)
<CPng|N> yeah how do they manage to come out with these features and then not implement them on new lines?
<romainguy> oscillik: the volume that changes by itself?
<CPng|N> as if a tiny 3 color LED is that expensive
<oscillik> romainguy: yes
<Cancel_> romainguy: that's a "feature"
<Khaytsus> CPng|N: What's funny is as I recall NOBODY really utilized the RGB notification light except third party apps
<oscillik> due to interference from the 900MHz GSM band
<romainguy> it's a known issue and I believe we have a software fix
<FernandoMiguel> Khaytsus: N1 was the only device with RGB track ball
<romainguy> but it's not my area so...
<lonelyDonut> Khaytsus: i used the shit out of them on the N1. I miss it so.
<romainguy> no guarantee etc.
<Khaytsus> FernandoMiguel: So you're saying small footprint of users to have such a feature eh?
<oscillik> romainguy: really? even though by all accounts it seems largely to be a hardware defect due to insufficient RF shielding?
