About this blog

Greetings!

I created this blog for a couple of reasons:
1. Posting online keeps me accountable so that I will stick with the project
2. It forces me to write down what I am doing, so that if anything goes wrong I can look back on what I did.
3. If anyone is interested in building a Piphone they will not have to go through the same mistakes as I did.

The end goal of the project is to create a fully functioning, in both hardware and software, phone that is made out of the raspberry pi and can act in every way like a regular phone.

I am currently, halfway-ish (it is always hard to tell when you are working on projects) to completion, but there is still plenty left undone. So stick around and (hopefully) my spelling and grammar will not be too bad.

I am going off of a project that NODE did https://n-o-d-e.net/zeroterminal.html
This project is identically similar in hardware to what he did, except for a few things.
- I am planning on adding a camera (what phone does not have a camera?)
- I am also planning on adding a SIM card so I can make calls (if that is even possible, we shall see)


Oh yeah one last thing. I currently do not own a phone, so this is going to be my first phone ever.
