Re: [Cerowrt-devel] hardware hacking on fq_codel in FPGA form at 10GigE

I'm sure the HSPA+ modem is a binary blob.  For regulatory reasons, if nothing else...
 
When I said open, I did not mean the ultimate ideal.  Hardware devices with firmware are often sold as black boxes.
 
Fixing the bloat in HSPA+ and LTE systems will require organizations like Ericsson, ALU and Cisco and Huawei to get their acts together and fix their own bugs.

And if you want an open tablet the ODROID U2 there is pretty nice for <$900 all in, including an HSPA+ modem w/GPS.   I can only imagine what one can do with this....
Often the modem bits are binary blobs.  Any information on this front?

It really is astounding what is going on in the arm world:
