Economically, the question is:
- what is the price of the required qty of calypso based phones

- what is the amount of work needed for porting to MTK
yes, you are right. One more thing is in my mind, will China produce enough Calypso-based phones forever? I found 10 MTK-based phones on the market, but not even one TI-based.The problem is that I cannot make any assumptions about amount of work needed to do the l1 task, that's why I asked on the list.
[ One more thing, what about making a page on Wiki that lists various phone models with used chips? I can add what I have found so far. ]
Some developers have already put quite a bit of effort into the MTK chipset side, and even though we don't have the register-level data sheets of all of the ABB chips and the DBB data sheets do not cover anything on the details of the DSP/ARM API interface, I think it is the most promising architecture.
Can you point me right direction? I have found some MTK code in git, but there is no documentation at all, etc.
