Notes

Telephony:

Phone is dialing via scripts, gecko integration happening now. Figuring out which language, which thread, etc.

Plan so far is to have three threads:

 1. Talks directly to RIL file descriptor, sends and receives data to worker thread
 2. JS worker thread will do state machine stuff, send and receive data from RIL thread and main thread.
 3. Main thread will talk to worker and DOM.

Battery:
