Buzz is very hard to catch if you not use the phone as phone :P,
really, it only is produced in certain signal strength conditions, so
if you have luck to live/move on a zone your not affected with the
buzz, you maybe never notice it, but if you like me live on a zone
affected your call partners will course your bones every time you call
them, (the buzz is more strong in the other side of the call then in
the phone it self)

Really is not time wasted, and Debconf will be one of the last
oportunities to have this solved because the hole reworking plans
supported by OM will last until 30 July, So at least for Tuxbrain this
will be the last Buzzfix party we will organize.
For sure you will find some one to fix it later on, but not for free
and not with a free extra battery as gift :)

Yes please, register and join us, we will love to see what "other
uses" you have made with the Neo,

Sadly not, there is no other way than empiricist one.
