Hmm together with knowing cost you can calculate how much is burned. There is also roaming with different tariffs though. How are you calculating the data, and how often? Is the log saved after reboot? I suggest to use external program like vnStat to count the data traffic.

We are barely doing any work whatsoever on this. All the data for it is provided through gconf. The phone handles everything having to do with the numbers. We just need to dumbly display them, honestly. Reboot doesn't erase the numbers. The user has to specifically tell the phone to reset the numbers in the Phone portion of Control Panel.

Interesting. Then I wonder how the phone calculates the traffic, and how/if it is possible to detect roaming, country, and tariff.

I'll look into it.

Doesn't install. Finds only the misspelled package, but can't download it because it is missing?

Qole - the properly spelled package should be in extras-devel now, and is on its way to extras-testing. I am going to get some administrator to remove the incorrectly spelled package.

Sorry for the inconvenience

See? You've only just arrived and already you're making awesome suggestions!

That would be a kickass feature!

Obviously, you would need to collect data at a different point than you do currently - I presume you have access to gross bandwidth up/down? You would need to process bandwidth up/down in a similar layer as the nix utility netstat.
