I notice that when you look up a persons profile, it will show badges earned for the project. It appears the first one is available at 10k points. Is there a list anywhere of all the badges? Also is it possible that a persons badges show up under their name somewhere in the forum when they post?
Just a little something that might spark up some friendly competetion between folks.
Finally, is there a way to run Boinc / R@H on a HTC phone? (android)
Thank you.

I will answer for last question as server stuff are TJM's domain :)
We have made loads of experiments with Android devices and it's possible (but without warranty) that soon Android app will be available under NativeBOINC manager (look at http://krzyszp.info).
On this stage, I can give you some requirements:
1. Android device have to be equipped with USB OTG port. I know that Samsung Galaxy S2 have it, but don't know about other mobiles. Most tablets (including cheap ones) have it.
2. System must be minimum 3.1, but I have only tested detector visibility with 4.0.3 (haven't device with OS 3.1 to test).
3. Additional power source maybe will be required - still under testing.
Currently we still have problem with port access permissions but I hope we sort it...
Ps. Look at this host ;)

Thanks because I just pre ordered their newest smart phone and it would be cool if we could use it for the project.
External power, hmm, like putting a battery in the thing in the spare area on the detector. That is definately doable, I might even put a switch on it to turn it on and off. Im thinking a little lipo might work. USB is what 5 volt? What is the lowest volts this thing will work reliably on?

The silver one is for 100k credits and gold for 500k if I remember correctly. The rest is not implemented yet as it will take a while to go there anyway.
I'm adding the badges to the forum code right now.

Thanks Ascholten. So this is what it looks like so far.
