The 1,000.00 USD Audio to Earphone Speaker Contest

[Falk]

Ok folks, I know this is something that has been said to be impossible to do beforehand, but I want to know how far we can push it - I am offering 1,000.00 USD to the one brave developer who finds a solution to reroute all audio (be it music or VoIP data) to the *earphone speaker* of the whole HTC WM5/6 lineup in software only. 50% of the devices are not enough, it has to be all of them. It also has to be a new development that can be integrated into other WM software easily and that remains exclusively under my rights unless I decide otherwise.

sounds interesting... though I am no coder. But it seems a bit too difficult - for 100% of HTC WM5 and WM6, if not entirely impossible.

Yes, it might be downright impossible since people said before that HTC didn't implement the possibility to do this on the hardware level. But if there is even a slight possibility I want to enable people to put some more work into it. I hope that there is a solution after all and if the compatibility mark drops to 90% it would still be ok (just you get nowhere if you start low ;-))
