Yes that is correct. It is not Free Hardware in the strict FSF definition, and it didn't ever try to be. Like the GTA01, GTA02 and the Ubuntu Edge (if it had reached its crowdfunding goals), Raspberry Pi, BeagleBoard, OpenPandora, ... All of them have been as open as it could be practically done at the moment when some design decisions had to be made. Yes, it is nice to have an unreachable goalto keep all those Sisyphus people working :) -- hns _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
