So where can one get Neo1973?  Some postings mentioned it was available
Dec 2006 and some mentioned Q1 2007.

FIC seems like a Taiwanese company.  I wonder if they sell it in North
America.

The only reason to use uClinux is if the target has no MMU. If which
case, really, toss the phone away for something real.

hot from the press today: http://wiki.openmoko.org/

The build process is a huge pita. It seems 2007 is the year of the new
packager/builders. You'll need SVN, monotone and bitbake.

It is based on www.openembedded.org. It currently runs on the NEO1973,
which will be released in 3 weeks. Today someone reported having ported
it to the HTC Universal: http://scap.linuxtogo.org/

Definitely keep an eye on openmoko / openembedded. Their momentum far
surpasses the GreenPhone.
