(it's FOSS right?) I have a related question. I am quite happy about the development that is bringing to the production of the neo1973, because I am eager to own a phone for which I can comfortably develop apps. Openmoko is going in the right direction, from my point of view. But I am used to have a phone with QWERTY keyboard together with a touchscreen (currently, a treo 650). There are lots of cute models around which sport a keyboard, from the Motorola Q, to the Nokia E61, to this new Samsung model (SCH-i760) which can be seen on a page on mobile-review.com whose URL was posted yesterday on this list. Or even the Sharp PV-200 (AKA T-Mobile Sidekick 3). I am used to write SMS messages with my thumbs while walking. I hated palm graffiti - way too many errors: writing was painfully slow. And if, as I expect, text input on the neo will be from a virtual keyboard on the touchscreen, with a stylus, walking and typing will simply not be possible. My question is: are there plans for FIC to produce a QWERTY keyboard model with native openmoko? (Possibly with wifi in place of gps, and with real mini-sd instead of micro-sd - but these are my personal preferences) No matter if the phone comes to be somewhat larger!
