Awesome to see so much people ready to jump on the job to get it

Looking forward to this so much. =)
Same. Except I hope it eventually has the "just works" factor (i.e
you can just load the software and it just works, without needing
to be a hacker to get it to work correctly, etc) like iSync does
for me now. I reckon a lot of Mac-users like me will go for
OpenMoko instead of iPhone if OpenMoko can be demonstrated to do
that.
Which pretty much means that when the developer release hits the
streets we happy hackers will make sure it works for us and when it
is polished a bit, perhaps around public release even, it will be
available as a download on our favourite site.
I don't mind being the one who makes sure it just works for normal
users and I bet I'm not alone in the sentiment.
Good to hear there are developers keen on making the "it just works"
work for normal users, I'm moving more and more from a technical geek
to a just need it to work for me user:-). Also very pleasing to see
there is a lot of Mac users interested in this project. I assume many
others will find this project as I did after been disillusioned by
the Iphone and looking for something else that will fill the need of
a phone that will allow me to share my Mac apps and data I chose with
my phone. Looking forward to a phone that allows me to use it the
way I want to use it, can take it with me every where I go (different
countries) and swap SIM for the local carrier so I don't get hosed by
roaming charges etc. Now there is an idea, program the ability to
copy SIM card profiles so I can switch between SIMs with out
physically inserting it when I need it. Not sure how possible that
is, don't know enough about how the SIM cards work.
Keep up the good work.
Steve
