Dunno... First link propose a case suggesting iPhone look, I think we shouldn't follow everything Apple come out with, and I second to pill case. When I first saw GTA02 look, I thought it's ugly, but that was just because it's unusual; now I like it and like a bottom hole around antenna. With relation to Raster's case, if you're going to get sliding number keyboard, we just enter a troublesome field of hardware modification difficulties as infamous buzz/echo problem has proved us: * It's a moving part and can be broken. * Software developers will enforce heavier requirement on users to use keyboard; programs can become more difficult to use without it. * Localization issues. Hopefully Openmoko (phones) will be wide-spread across the world, but will Openmoko (company) be able to make several lingual versions of keyboard? _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
