I think the press didn't understand the intention of Sean Moss-Pultz at Open Expo. If I google openmoko I met many wrong topics: The pages are in german but the messages are: Openmoko stops development of free smartphones. Linux smartphone openmoko failed Project Freerunner will not be continued on chip.de (03.04.2009) they even say: "after Neo 1973 there will be no more Openmoko smartphone", they even claim to know Plan B is a navigation system http://www.silicon.de/mittelstand/0,39038986,41002613,00/aus+fuer+linux_handy+openmoko.htm http://www.chip.de/news/OpenMoko-Aus-fuer-Linux-Handys_35990484.html http://derstandard.at/?url=/?id=1237229080902 It's really annoying to read this. But I am happy to see that where it was possible the community has commented the articles. Anyway it doesn't put a good light on Openmoko.
