How much of a 'maybe' is that 'might be possible' ??? Is it just a matter of sourcing, soldering, testing? I guess sourcing in small quantities after production would be the hardest part? .... because I'm very tempted to pre-order, but only if there is some possibility of it making a usable phone in a year or so, and without accelerometers I would find the functionality severely reduced (I turn my phone upside-down to lock it, and tap on various sides for various functions).
