The Openmoko FreeRunner is being sold as a "developer" release at this
point.  People that expect a polished, complete distribution are going
to be disappointed.

There are several stacks of software available for the phone, all of
them able to be flashed into the phone, and there are some that are on
their way.

People comparing the software to the iPhone are, by this very
definition, going to be disappointed.

On the other hand, developers who want a truly open platform to develop
some great applications on should have what they need.
