Re: resolution preferences??
Honestly, if the freerunner did not have VGA screen but QVGA, I would not buy it ! For me, VGA is a must have feature. As other said, there are plenty of QVGA devices. I don't want one of them because of the resolution. I have a Dell Axim X5 and I'm really sad about the QVGA resolution (in addition of the windows OS :( ) Please, please ... keep the VGA screen !

Re: photographs of box and POSSIBLE contents of Neo Freerunner
I agree with you. I think it could be better if we could store the stylus into the phone. The good point is that we can do most of things with the finger, and we won't need the stylus everytime we will use the phone. But it's a feature I would like to see in the GTA03 version.
