[Corey Young]

Hmmm. I seem to remember someone saying something like that  But
that might just be me.  Can we get someone official to answer this?
even if its just to state that it wont be ready by then.

Simple. Samsung S3C2442B (FreeRunner's SoC) doesn't support USB 2.0.

Would it really be difficult to swap usb 1.1 for usb 2.0 ?
The main reason would be to speed image burning ...

It was never meant to be an IPhone killer. It was designed for beeing
the first open phone.
What I wanted to say: since this is an HW revision, not a brand new
phone, the components regarding 3G and USB 2.0 will not be present in
the GTA03. The glamo chip will be removed since it was a bad design
(personally I would like to keep it, but people at OM think it is
better to remove it, so it will be removed).
We should get a camera and EDGE, but no more details are given.

If you want 3G, 3D accelleration, more power, 4Mio pixel camera and so
on, just wait for the GTA04, and hope that samsung will open their
6410 SoC

I'm sure that with a little more effort you could be a fine pessimist... 
keep it up!

So now we are targeting crippling the phone further?  Real iPhone killer it
is going to be.

It seems that the first 25 GTA03 Evaluation Boards have already
arrived to wolfgang on August the 11th [1], so the phone *might*
arrive in shops in december, I think no one knows.

BTW: It is unsure what will be in (what kind of camera, what GSM chip,
and so on), but what won't be there is quite sure:

-No Glamo
-No 3G
-No USB 2.0

Cool, although as far as I know, it's still a bit unsure what's going

Holiday season.. what year :)

Just a guess, not based on anything but a feeling: I don't expect it
to arrive before mid-2009 no matter what the promises have been.
