looking for a MID
I'm looking to get a MID in the (really) near future to replace my 2,5 old SonyEricson K600i. I refuse to get and IPhone (no mater how good it can get with 3.0 firmware), and OpenMoko FR is too much geek time consuming. What can you guys recommend from the devices available in Europe that can run some FOSS OS, preferably Ubuntu. I've hear about "SmartQ 5" but dont have any clues about its performance or connectivity. Thanks in advance. -- Hi, I'm BUGabundo, and I am Ubuntu (whyubuntu.com) (``-_-´´) http://LinuxNoDEI.BUGabundo.net Linux user #443786GPG key 1024D/A1784EBB http://BUGabundo.net ps.

One thing I can tell you: Jaunty brings multitouch to pretty much every laptop around. If the UNR doesnt have it yes, jaunty build will. -- Hi, I'm BUGabundo, and I am Ubuntu (whyubuntu.com) (``-_-´´) http://LinuxNoDEI.BUGabundo.net Linux user #443786GPG key 1024D/A1784EBB http://BUGabundo.net ps.
