hello openmoko folks,
i've been intrigued by your announcements and would like to ask:
could an open platform like yours be used to provide a smartphone ui
that's more accessible to the visually impaired?
as more details about the platform emerge I'll be interested to see
how much ui cust

Ahmm but doesn't a FPGA bare the risk that beside open source
important parts of the device stay close source?

Brilliant idea! Of course the FPGA selected should have good open source
support and tools.
I, for one, would be very happy with this.

I'm not a corporate marketing-ologist, but surely the more hardware
platforms OpenMoko runs on, the more credibility it will receive.

Will the OpenMoko repository contain drivers for all supported
platforms, or will the drivers be distributed and bundled by the
hardware vendor into a specific SDK - in this case FIC for the Neo1973?
Or is that still to be decided?
