If AT&T likes losing customers, it's their choice. I use T-Mobile

I do have a mobile phone for communicating with my family and friends

Because I use one to stay in touch with the people who matter in my

closed black-box firmware.
It is also a well-known fact that most free software developers derive

Unfortunately they seem to have absolutely no interest in producing a

Hello Openmoko community,
As many of you know, Openmoko GTA01 and GTA02 phones are/were the only
two smartphone models in all of history on which it is possible -
albeit unofficially - to run free firmware on the baseband processor.
In the case of this elderly TI Calypso baseband there is not just

I already have one complete GTA02, and I use it for development, but

it in that manner.)
