I'm from the coast, into surf/sailing.
Ideas:
- openmoko attached to bouys, phones home with bouy angle, wave forces
- openmoko race application, allow other boats to watch speed, position,
and accel forces on race participants (would be cool to see graphic of
boat hitting waves and the angle
Matthew, I think these ideas are great. I often think that similar
applications could be developed using an Arduino board and some
specific modules, but once you price it all up you might as well just
use a FreeRunner.
You've probably seen boat race tracking on Google Maps:

Hi Michael.
We have similar toughts about it.
What Im willing to do is a real Adventure Phone, based on Freeruneer
and Debian.
Im planning a water/dirt proof rubber case. Something that should be
great is a compass too...
Im a brazilian surfer, so this why I think that it could be a real

For sure Adam.
Like Michael said, we should start something in the wiki.
I was looking for something similar and found this:

I've been dying to do an EZ-USB / Openmoko project, for over a year.
This would be way cool.

It's not in the LEAST bit accurate. Like ±200m or so. This is hopeless
if you want to measure the rise & fall of the tide, atmospheric

This would be really cool for glider (hang-glider, paraglider) pilots.
They usually carry a combined altimeter / variometer instrument
