The fact is that the "first version" was put out early so that hardware hackers and developers could get their hands on the phone in advance.

The phone still can't be relied on to make calls. At this point, if you're looking for a phone that you can call with in an emergency or can rely on for business use, OpenMoko is not ready. What is ready is the software stack that will let you hack on the different components and get things working
