Hi Julien, I am not aware of any plans to release Dev Phone for other then US countries. However, I've got an idea how you can use other (French for instance) layout with your Dev 1. I assume French G1 has French version of the /system/usr/keychars/ keypad-v3.kcm.bin keychar map file. If so, then you can ask somebody with French G1 to get the file for you so you can substitute the file on your Dev 1 with the French version. Then, just stick a couple of new labels on the keyboard to match your layout. :) The above works with Russian version of the file. Unfortunately, switching between keyboard layouts is not that easy...
