Except very few (most hardcore) geeks on the planet. Let's remember: mobile phone is a PORTABLE device. Bunch of wires from USB hub + hub + usb adapter will at least make this thingie hardly usable as, er... phone. P.S. As for me, I'm still do not understand, why there is no WI-FI built in. This is a BIG hardware design mistake IMHO. Linux without network is something like North Pole without snow. And the only somehow popular networking in public places is WI-FI.
There has been many disscussion on the lists about not includin wifi in Neo1973. To sum up: first, there was no hardware available at the time of designing phone; second, you have bluetooth instead. Remember that this is first phone - if designers were told to put wifi, camera, accelerometers etc in first phone they simply would've never finish their design in time. cayco
