1.) estimate the size of the potential market for OpenMoko devices 2.) see how long the hype will last. Can anyone here suggest an HTC phone which can be bought in Europe for less than $400 and can run linux well enough to dial out and somehow connect to a PC ?" Ummm... Why go to the trouble of making pre-prod prototypes and photographing the internals? Why so spare on the number of screen mock-ups for all to drool over? Why direct all the press to date at the FOSS developer community, instead of the target mass market? Sorry, but this "vapourware" marketing research plan that you have so cleverly unmasked is not looking very much like competent, ore even experimental market research to me. Patience, my friend. Patience.
