You and *I* feel that way... But the general public will be taking stock
of the appearance and ease of use etc...
Besides.. I mentioned it so that we can take a look at the view some
general person my have of a new device and see how we can improve upon
any weaknesses. There will be no shortage of devices competing for the
top spot... And against the iphone.
Many, Many all touchscreen devices will be out there.. And we are not
going to be first... So we can at least acknowledge the competition and
work to improve what we can.

There already was Samsung phones with HSDPA support which was slower
than normal UMTS phones of other manufacturers.
Also flash lite might be good looking, but it is definately no
smartphone platform. At least you cannot use the UI for additional apps
(must be an overlay).
The display resolution is very poor for a such big screen.
For me this devices is pretty uninteresting, and even if it'd be able
to run openmoko that wouldn't matter for me.
Why should I give my money to a company that doesn't support opensource
only to use their hardware with hacks and openmoko?
Let's hope OpenMoko and the FIC Neo1973 will be successful and FIC
produces more open phones in future.

If I remember correctly, the F700 is using a Flash lite interface.
Even though it does not have WiFi, it does have 7.2M HSDPA :) I am
pretty sure it does have bluetooth though. Look here:

The wallpaper on the F700 from the first Google result (
http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/cellphones/apple-iphone-vs-samsung-f700-which-is-touchscreenier-235112.php
) is a total rip-off of the Ubuntu default theme. I doubt that
they're actually running Ubuntu (although I think Ubuntu is getting
into the mobile market).
The features don't really seem comparable. No wifi and no bluetooth.
And the screen is even smaller and lower resolution than the iPhone.

Has anyone else seen the samsung F700?
Its features are pretty nice... No idea on the OS but I would
definitly
take one over an IPhone... If it performs anything like it looks...
Hehe.
Its got very good specs.
