Hi, I don't think your idea is that bad at all, but it doesn't look like something that's possible. OpenMoko wants all software on the phone to be open-source, thus no ad-ware lock-in is possible. It's reversible. Plus, the phone won't be any cheaper because of this reversibility.
But that's just my €0,01474 (wow, the exchange rate is nice these days). Greetz, Luit On 7/3/07, Vladimir Giszpenc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, Given the power of Google and Madison Ave, it would seem that people are weak and cheap... How about a Minority Report type of advertising on the phone using the GPS data? This could even be payed based on proximity (bonus when the ad worked). This could be a way to get advertising dollars (euros, etc) to help reduce the price of the phone even more. My gut says that this idea is evil; my instinct tells me that getting big business behind our open phone could really help... Let the flames begin. I know I deserve it. Just remember that I meant well. (and I do know how the road to hell is paved).
