Is it legal to sell these cases? The design may be based in no small
part on work done by FIC, who will not be impressed by us stamping on
their IP. We don't want to take the piss - they are helping us a lot.

Making a few one-offs for ourselves, with no profit is ok, but as soon
as we start marketing them, things may change.

When he's not so busy, this would be one for sean to enquire about.

I can sell it through my website: http://www.handheld-linux.com
although I currently focus on the European markets only (due to tax
and duty complexity).

Depends on the number of total units of the OpenMoko being sold. I
would assume 1% after sales as a first rough guess.

Probably not. I remember that we did have approx. 50 - 100 different
custom designs at Siemens mobile phones.
