Hi, I've been on the list since end of march and I really love this project.
I am planning to buy a Phase 2 phone but there is still something to know before.
Somewhere I read that FIC will likely sell the phase 2 to phase 1 owners for something like $150 (instead of $300 - yes, I know that phase 2 will cost more likely around $450 instead of $300). If I understood it correctly, the OpenMoko-project is something with a "long term support project", meaning there will be software updates all the time in future, not like the phones on the market right now who stop their support after a year or two. As OpenMoko updates the software, FIC will update the hardware too. I wonder if FIC will offer every time the phone gets an hardware-update some deal like there has been talking about the update phase 1 to phase 2. Does anyone has some more information or a link or so to read something about that?
I mean it would be really sad if the phase 3 would be _way_ better than the phase 2 but "you"'ve bought already a phase 2 in okt/nov and the update would be somewhere around june/july or so. I would feel somehow ripped-off if there would be no update-deal...
I hope someone got an idea what I am trying to say... :-/ Greets Jan _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
