Thanks for posting that -- certainly whetted my appetite.
It's also interesting that the author of the article didn't quite
understand which decisions have been made, and which are pending: he
didn't seem to understand that next version *won't* have a camera
(incidentally, I'm one of the people who would really like to see a
camera added, but I've also got several friends who work in no-camera
environments, who find trying to buy a cell phone nearly impossible
these days).
So true. I was staffing the booth at UbuntuLive. Many people were asking many
questions, and the camera question of course was a very common one.
My answer was the standard line, as discussed extensively and on the wiki:
there is absolutely no camera in the October version. I did speculate that
somewhere in the future it is possible that a Neo with camera will appear.
I suspect that people misheard.
By the way, it was inspiring to see the interest in that community. A lot had
not heard about this project and were very excited. I had about 70 paper
copies of my instructions for how to get from Ubuntu to Openmoko (in 5 easy
steps!) (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/User_talk:Michaelshiloh) and they were
all taken. I encouraged everyone to join the community.
