GTA01 is an early stage devs version and the first phones only started arriving yesterday. The phone can make and receive phone calls and has some really basic apps like calendar, calculator, etc. UI still desperately needs attention. http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Developer_preview http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverPort#Write_low_level_code_and_drivers Website is down. 2: To what extent is it possible to use the phone as my daily phone? Are the > basic apps good enough? Depends on what you can do without (temporarily of course). You can check it out under qemu - http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/OpenMoko_under_QEMU 3: How long does the device run on a battery? No one knows. Battery is 1200mAh for GTA01. Going by my phone with a dinky 850mAh and a few more features which lasts about 3.5 hrs with everything cranked, I'd say the neo will last about 5 hrs with everything cranked. Though power management was still a bit flaky last I checked (may have been fixed by now). 4: is the uboot bootloader stable enough to make a basic model sufficient? > It seems stable, but I don't know that it's enough for daily use.
