Ive managed to hang it after first 10min of intense clicking;) but I vote for the Openmoko, for the openness never seen before in mobiles, from the very begining and not from the moment where competition arrives...
Qtopia has been open sourced for more than 6 years now, from it's beginning. It wasn't any open source competition that resulted in opensourcing the telephony stack, it was a lack of a perceived threat to our business if we did so, and much work by Qtopia engineering. Granted, the Neo was part of the reason why (we wanted to release this port, but the Neo is a 'free' phone, and we couldn't very well release a closed source Qtopia for it, no matter how good it is), but the timing of the Neo made it appear as if Trolltech were only reacting to it. It has been a long time in the making.
its only my opinion and I dont want to argue with anyone :-)
No arguments, everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I wanted to set the answer straight.
