Hi everyone, I just joined the list after having read the last month or so worth of archives and can only say...I'm simply not buying a phone until I can buy the first Neo, one that comes equipped with WiFi. I've never paid for a phone more than 15 euros (usually signing a yearly contract instead), but I'm willing to spend a couple of hundred euros for a computing platform packed into a phone form factor and almost unprecedented level of integration into it's environment (touch screen, GPS, GPRS, GSM, WiFi, accelerometers).
Also, I think openbeacon is a great product and would like to see something like that in a future version of Neo, the use case being attaching cheap RFID tags to my keys, my wallet etc. so that Neo could detect moving away from the marks and could take action (beep, record last location, whatever). From what I've read, it seems that openbeacon is limited to a relatively small (<10cm) range: I'd like it to be more in the range of a meter. I am a developer, spending a lot of my time working with java and would very much like to see some kind of java running on the device both as a door opener to a see of existing applications (e.g. e-book readers) and so that I could use my knowledge and motivation to produce new applications for the Neo.
