I agree with this. I like to donate to a good project. I have my FSF membership to prove that. Similar, we could have an Openmoko membership. Maybe all the members got a neo punch? The price of the membership could be something like $25 pro anno. Just my 2 cents. -- Please don't send me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
