Users in Hampshire, as well as other parts of the UK (I'm from Portsmouth originally), may be interested to learn that you will very soon be able to buy FreeRunners from us at Oxford Archaeology [1].
We special in sales to academic/research groups, LUGs and in producing custom solutions based on the Openmoko platform. We have our first shipment winging its way to us as we speak and are more than happy to take pre-orders. You should also find our pricing to be more than reasonable ;) Email me @ Joseph dot Reeves at thehumanjourney dot net to discuss more.
