edit:
yes, the battery life sucks at the testing image (on 2008.9 i had 40 hours, which is not great, but since i come at least every second day, this was not a problem)

Community, you have this Openmoko company who is still working on
their product some months after it's been released. Granted, the first
release was nowhere near astounding. But in closed world developement,
who could claim such dedication? ;)

In a closed world OM would have been panned, the devices returned and
probably have been forced out of business by now.

Openness is great. FOSS is great. Working base functionality is more
important though. After trying to live with the freerunner and OM2008 for a
month I bought another phone. My FR is also doing a good impression of a
brick most of the time.
Maybe i'm teh luckiest guy in the universe, but i've been using my fr as a daily phone without problems (i am always reachable, i don't even know what wsod is, echo is there, but barely noticable, no buzz, te testing image is *FAST*) there are some issues (e.g. i don't like the qpe apps), but the basics are working RELIABLY. the antenna the put into the pill is awesome: i am the only person at the pub, who has reception (which is not always a good thing, becaus there are so many annoying folks out there who keep stealing my time).

i am using the testing image (but i also have a backed up 2008.9 which is working perfectly, but slower than the testing, which is why i switched to testing)
