Hi Brolin, Fundamentally, at this point, my Openmoko Freerunner fails the Not Interested in Technology - Significant Other Acceptance Procedure, otherwise known NIT-SOAP.
If you want a phone that is going to Just Work, get a Nokia. If you want a Linux smart phone to hack about on, an Openmoko Freerunner fits the bill quite nicely, except for the animation speed on the screen, which is markedly slow. I should probably be specific here - the phone is almost certainly going to need flashing when you get it, and that's going to require a command line. You're probably going to want to change something to get something working, and that's going to require running ssh to connect to the phone on the command line, and changing something, somewhere. The flip side of this is that you can change what ever you like in hardware or software with the phone (with exceptions for a couple of firmware blobs in the GSM modem and wifi chipset), and some people find this quite liberating. Hope this helps, Cheers, David
