It depends on what you mean by Linux/OSS friendly. Motorola have Linux
based mobiles, IIRC, but they are one of the more expensive designs
and they aren't particularly Linux desktop friendly, though they
supposedly follow the standards for OBEX and USB Mass Storage, so
should work, and if they don't, just get the code and look.

OpenMoko is definitely the way forward if you want a device you can
play with though.
