"WARNING: The OpenMoko GUI applications are not suitable for end users
yet. They are still in beta. Do not expect to always and reliably make
and receive calls from the OpenMoko GUI. Thanks to the openness of the
FIC Neo1973 hardware, there is also an alternative to the OpenMoko
GUI: Qtopia 4.3.x is released under GPL and is at the edge of being
usable for phone use."

That doesn't seem very promising for a phone coming out next month or
so.  It *has* to at never ever crap out as a phone, above all else.
If my calendar suddenly gets nuked with a package update, well... but
not the phone.  I'd love to go Linux though.  It'd be so much fun!
