It will be very exciting to play game like Invisible Train on Neo!  We
should make many different kind of board games based on the
technology. However, the processor of Neo is only a 266MHZ ARM920T
CPU(Samsung s3c2410). Do it have enough processing power to run your
software or the ARToolKit used in the Invisible Train project?

Re: camera in the next version ? (for augmented reality app)

From a personal standpoint I'd like to see a camera in the next version,

because I use the 2MP one in my phone very frequently. It's handy to have a
camera of some sort with me 100% of the time to catch random events - of
course it doesn't replace a real camera for situations where I can plan to
have one on me in advance.

But like you say, it's the other developments that could be made with a
camera on the OpenMoko that are really exciting, the stuff we can't even
think of right now.
