I'm well aware of it, and resolving this duplication is a strong intention of mine.

update to quickstart user guide adds "known issue" section
http://quickstart.openmoko.org/ Most importantly, the addition of a "known issues" section: http://quickstart.openmoko.org/#knownissues Also minor improvements and corrections, incorporating suggestions made by some of you. Ian still has much better pictures at http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_Started_with_your_Neo_FreeRunner. I'm working on integrating the two so we don't duplicate information. (Duplication is evil because it almost guarantees that one is wrong, or at the very least confuses the newcomer.) Comments, questions, and suggestions welcomed.
