I think this is just the difference in mentality. I'm from Russia, and here when you buy something you have to believe only to what you see. If a company says It's the best thing in the world I don't believe it. But I see that it's good. So I buy it. Here the situation is similar. OpenMoko sells

Any sort of warranty? A purchasable extended warranty? Spare parts prices? Anything? -- H. Lally Singh Ph.D. Candidate, Computer Science Virginia Tech ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org

Yeah, I know. I was hoping I'd get a response about the policy they're working on. Is it a proper warranty? An extended one (e.g. pay extra for a warranty)? Or just a declaration of what constitutes a defect that OM will repair? On Wed, Aug 27, 2008 at 3:22 PM, Steven Kurylo [EMAIL

In my opinion having only DOA right now is a good thing. Right now Freerunner is a phone for developers and they should accept the fact that it can have some imperfections. I want this project to grow. Do you imagine what would happen if everyone had warranty and discovered gps fix issue?

I would expect OM to warranty hardware defects. A DIY fix is acceptable as long as it doesn't require special tools or create potential to do more damage. I would much rather have OM ship me a replacement part than have to send the phone back. - Original Message - From: Yorick Moko
