Status of resellers (Was: GTA02 preorder please?)
Hello Michael, So direct pre-orders to OpenMoko.com are unlikely but in fact, I guess that some of us (in Europe for example) would prefer local resellers. Btw, what is the status of local resellers for France? Thank you Gilles ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Hi Gilles, I work for a UK based company with an office in the south of France. We plan to use the FreeRunner as a business tool are actively looking to become a reseller in the areas that we operate. Hopefully we'll be able to provide you with a phone at some point :) Thanks, Joseph On 22/01/2008, Gilles Casse [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Michael, So direct pre-orders to OpenMoko.com are unlikely but in fact, I guess that some of us (in Europe for example) would prefer local resellers.

Re: Status of resellers (Was: GTA02 preorder please?)
So how much will FreeRunner cost for end user approximately? As I understand, resellers will buy FreeRunners for $450 and sell them for about double price? And how about delivery cost? 2008/1/22, Joseph Reeves [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Gilles, I work for a UK based company with an office in the south of France.

I'm researching this within the company. I don't have an answer yet, but I would agree with Tim, that it is unlikely that we will be able to set up a pre-order system. It's not just an issue of the CC provider, but rather with laws that prevent charging a credit card until the item purchased has shipped. As a former employed at the Danish Consumer Agency I can confirm this is the law in Denmark, too. Would it be hard just to postpone the charging of the creditcard until the order has shipped? (All Danish web shops do this. If an item is temporarily out of stock your credit card will not be charged until the item is in stock and shipped to you). The good news is that we intend to build many more than before, so that pre-order won't be necessary. I have done 5-10 talks on OpenMoko with more coming. After each talk most of the audience is ready to buy (guesstimate in total: 500 handsets). I will not be surprised if FIC yet again underestimates how many handsets should be build in the first run. The pre-order could at least give an idea of that (plus I would have a pre-order URL to point to in my presentation). /Ole ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

At Fosdem (the Free and Open Software Developers European Meeting) there will be about 1500 people that are enthousiastic about open hardware and open software. I'd guess that if you'd be there with 300-500 handsets, most would be gone (sold) at the end of the weekend.

Since we have the harmonized EU market, you can order at any reseller in Europe and they can easily ship to every country in the EU at fairly reasonable cost and no special tax and duties considerations. So you don't necessarily need to have one located in your local country. There are some web-shops with a long tradition and experience in selling the Sharp Zaurus and some will also offer the GTA02. I am associated with one of these shops - The Handheld-Linux Shop http://www.handheld-linux.com - but I can't tell you anything about availablility and pricing of the GTA02. It is OpenMoko's role to make such product announcements. Nikolaus Schaller ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
