Software by its nature is easier to fix than hardware or even
firmware; this approach does the Right Thing: vendors win
because the firmware layer just got a whole lot easier to write
and the rest of the world wins because we get as much control
as legally permissible of our hardware.

Dear Community,
Some of our chips or chipsets contain proprietary firmware in flash
memory. For example, in GTA02 these include the Wi-Fi, GPS, and GSM
chipsets.
Ideally, we would have liked to use chipsets for which even the
firmware code would be free, but they don't exist right now.
So
