Re: Harald LaF0rge Welte: Leaving OpenMoko...

Best of luck to Harald with his future projects. I hope that he continues developing for OpenMoko, even if it isn't in a paid position. J. On Nov 16, 2007 1:02 PM, Marc Verwerft [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Nov 16, 2007 6:56 PM, AVee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Friday 16 November 2007 14:20,

I could also be interested in this. I'm finishing up a master's degree in Information Science with a focus in Information Architecture and HCI, so I have a lot of interest in OpenMoko usability. Jeremy On 10/12/07, london cowgirl [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Justin Thomas I think the

I would be so disappointed if the OpenMoko devs gave up. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about Qtopia on the Neo, but I'm more interested in having options. I'm the type of user who loves to play with distros on my computers; being able to swap mobile OSes from OpenMoko to Qtopia to Sun's

Just for the record, I think this is a great idea and one I would totally use. I also know of many weather-channel nuts who would also jump on something like this. I mean, just think of all the people who install spyware like Weatherbug, just so they don't have to look out a window. J. On

Meh, the fact that you can't even do something as simple as open the thing up to replace the battery when it goes bad is enough to steer me away. I'm interested only in unlocked phones, and the Neo is still the most promising. On 9/6/07, Denis Parchenko [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thursday,

Re: Myth Busting FTW

2007-08-29 Thread Jeremy G
The free and open Anti-iPhone rhetoric surrounding the FIC phone is therefore marketing drivel to sell a Chinese Windows Mobile device as a hobbyist kit for phone hackers. Statements like that really piss me off. For one, AFAIK nobody within FIC is trying to introduce the Neo as an Anti-iPhone.

But OpenMoko developers should have the right to choose the development tools they prefer. It is they who have a lot at stake in this project. The worse that can happen to you or me is that we won't be able to play with a new gizmo. Sean, Mickey, and the rest of the paid OpenMoko team are

I'm glad someone came out and said this. I quit tracking that thread because of the level of venom expressed by the community to FIC. If Harald's blog is an indication of anything, it's that FIC is having a lot of problems right now. Give them time; the Neo has only been out for a few months.
