i had a similar conversation at radio shack trying to get the headset
to phono adapter. i had put the phone on the counter to test if the
wire worked.
radio shack employee 1: is that the new htc?
me: nope
radio shack employee 1: what is it
me: its an openmoko. it runs linux
radio shack employee 1:
There was a video showing Maddog Hall wearing one around his neck.
Besides I found the design very stylish.
The usual route of conversation goes like this:
"whats this...?"
me: openmoko
"..." takes it "like iphone..."
me: it's not an iphone...
"touchscreen..."
me: and it runs on linux
"..?
I think that is little heavy for my neck?

obvious feature.
As far as I know, the case design predates Openmoko. I've heard that
it was originally mad

Although I'm not from Asia, I like the design. It's not like all the other
fancy mobiles with.. ehh...
It has been designed for the asian market, where it's pretty fashionable to
hold your phone with a strap around the neck.
