I'm in the same position as Bobby. I use my Neo as my primary phone as
well as my digital media player. I haven't touched the lanyard or the
pouch since I took them out of the box.
But I also don't use my stylus. My stylus was neat in the beginning,
because I could use it to play with my cats, but

They are $3 a piece w/ shipping included if you take ten.

Hi,
I think you are right.
There are two main opinions on getting the phone.
The geek way and the end user way.
Geeks have other needs or wishes than end users have.
What about addon packs to a basic phone with charger?

I think my main concern is I see "USB Cable" and "USB Charger" used
interchangeably in these messages. They are not one and the same. So which
is that we are talking about?

I am one of those crazy people who use the neo 1973 as their everyday phone,
and I NEVER use the pouch. Does any current every day user use the pouch or
lanyard?

I totally agree with you, Marco!

It is not necessary to modify a cable to fast charge the device. All
that is needed is something like [1] (which costs US$3) and the
software from [2] and you have fast charging without modifying a cable
or relying upon the folks from OpenMoko to get into the accessory

Not providing SD card could take off taxes about private copy or other
bullshits like that from RIAA and friends... as I said in a previous mail.
To me charger should be provided, with stylus, headset and pouch at least.

I think the only thing in that list I would want with the Freerunner

money to me, personal

I have a 8 GB one (Sandisk) in my Neo right no
as far as I understand, the Y-cable was needed when you want to
power your
neo at the same time you want to connect an external device to it.
So the cable is not needed if you just want to attach an usb device.
But you still have to hack up a cable to make it work. Thus, it
