Re: The GTAs
Is no 3g motived by hardware limitations , licensing problems, or a decision from the silent and mysterious design department ? this has been discussed extensively only a few weeks ago. please, do us all a favour and check the archives before bringing up questions that are apparently obvious. the more obvious a question is the more likely has it already been answered. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
