Have they been for 5 years? I thought the Linux Initiative was only started a couple years ago... I guess the Foleo was not that much of a stepping stone, since it was almost ready and now it's going to be another 12-18 months before the linux phone comes out? Maybe they will continue to release these repackaged versions like the Centro until then, otherwise they are going to be seen as really stagnating...
