Salve!

Short thougt about the power of the A-GPS - 1GB flash ram
would be interesting for a offline wikipedia - GPRS would
make it possible to access online informationes and the
USB host port could be used with a 4/8GB USBmemorystick.

And A-GPS can serve local coordinates even inside of buildings
or in other situations that no or not enough GPS satellites
could be used:

Several acitve wikipedia user are supporting Geo Information
for the wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Geographical_coordinates 

I think some of these project members (or of the German one)
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Georeferenzierung 
will know about the power of the Neo1973 (open linux smartphone
with A-GPS) and will like it very much, too ;)

Greetings,
rob
