I'm sorry, I misread your email.

So are you asking what is the difference between GTA02 phase 1 and
GTA02 phase 2?  The answer is no difference in the devices themselves.
GTA02 is the name of a particular hardware revision, and phase 1
vs. phase 2 is roughly the difference between "aimed at developers,
software in-progress" and "aimed at mass market, software
consumer-ready".  GTA02 is the final hardware revision of the Neo 1973
(unless there's a secret that FIC hasn't announced yet), so the
difference between buying one in October and buying one later is just
what software is pre-installed.  But the whole point is that you can
install/upgrade software yourself anytime you want, so there really
isn't any difference.

I hope that answers your question.

Marco
