Well, that idea is used by most (afiak all) german providers for mobile
internet.
They offer a tool to disable it (to have the option on the phone itself woul
be great!), but most people don't even care on the picutres being totally
crappy... So I think this feature (the compression) should be avaliable on
carriers side, not on the openmoko side. Of course not every carrier will do
so, but in my mind you cannot ask FIC to offer this service... that will
cause GBs of traffic per day, if enough users buy and use the phone.
