<div dir="ltr">Hi All,<br><br>I finally decided to post something to this list I experienced today.<br><br>I have a collegue I work with who is usually the first to get new cool tech gadgets. Sure enough he got both the first iphone and now just recently the second iphone. <br>
<br>After hesitating for some days after getting the freerunner I would show it to him today.<br><br>He was stunned! He said it feels really good in the hand. Actually thats the kind of feedback most people I know told me immidiately after handing it to them. Also the rubber like finish, he thinks is much better then the finish on the iphone. <br>
<br>Sure enough he was blown away by the detail the display shows and really really impressed by the fact that this is all result of an open source project.<br><br>The boots, well he liked them since he knows... And his comment about the linux kernel messages: Ah the same with a cracked iphone (I never cared to look into iphones that deep).<br>
<br>So I think this was really cool since I did not demo much more just boot and tangogps and illume. <br><br>So let's all get our hands dirty and make the software stack rock solid to make the neo's rock and roll! <br>
<br>Openmoko Team keep up the good work!<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Matthias<br> </div>
<br></blockquote><div>Yes, and let's make sure that the basic phone functions work faultlessly out of the box so that colleagues don't laugh at our backs (thinking the $450 purchase was a costly mistake from a rush of hubris). <br>
