just few comments from a European! :)<br><br>Its just FINE that you base your company in China.<br>China is worldwide a synonym of superior quality and most advanced technology in terms of electronics and they are catching up extremely fast with the rest of the industrial activities.<br>
<br>I wouldn't care about Sisvel. Let them try to sue you in ... China :) What Sisvel 'defines' is useless and they know that. How may chinese companies were sued anyway? :)<br><br>iPhone is WAY too expensive! A pure Mickey Mouse device.<br>
<br>What I would like to see from your product would be a about 150EUR one where I can install by myself the needed s/w (OpenMoko style!) and use it as a portable multimedia player - for the beginning! :)<br><br>In general is a NICE TRY and hope you'll release soon a ready to run device.<br>

customers prefer to know less and creat rumours.<br>

Nobody needs them, but you have to pay them anyway.<br>
(Sisvel definition: any piece of HW who can decode MPEG algorith)<br>

<br>
I am mentioning a marketing problem.<br>
I am mentioning a quality problem.<br>
Besides, Iphone backside says "assambled in China".<br>

<br>
Psion Plc. invent the clamshell and set the top-level of usable keyboard<br>
verses form-factor with Series 3 twenty years ago.<br>
We are in the SMS/twitter age now. Some vitual keyboard with multi-touch<br>
usability is sufficient. People who want to write full sentences buy a<br>
pencil with white paper.<br>
<br>
<br>
In general, what advantage does the NanoNote have to an Iphone with<br>
Linux installed ?<br>
