Again, please only respond to my "Clarification" email if you have
something FACTUAL. This is my rant email, so if you are just anxious
like me then respond to this.
I've been following the project for quite some time now and was
anxiously awaiting being able to purchase the phone in March (when it
was originally scheduled to be available for developers), but that date
came and passed and at the time I was ok with the setbacks. However,
almost three months have passed and there is still no hardware available
for me. Now to top it all off there has been talk of a hardware
revision that will include some really good upgrades (that I would
normally just wait for). However, my phone is on the skids and I am
going to need to make a purchase soon. This is by no means a threat or
whatever, but I'm seriously considering jumping ship on the project
because I don't like waiting for something that I have no idea will ever
come to fruition. There are plenty of phones that I could have now that
I would be perfectly content with and every day that my current phone
lets me down just makes it harder to...keep waiting. Before someone
says "that's just the way it is with hardware projects" can continue
playing the waiting game, but you may have to do it without me.
I guess the point of this is to say that I am 100% behind OpenMoko, and
I wish you the best but considering the circumstances I may have to
either catch you in September (or later). I really need some details if
I am going to be able to delay purchasing any longer.
