fwiw --
I just installed the qtopia images, and am _very_ impressed.
On bootup my phone told me I had new text messages, and displayed them
very easily. I even sent a text without issue.
Phone calling works, for both incoming and outgoing calls, the only
hitch was that I had to manually set the alsa levels using gsmhandset.state.
This is by far the most usable my neo has ever been, so I will most
likely keep using the qtopia image until the moko images do calling and
sms without as much fiddling around.
cheers to qtopia,
