Greetings,

I am glad to see someone saying that :-)
I am also using my freerunner (with QtMoko) as my only phone and I am
also very happy with it. Of course, I also find a few "glitches"
now-and-then in the software/hardware; though things are continually
improving and more options are continually being added.
> Hopefully my FR hardware lasts until some other real Linux or even
> FreeBSD cellphone shows up again.
I am hoping the GTA04 will turn into exactly that, and even so, the
freerunner feels pretty "real" to me ;-)
A big thumbs up from me to the people who have worked on making that a
realisation, and to the people who have sponsored them! I am looking
forward to placing my order....
Best,
Toby
