how big is the advantage of the gta02s and gta04s regarding private data?

Ask them if they have actually read the contracts they have signed in order
to use their device. I have, and I actually like the ones I'm bound by
(e.g., GNU GPL).

Most people nowadays assume that there is no alternative to a lopsided
contract in which the user must cede all rights. To me, one of OpenMoko's
greatest successes was proving that it is possible to have  a sane,
understandable contract and still use a cell phone.
