    it looks like a good gizmo. do you think it would have drawn interest without the apple phone for comparison?

    Probably not. I’ve been imagining such a device for a while, but it certainly would have taken longer to come to my attention without the iPhone hype.

    iphone vs openmoko will prolly be decided based on how influential people want to work. iphone is being positioned, beyond the central skillz, as an information wallet. enter data on the computer, or through the computer, and it’s there on the iphone. if there are hooks to do the same kinds of labor non-intensive sync’d data access in like big linux distros for linux smartphones then, great.

    quick scans around the net find that yes, it’s the sync’n'integration that people like. linux needs some no-hands sync services. also needs net-based home directories.
