Save yourself a lot of crap. Buy the openmoko freerunner. Open hardware, open software - gpld. You are most unlikely to "ever" need anything else.
And btw all the hype - including the Qs outside shops - are managed. You get paid to stand there.
Dude, I have put my money where my mouth is and bought the Freerunner. Since one month, I have been banging my head against various hard, unyielding surfaces trying to get it to work.
Once I am sure it will work without a glitch, without making me wait 30 minutes to get registered to the network, 3 mins more to open the dialer, and not let the battery die on me in 3 hours (not to mention the 10 mins it takes to boot up), I will open a service centre where I can customize people's FRs and make some money.
My daily use phone is a MotoRokr E6. Can you just imagine the usability difference between the two?
