Shakthi, do you really have GTA01 model with you?
Yes, Neo Advanced.
I would like to know more about your experience with the product.

Will it fine if we buy "Developer Version" now and then upgrade OS once its released in october?
I believe the distro capability has the upgrade option, just like any other distro. Higher releases just support more peripherals and have new applications.

Shipping cost is now reduced a lot from 90$ to 60$.
Yes, that is true.
Back to original question, anyone interested in buying "Developer Version" and sharing shipping cost?
You probably want to put up a page on http://db.glug-bom.org/wiki so you will know if others are interested, and you can share shipping costs. Also, check:

Read more about "Developer Version" before making up mind.
Customers are different from developers. I believe they put this sort of warning message on the wiki because customers are eventually going to compare the phone with other models in the market, and they didn't want them to create FUD, because:
1. Customers never understand technology, they only use it. 2. It will take some time to get cool applications that customers would like to use. Already many projects have been registered here:
Please feel free to ask any questions on this mailing list or in these lists: http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/
Will be glad to help.
