Default Re: OpenMoko - Anyone experienced it ?

^^WTF!

@Cadcrazy: Cant thank you enough for this link.

I have been leeching on this device for a while. This is another link for some more info.The distributor in India (IDA systems) is giving some discounts now. Since I didn't know any one personally who owns this device, I took reference from IDA systems and sent a mail to that gentleman. Here is the excerpt from that mail.

Hi,

I got your email ID from IDA systems. I have been planning to buy a
freerunner for a while now. Since I have not physically seen the
phone, I thought of getting your views on the same.
Especially on the following parameters:


a. Is the phone too sluggish? >> Depends on what you want to do.
b.How good is the display? >> EXCELLENT.
c.How is the internet browsing experience? >> Depends on what you want to do.
d.How good is the battery? >> quite good

e.Is there anysoftware available that can sync it with Microsoft

Exchange server? >> Yes.
f. Multimedia capabilities? >> Theoretically good. Practically limited because of non availability of drivers for Graphics. Sound is good.
d.What accessories comes along with the pack? >> An outlandish stylus. SD Card. Earphones. Charger. USB Cable.
I am still curious on web browsing aspect. I don't know how good or bad it is on this device. Apparently it uses the webkit engine used by Chrome and Safari.
