I am currently thinking a lot about the OpenMoko<\/a> project. Unfortunately OpenMoko at the moment provides hardware which is limited to GPRS<\/a>, Bluetooth<\/a>, and\/or USB<\/a> 1.0 for connectivity. In autumn there should be<\/a> the next generation which should include a WLAN (and maybe even UMTS?) support. It will be called Neo 1973 – GTA02.<\/p>\n

Together with Austrian-based one “H.U.I. Starter” rate (250MB @ UMTS, reduction to 56kBit\/s above, 10\u20ac\/month) this would be a nice package. However, if I could have UMTS, well, that would be better. Personally, WLAN is even more important for me, I could use it in the office or in my home, where I have WLAN access available and fall back to GPRS while being “on the road”.<\/p>\n

For me this means: standby for autumn, because I can’t afford to invest US-$300 now and another US-$450 in a couple of month. Still, I am really, really interested in OpenMoko (and normally I wouldn’t invest that amount of money into a hobby of mine). Which means, I am standing by and waiting for news from the OpenMoko community…<\/p>\n

In the meantime, if you understand German, you could listen to this very interesting Chaosradio Express Podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On YouTube there are some very interesting videos about the Neo 1973<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
