Well here's some simple explanation if you really don't want to try to figure it out, the first image is this device with a debian linux, the second one is with android, and the third one is this device original's, the fourth one..... i think you already figure it out.

OpenMoko NeoFreeRunner is a phone, made purely from Open Source, it used Linux, it doesn't bound you to certain specification, and what i mean by made purely from Open Source, i mean the hardware too, you could download the CAD (Computer-Aided Design) file, and if you somehow manage to get the hardware needed, you could build your own OpenMoko. The software use Linux, just like you see, from Android to Debian work (of course you need to work on it yourself).

So, here is what i actually dreamt since last year, but of course, i don't think i have the ability to work on it. And as far as i know, only http://toko.baliwae.com (http://toko.baliwae.com) who sells this Phone in Indonesia. well, guys, are you bored with modding? why don't try this one?

PS: I forgot to tell, you could dual-boot the linuxes, and you could even boot from SD.

Wow, didn't know there is someone sell it here... :)

Yep, this phone is cool, however, I wonder if this phone is already at production use or still for developer use...

It's already a consumer product, and i though Baliwae still have some in stock.

That's an awesome phone!
Yes Phil, it's really a cool phone, a free thing to mod whatever you like
