OpenMoko is moving

Finally I see some movement on Openmoko to say that is trying. I don't have the device but I have it running in qemu as I wrote a long ago.

Some (sub)communities starts movements creating contents with more proximity to the potential clients. Many of us are convinced to support Openmoko because we support free software on our bones, but the world is full of people who doesn't care about that and other techniques are need.

For example this case of an spanish community who are writing a wiki from a non technical point of view, more in a propagandistic way to be proximus to the final user.

Thanks the communities and feel free!

Just for an hour

Yesterday my mobile dies. Dies suddenly and fast. The mobile agonizes during hours until I decide to go to a mobile-shop to acquire the substitute... Just like an hour after this action, a friend announced me the Neo FreeRunner release.

Rage...

OpenMoko in Qemu

The last February, in fosdem, I discover the OpenMoko project. In my humble opinion, it is a great idea: a completely free mobile; an 'Open Mobile Komunications' free software. The hardware in the terms of the firmware, is also free; but I don't know if you can download the hardware specifications to allow you fabricate the hardware also. By the way, I have not knowledge of how to do that.

As far as I can do, following a WikiHowto, I am able to run the phone over qemu!
