I am glad that over the years my wish list has manifested in a better way than I ever anticipated!<br /><br />Lets go through the list, just for fun<br /><br />* 3G check<br />* User pluggable SIM card - I'm not sure why I said this but check<br />* Expandable Memory - No go but who cares. Not that important.<br />* Custom App - check via App Store<br />* Voice recognition menus/Dialing - Siri<br />* Skype - Skype & Facetime<br />* IM - iMessage (unlimited & free)<br />* Flash & Java - No go.

Neo base costs $300 and the advanced is $450. I'm sure you knew already.<BR/><BR/>Hope it would catch on. I'm glad OpenMoko is here. I'm not too much impressed with Trolltechs Qtopia Greenphone which is not this open and costs more (starting at $695).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03708879688644127067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947964.post-28687168786251803032007-07-03T00:25:00.000-05:002007-07-03T00:25:00.000-05:00Well what I meant was, first most ppl in the US bu...Well what I meant was, first most ppl in the US buy their phone from the Mobile operator, and there are only a handful of them, and those operators only carry a small number of models. They also CDMA and other proprietary networks which means your stuck with the phone you get with the operator. There are also a plenty of LAN lines and Cell phone penetration isn't as much as in Asia/Europe. So the iPhone might be a BIGer deal to them that it would be to us, give the limitations.geekaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16681603430019235684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8947964.post-48371965161335828972007-07-02T18:42:00.000-05:002007-07-02T18:42:00.000-05:00You might have noticed my... derogatory comments a...You might have noticed my... derogatory comments about the iPhone in other blogs.<BR/><BR/>I'm not a fan of it. Stupid Product. Stupid Company. <BR/><BR/>And people in the US don't have crappy old models dude! The new ones are just cheap. Unless, of course, you were saying it tung in cheek...
