If only you could by one! I hope there will be
Python/Ruby/whatever-not-terrible-language bindings so you won't have
to use C (god I hate GObject) to hack it. Of course if someone made
Squeak/Smalltalk/F-Script bindings I would take that as well :)

Cheers

> The summary of the project:
>
> "OpenMoko is an attempt to create the world's first completely open
> mobile phone software stack. [...] OpenMoko is supposed to run on all
> kinds of Linux-capable mobile phones. The first fully supported OpenMoko
> phone is the FIC Neo1973."
>
> The hardware will be available to developers in the next few weeks. The
> first public release will be later in the year. All the software -
> drivers included - is open-source.
>
> Some highlights of the hardware:
>
>  - VGA resolution (480x640)
>  - Touchscreen + stylus
>  - GSM
>  - USB
>  - 266 (?) MHz ARM CPU
>  - 128 MB SDRAM
>  - 64 MB NAND flash
>  - wifi *may* be ready in time for the first iteration
>
> An ideal portable network-enabled squeak machine, perhaps!
