- jrockway 18y agoI have the older version (Neo1973). It works fine; I can browse the web and make phone calls. The browser is WebKit-based, so it's basically like the iPhone browser. Same codebase. But basically, OpenMoko's icons aren't quite as pretty as the iPhone's. I know most people value icons more than their freedom, so that's why the iPhone is doing so well.
- aditya 18y agojr, what image and ui are you running? it's almost impossible to make calls on a 1973 (or FR) from what I've tried so far. FSO (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FSO http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FSO) is the only thing that reliably lets me make calls but that's ALL it does. What're you using?
- allenbrunson 18y agoi really doubt openmoko's browser is like the iphone's. does it have multi-touch? i'm pretty sure it doesn't. that means no pinching, which is a vital part of the iphone experience. and then there's the tired old argument that the only difference is that apple's products are prettier than everybody else's. not so. the difference is that apple's products are more fun to use, easier for people to figure out, and easier to get the most out of.
