Linux Smartphones On The Rise

nostriluu writes "I know, some people want their cell phone to just be a cell phone. To those people, I suggest a second hand phone. For those of us who want to cram as much functionality as possible into a device we are going to bother carrying everywhere, there is the promise of the Linux Smartphone. I've had a P800 for over a year now and while it's great (although a brick), I can't wait for a Linux based device to bring the culture of openness and upgradability, as opposed to the intentional obsolesence and $10 for every little utility someone reinvents for "closed" devices."

  1. A760 by zurab · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Does anyone own a Motorola A760? Anyone know what markets it's available in? Judging by the specs, I'd buy one if I could. Any good/bad experiences with it?
