OpenMoko In Stores On July 4
ruphus13 writes "July 4 will be day when OpenMoko's Neo FreeRunner will be available to US consumers. Being Open Source, it is modifiable down to the core. From the article: 'The FreeRunner is based on a GNU/Linux, and it will initially ship with basic software to make calls, send and receive SMS, and manage contacts. But the company is encouraging users to write and install their own applications. Software updates will add features to the phone over time, and the company said an August update will enable location-based services.'"
About your signature... ...there's nothing sad or shallow about wanting to be proud of one's country. The past 43 presidents the US has had have been white. Some were great, some were bad, most mediocre. Seeing as how the US has survived the worst presidents we've had even if Obama is just as bad as Bush it would still be inspiring to have our first black president. We'd get there even before the snooty French and other assorted European nations.
Don't really know why you are unable to grok this. Are you a highly skilled IT professional? Possibly afflicted with Aspergers syndrome? The lack of emotional perceptibility that comes with Aspergers might be why you can't see why Obama's candidacy is inspiring so many people.
