Pro-Linux users which are avid GPS enabled phone fans that are adamant about using Linux on all devices with an OS can now continue supporting open source solutions by purchasing the Neo 1973 from OpenMoko. It is in fact dubbed as the anti-iPhone with all the hype about iPhone these days, what more now that iPhone is known to not have GPS. A very tempting announcement has been made to the open source community from OpenMoko which reads:
In our factory in China, 400 Neos are waiting for you all. Another 600 will be ready before next week. More are queued up waiting for us to say go…
…Starting July 9th, we will launch openmoko.com and start taking orders.
There is going to be two models which will first be made available to developers and finally released to the mass market in October. One model, the Neo Base will go for $450 while the Neo Advanced will cost $600.
