    Maybe we’ll see more donations regarding Linux mobile? The development needs to be even faster now.

      I’m afraid the carriers will just stop allowing devices on their networks unless they’re approved and locked down with a spy ROM.

        Well then no compliance. I’ll take a dumb flip phone if it came to that. And with tethering I can use whatever I damn well please behind it.

        It’ll be their own downfall. Telephony is handled perfectly fine through tcp/ip. So if carries don’t support it, we’ll start seeing components that turn the phone part of phones to Internet connectivity modules.

        Sadly that’s a high possibility, though I hope it won’t come to that or at least there would be a network that allows this.
