My parents gave me some moneys for buying a new phone for christmas(my current one sux)..
But now i want to buy the ultimate geekphone: Neo FreeRunner
It's an opensource linuxnerdphone, not stable at all, but has a lot of cool gadgetry (wifi, gps, accelerometers, touchscreen), and i can do everything i dream of with it, provided that i has the skillz.
It can run dozens of distributions, the OpenMoko distributions themselves, Qtopia, Android(google shizzle), hell it can even run Debian.
So, should I get myself this completely unusable but fucking awesome geektoy?
E: And if i buy before newyear i get a headset and a bag for it for free!

this is my current phone, bitches don't know about my symbian applications
think I'll stick arch on it with X and autologin and have it open directly in to XBMC, maybe with xfce in a seperate xserver or something for browsing/"general use"
I found out i had a GF2MX with a tvout lying around, so my seedbox will become a htpc(or well, i needs a new TV tbh) aswell when i get back to my flat ^^
Now combine that with openmoko and we're talking remote control awesomeness!
you're a bit late ;(
