A Look at the OpenMoko Audience 3

Lachlan Rogers, one of the five people who got a first.last.name domain name in this world, writes about his feelings when seeing and playing with an OpenMoko phone:

Last night I went along to the Canberra Linux User Group meeting and saw a FIC Neo1973 running OpenMoko. I got to touch it, play with it, listen to it, drool at it, and the end result was basically a mixture of raw excitement and desire.

Uhuh.

About the screen:
The Neo1973 has a full vga display of 640×480 pixels, which is twice the Iphone’s 320×480.

Yeah, real useful on a frickin' tiny screen. Like you can read your console with a screen resolution like that. Does it come with a magnifying glass?
