    i run wiki2touch on my ipod touch - it's *wonderful*

    you have to jailbreak, and installation is a bit wonky, but once you get it all going properly, it's almost flawless, minus lack of pictures. you use safari to browse so that's always nice, and all the links between articles work.

    it's nice for those who have touches and not iphones. oh and the dump takes up ~4gb so i wouldn't recommend doing it on a 8GB touch.

    Hey, look, everybody, OpenMoko's doing something that makes no sense, but is focused on cramming OSS places in an awkward fashion. Imagine that.

    "Fun fact: it was designed by Thomas Meyerhoffer, who ...helped design the Chumby"

    Yeah. I can see that.

    @GitEmSteveDave_GotOff2HoursEar...: Yeah. I'd buy it if it had "Don't Panic" written on it in large reassuring words.

    At $99 you can pick up a used GPS with more features and funtionality. I personally hate all e-reader inspired gadgets. They will never bridge the gap between smart phones, laptops, and tablets. E-Readers/Ink = Epic-market failure.

    @Michai: Wait there are GPSs that have wikipedia built-in? I'd like to have a GPS that reads wikipedia entries of local landmarks as I drive by them.

    Oh and e-ink is a massive failure for anyone who doesn't read books.

    @pantsonfireliarliar: On the contrary I do read "Books".

    I'm sorry where do you see "GPSs that have Wikipedia built-in?"

    There are many GPS/Media players with more features as well as the ability to browse the web.

    @Michai: I wasn't being sarcastic about that point, I'd really actually buy a $99 GPS with wikipedia built-in. (But seeing as how it was a post about a $99 WikiReader, there'd be no relevant point to posting about a $99 GPS unless it had something to do with Wikipedia.)

    I would have adored this thing in 1998.

    ok, so they are not building any new phones. no biggy. the whole idea behind this phone is the outside FIC contributions. this is a user generated code device. the only reason FIC existed was to assemble the hardware. all the software developments have been happening from the community.
