| Another Linux-based phone gets announced. This is based on a report on Gupp
| Technologies’ Phreedom VoIP phone which has GSM support running on Linux.
| Phreedom sports a Treo-style QWERTY keyboard, 2.5″ 320×240 256K-color
| display, GSM+GPRS, 320MB memory and 5 hours of talk time in its WiFi mode.
| One would wonder why there are different Linux-based mobile platforms but
| there seems none that can support 3G or HSDPA *and* wifi and VoIP in one
| device.
