Neo1973: long-distance contender to Apple and Google?
,----[ Quote ]
| Some people have compared the Neo1973/OpenMoko project with Nokia's
| Maemo/internet tablet initiative. Big differences exist, however. Starting
| with the fact that the Nokia device is a tablet only (it does not have GSM or
| CDMA capability), and extending right to the actual creation of the devices
| themselves. According to Nokia's vice president of convergence products
| multimedia Ari Virtanen "the N810 as well as its predecessors, the N800 and
| the 770 Internet Tablet are the only devices ever developed to be internet
| native from the ground up."
