Openmoko: Epic Fail?
In the community of supporters of the Open Source-smartphones of the project Openmoko, quite a dull mood has hung in a long time. And the reasons for this - the mass. But here, it seems, the last drop arrived.
Steve Mosher of Openmoko Inc. in the mailing list, he said that the work on the creation of GTA03 (this is the code name of the next smartphone from Openmoko) is no longer under way.

PS A few details about the fateful letter Mosher'a in Russian published on linuxphone.ru .
