the cell phone problem

i am a commited nokia communicator fan and all experiments with other phones ended badly. my first communicator was the almighty 9000i, the oval brick. i used it as my mobile office back in the times in austria. since then i had all the line up till the 9500 (skipped the 9300 of course) but it is aging and the daily use did his part to mae it look a bit rotten over time.
manu has an iPhone now and that made me think. i am always known for beeing a nonconformist and so the iPhone is a bit of a no go thing for me. i looked arround for the current nokias but the reviews of the new models are quite embarrasing. the GPS does not work, the usability is bad, they are slow ... and the models i would like are simply minimum twice the price of an iPhone.
i looked at the openmoko project, looks nice but far from daily use quality. leves you with the HPC phones but they are all windows based with some linux projects on them that all succ more or less. i found a german project for a communicator like device driven by linux, looked nice but has'nt reached release quality even though announced since 2005.

waiting for the google phone. i guess i have to, the SDK for the new google cel phone platform should be available next week and then i hope that there are some early hacks for existing phones soon ... or i have to go with the E90 ... who knows.
