Frankly, I regret having bought the FreeRunner, and whish I had bought the 
N810. To me the point of a smart phone is to have a phone that works (and I 
don't care if the phone part is proprietary) on which I can do things like 
running python scripts, for example to update the address book from my LDAP 
database ; I don't have the time, skills nor interest in writing a phone 
layer, and nothing that's available for the FreeRunner is satisfactory.
