Hi-Mobile.net sent us in an unlocked iPhone for testing. We used the iPhone for almost a month now and it's time to write an editorial-type article on the... unlockiness of it all.

I agree. The target audiences and motives of the companies behind the iPhone on one hand and WinMobile/Crackberry/Treo on the other are different, and probably always will be, so I don't see how their focus and thus overall implementation will change much.
So while OpenMoko may take years to become usable, and it may suffer from lack of a single, deep-pocketed benefactor and lack of focus, it is hard to dismiss because it seems to be the only thing out there that has the potential to be (almost) everything to (almost) everyone.
Heh...OpenMoko's interface can't be any worse then Verizon's. [And they're so arrogant about it that they replaced the standard WinMobile interface on the Moto Q with some monstrosity they cooked up - to appeal to the gen-Y crowd I guess.]
OT: $25 a quarter for a cell phone? Emergency use only? Zen-like discipline? Lost it a few months back?
