Just add a slidy-out keyboard or not, as you prefer. Who needs Nokia, I'll go get a soldering iron and do it myself.

Can I have one of the 999 you are not using from the batch of 1,000 you order?

[Rebski]

Of course.

watch out for buglabs. http://www.buglabs.net/

Yeah I just put this up as a tongue in cheek fantasy.

I am bemused by the proliferation on the forum of wish lists, suggestions, criticisms etc. as to what Nokia should do, not do, doing wrong and so on that a diy kit seems to be answer.

I have checked out Bug, great find BTW, and forget everything else I just want the Teleporter module that is out early 2008. At last we have some real technology progress that Apple hasn’t patented first.

Can’t wait.
