Well, maybe we should get smartphones right before we move on. The n900 was a great start, but then the iOS meme spread like a virus and here we are today. We need to back up and go down the other path. The path where the device was a computer with cell phone capabilities.

I don't wear or want a watch. I don't want a Google Star Trek communicator on my shirt. I wear cargo pants and cargo shorts so I can carry around a computer.

Sounds great. An unlocked Galaxy Note 4 could be the development target device. In pink of course.
