MyOSS October 2008 Meetup – Ole Tange on the OpenMoko Mobile Phone

Taken from http://foss.org.my/projects/meetups/october-2008/myoss-oct-2008-meetup-openmoko

Special guest speaker Ole Tang will talk about OpenMoko, the GNU/Linux distribution that runs on the free phone Neo Freerunner from FIC

OpenMoko is the GNU/Linux distribution that runs on the free phone Neo Freerunner from FIC. It is completely Free Software. Being able to completely control a cell phone gives new possibilities that people only dreamed of.

Have you ever had a mobile phone where you have been annoyed by some of the functionality and thought: "If only I had the source code I could have fixed this annoying thing"? Then you are not alone.

The phone Neo Freerunner from FIC runs a completely free operating system. Because it is free it is possible try out completely new ideas - even ideas that the phone companies make no money from. The presentation will be about the possibilities and how you can take part in this revolution.

Date: Friday 10th October 2008
