Issue new Openmoko FreeRunner canceled

Head of Openmoko Sean Moss-Pults (Sean Moss-Pultz) at a conference in Switzerland said that the development of a new version of smartphone FreeRunner will be discontinued. Recall, the existing model of Neo FreeRunner smartphone based on the operating system Linux, all software for this device is open. Basically, this model is interesting for developers, but for the mass is not suitable. At this time, only sold about 10 000 copies of Neo FreeRunner.

It was assumed that FreeRunner new generation will be running an operating system Android. The network even entered the rumors smartphone features, among which - 2.84-inch touch VGA-display, wireless modules, GPS, and microSD-slot. But now, perhaps, to expect the release of the new items are not accounted for. Company Openmoko has reduced nearly half of the state. According to Sean Moss-Pultsa, now, to "stay afloat", the company will develop another. Perhaps the creation of smartphones will be resumed at a later date.
