    Pick me.Pick me.
  • I'm trying to find a Google Android phone in SA, and this is the closest I've got so far :)
  • Really like the phone Rafiq. Tried a few friends phones running Android and very impressed.
  • A friend of mine is running Android on the HTC Hero and after using it for a few minutes I was really impressed and the responsiveness, speed and usability of the OS (even though the TouchFlow stuff was courtesy of HTC)- the fact that you can actually multitask makes it a more attractive option to me than the iPhone or iPad even.

    That phone looks pretty sweet! Been toying with custom roms on my Universal for a while - still waiting for an android rom for it, but this OpenMoko looks like its going to be the new phone to customize :)

    OpenMoko? Mo 'ko in Filipino is "me". So OpenMoko can be translated as "you open me". Mmmmmm... love to have and "open" that phone myself
  • Zachary Williams
    I wanted a Freerunner when back when I thought that their OS would succeed. Too bad, but its still a nice phone!
  • iamspam
    It's a little disappointing that a phone called an Android doesn't yet look like Summer Glau in the Terminator TV show. Oh well, give it a few years and the tech will catch up.
  • As an avid iPhone user - I can't really imagine switching over. However, I've never used Android and my curiousity is boiling over. So, yes. Comment.
  • amybiggs
    Wining would be cool as I never win anything and I love checking out new things. Besides this phone seems to be the next big thing!
  • I seriously want one of these bad boys! Like SERIOUSLY! Plus my current piece of rubbish n78 is on its last legs! :(
  • Dick
    its sexy and it works

  • Clinton
    WOW it will be great to own a OpenMoko Neo Freerunner mobile phone! I love technology & gadgets. They help me on my journey of discovery in the wwworld and what better way to discover it than with the world's first "open" phone.

    I need a new phone! Thanks Rafiq. Its the iPhone vs Google Android. I hope to get picked.
  • ahmedakg
    I am a very big fan of Android but unfortunately i cant afford one cuz i'm very poor. Sigh! I wish I get it some day.
  • Jasapple
    I dont mind taking one...this phone looks amazing!
  • Paul
    If I win, I promise to use my Google phone for good and not evil.
  • Reagen Allen
    Wow, great stuff Rafiq. I'm betting big on Android in 2010, following suit to many mobile makers.
    Forget Linux versus Mac OS X versus Windows 7. The real battle in 2010 is going to be on mobile phones. And most players I think the battle will be in Android. I would love to have the opportunity to own one. I feel undressed without my Mobile on me, soon I will feel undressed not having an Android phone. So glad to stand a chance in winning one via WebAddiCT(S) Keep up the good work Reagen ( @ReagenAllen via Twitter)

    the OpenMoko Neo Freerunner (wow, that's quite a mouthful) sounds quite interesting, can't help but think it was a prelude to the Nexus One, which has clearly become all the rage... that said, i'd still be over the moon to own an OpenMoko - Google It!
  • Here goes nothing!
  • My friend is a developer on freerunner and has this,
    Nice phone - but has lot of technical problems.

    Wish I could get one too.
  • tushartajane
    greatttt . . waiting to explore it. thanks for an opportunity. :)
  • Hey Rafiq,
    Seeing as I've tweeted and FB the post, a comment might just win it for me. ; )
  • andreaskaravantos
    i've been waiting for a phone like this something out of this world from the looks of it... sorry all u people will have toup date boo hoo... the future has come in our pockets
  • Now this is a mobile I need to get my hands onto! I've done the N97 and the iPhone, the last one system worth testing is the Android! :)
  • Mike
    This is my first time hearing about the OpenMoko Neo Freerunner. I'd love a chance to win one!
  • This feels like Christmas all over again.
    It's always exciting reading the Web Addicts blob and this is a post I want to comment to win because I am definitely due for an upgrade.
  • mtheron14
    Rafiq...
    Not to long ago you received a knock on your door with a delivery of a Samsung Android. When you made mention about this I felt the excitement with you.
    I would to love to share that experience :)
  • Great, I have the Hero and must say I'm loving android.
  • Juan
    This is what is all about, trying Google Android on other platforms, not only Android phones! Way to go!
  • @nomadone
    Please "don't" give me the phone, please please, not me, LOL
  • Hey cool, I didn't know people were doing this.
    Yes, I want one of those!
  • Personally I am an iPhone addict, however I can always be swayed.

  • RiaanWest
    Would love to get my hands on that phone - pick me!
  • I love gadgets and new technology, so far when it comes to mobile devices, I have tried out symbian, windows mobile and also my favourate so far the iPhone os. I would love to try out the #android os, without buying it of course.. ;)
  • Percy
    Nice laptop ;o) I got an old'ish powerbook G4 with Ubuntu 9.04 installed. Oh, the fone aint that bad. Dude, compliments of the new year. Code on...

    By the way, when r u giving that macbook away? *hint hint*
  • Love Google Android!
  • Oooh pick me - I donated my upgrade to my wife who promptly had it "re-distributed" out of her pocket... I'll donate it to her but hopefully this time she will hang on to it and she absolutely loves gadgets.

    In fact 99% sure it will make her 2010 in which case she will make MY 2010 so all in all I think it just makes logical sense for me to support you to support me to support the male race?
  • Awesome! New phone :-)
  • Ant
