Hey all... I'm making a VoIP mobile phone that runs Python apps. The firmware will be open. Wanted to share and get the word out. I wanted a phone that lets hackers do what they want (instead of trapping you in a walled garden, huge IDE, non-serviceable design, etc.). The hardware is also meant to be easily expandable: the back of the phone is a PCB that can be swapped out for custom modules. Sort of like project Ara, except it's just a PCB. any hobby-level electrical designer should be able to make their own custom module.
