Hi, If comparing with used phone, i would prefer the HTC HD2 phone, its the only phone that is capable(and having the roms) to run winmo 6.5, windows phone 7, android, ubuntu/meebo(these 2 are not for day to day use). Its possible to dual boot android/wp7 together or run android on top win mo 6.5 See http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=531 and http://android.hd2roms.com/ (look the number of roms it supports!), I'm currently using http://android.hd2roms.com/details/?r=87 Cheers, Zhi Xiong On 16/4/2011 8:11 AM, Martin � wrote: > hi, > > has anyone come accross this yet? > http://www.geeksphone.com/en/ > > it looks like an affordable mid-range android phone and it officially supports > replacing the OS (to install cyanogenmod for example) > > this is also the second model of the company, so this is not likely to > be a fly-by-night operation, even though it seems a bit of a rush > operation: > http://blog.geeksphone.com/2011/04/espanol-el-nacimiento-de-un-movil-o-una-aventura-humana-es-largo/ > (it's translated to english by a human) > > anyways, i am interested in getting one, and i am looking for other > opinions. > > i am basically looking for an affordable phone that has good free software > support. so far the best phone with free software support was the > samsung galaxy s: http://laforge.gnumonks.org/weblog/2010/08/21/ > > the geeksphone zero is about half the price. > > this month introductory price is euro 179 (S$321), plus euro 50 (S$90) for shipping. > since we are outside of europe we get to skip VAT which brings down the > price to euro 152 (S$273). > > i asked them, and they can ship two phones per box, cutting shipping in > half, so two phones can be had for S$320 each! > > i don't think i can find anything comparable in singapore, not even > used. > > thoughts? > > greetings, martin. _______________________________________________ LUGS Mailing list - [email protected] List FAQ: http://wiki.lugs.org.sg/LugsMailingListFaq Info page: http://www.lugs.org.sg/mailman/listinfo/slugnet To unsubscribe send an empty email to: [email protected]
