In continuation of the recently raised habrotopik about “open source hardware”, I want to share the news that we just discovered.
The Canadian CRC (Communications Research Center Canada) created a prototype of the first device based on the Openmoko project Neo FreeRunner open smartphone. It was called Openmokast , which explains its main feature - this phone is equipped with access to broadcast data broadcasts (datacasting).

You can look at its program interface on LinuxDevices.com and on Openmokast.org .
Openmokast will show the public at IBC 2008, which will be held in Amsterdam (Holland) from September 12 to 16.
