OpenMoko - homegrown cell phone from the ground up

I always love projects like these. A coworker tipped me off to this project a few weeks ago and I have been watching it from afar ever since. To a certain extent, you could think of it like a 'Heathkit' for a cell phone. Everything associated with it is very barebones and developer-kit like, but that is part of the charm of it all.

I am almost afraid of looking into it more, because knowing the way I am with 'fun projects', I will end up with a developer's kit and will be hacking away at the code to help make it more usable.

Must resist the temptation.
