Subject: OpenMoko phone

it will be most interesting to see if
the OpenMoko phone can get FCC type approval.
without that, it isn't legal in the US.

cellphones are transceivers in licensed services
and *must* have FCC type approval to be imported,
offered for sale, or used. Historically, the FCC
has been utterly indifferent to wailing and lamentations
regarding these requirements.
