i     9 Where to start from?	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    10 There can be two walls preventing every Linux enthusiast from having its own phone with a "Linux Powered" sticker on it:	Err	bitreich.org	70

i    16 application support: writing all the tools that make a plain unix shell useable as a phone,	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    17 that we usually take for granted on a phone operating system.	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    18 It may be as simple as a daemon watching incoming phone call from hardware abstractions (those from in 1.)	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    19 and playing a ringtone.wav whenever a call comes in,	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    20 it still has to be written.	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    21 Same goes for a keyboard application if it uses a touch-screen.	Err	bitreich.org	70

i    29 Maemo Leste is now existing since more than four years, and keeps being developed at good pace.	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    30 It even shines where Android does not:	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    31 it uses mainline Linux kernel instead of forks that never get upgraded nor contributed back to Linux.	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    32 This means that all software officially supported by Maemo Leste might also be available to many more Linux-based projects.	Err	bitreich.org	70

i    35 Of course, there are non-official porting efforts for more hardware underway to become a completely supported target.	Err	bitreich.org	70

i    43 The support for the inexpensive PinePhone means you can get a fully working linux phone in your pocket.	Err	bitreich.org	70
i    44 Grab it while it is hot, the lack of bloated prebuilt application forced into it by the vendor means it will not catch fire!	Err	bitreich.org	70
