Hi Kellerman,

Running a distribution on a phone can be a challenge because drivers for
the phone component are generally not available. There are some devices
which clearly separate the phone and non-phone sides, and it's easier to
load your own software on that type of device.

Perhaps the Fedora Meego people would have some good suggestions?
