Of course I am unfair. It is nice that motorola ships linux-based
cellphones, but they made really sure that users can't hack
them... which is considered anti-social by the community. 

So it would be nice if kernel matched requirements by Motorola, but it
is *way* more important that it matches requirements by Sharp and
notebook requirements... because Sharp & notebook manufacturers
actually play fair.
