I found the bit on the ow Owasys model to be quite interesting and promising - especially the fact linux is being used as the OS and they appear to be incourage public development. Hey, I cannot find anything anywhere on the Audiovox 9900 phone that would supposedly be available this month. I looked on www.audiovox.com and their idiot search tool kept saying "no such model." Is it really out there yet or is it vaporware? On Thu, Dec 25, 2003 at 11:05:00AM -0500, Janina Sajka wrote: > OK.
