Supp0rtLinux writes "According to this article over
at Linux Devices and noted on here at NewsForge.com,
Motorola has released a newer version of its A76x line
of cellular phones. This newest release, the A768, boasts
of open source softwares from Monta Vista Linux, Trolltech,
and Sleepycat. The only downside is that it appears
to only be available in China right now.
And the older A760 released last August is still only
available in Europe and Asia. Why are we in the U.S.
always the last to get new cellular toys? The good news,
though, is that with a Linux base and an integrated
PDA and MS Office file compatibility, at least syncing
this to either a Linux system or a Windows one should
be fairly seamless. (A760 Review)"
