Re: Rear-facing camera or go home

OK, so now I've had a chance......

More than Android, runs Linux too

Rear camera is an optional extra ($49)

Lights in fold can be programmed to show caller or whatever, not perfect but better then nothing.

Mic and earpiece are already on the back, button on side for answering so you don't need to open it to use it as a phone.

The USP is that it's a fully functioning Linux computer with a decent keyboard and a phone too.

By the way a separate keyboard for a phone in this style wouldn't work because the centre of gravity would cause it to topple backwards and a keyboard pointing upwards is not a lot of use, this device has the battery in the base so it doesn't fall over. An external keyboard with an extra battery might work but I'm not sure if people would want another heavy item in their pockets.
