Hmm. Lots and LOTS of memory there:
"128M of RAM and 64M of flash for running Linux and the applications."

My LG enV VX9900 (this hit the market about a year ago?) has much less.... my phone says it has 16.1 MB. Sure, I'd take a phone that needed more memory if it got me away from BREW-based lockdown used as Verizons UI, but this is pushing towards 10 times the memory.

Oh, wait... The OpenMoko is GSM.... Verizon thinks CDMA is the winner.

You're comparing Flash on the LG with RAM on the OpenMoko. There's no way the LG has 16 MB of RAM! The LG has 16 MB of flash and the OpenMoko has 64 MB, and of course you can install 2 to 8 GB of Flash storage via the MicroSD card in OpenMoko.
