IIRC the boot loader is non-free, and the userspace daemon that monitors the battery charge is non-free. I don't remember if the wifi driver needs a binary blob or not.

nokia open source drivers Posted Oct 19, 2007 12:02 UTC (Fri) by dlang (✭ supporter ✭, #313) [Link] that doesn't sound bad. I'm willing to live with non-free userspace tools, and if the binary blob for the wifi is for the firmware of the card (as opposed to the driver) I'm fine. the bootloader could be an issue, but I'd have to see what options there are (and what capabilities the bootloader has. as long as it can boot my own kernels I don't have heartburn with the concept)
