I have to note even with the off-topicness of it that the project is not dependent on the company. With gta02-core we are seeing a completely new area being pursued, and in that sense the open hw was really the number one thing Openmoko Inc. managed to create. New companies can arrive to support gta02-core, but also the community itself is able to do further development of new, open phones, created with fully free software tools - which I think is pretty radical in the longer term perspective.
