Hello Luke,

I am a bit surprized about your harsh reaction, but do not want to open a 
discussion about fairphone. 

You are right, that they started with a task, which is gigantic, but they 
learned and hopefully will learn more. Some aspects which are for ME 
important:

- they will offering an update of the os for the fairphone I. I has been hard 
work as they made mistakes in the beginning, but they succeeded. For my two 
years old LG-D855 there is no update in sight.

- they offer a google-free android for the fairphone II and it will be possible 
to install other  OSs like Sailfish or Ubuntu mobil. They try to built a 
community

- they got 10 points on ifixit for the easy way to repair it and their modular 
construction.

- the are using more conflict free minerals and there are better working 
conditions in as with the great players. 

Do you know any other smartphone, which is a better choicel than the 
Fairphone?


Wolfgang
