OpenMoko's Android-running Neo FreeRunner makes its blurrycam debut
The handset itself is hardly anything new, and we had a pretty good indication that Android was heading its way, but there's still nothing like a few good 'ol fashioned blurrycam shots to make a plan really come together. From the looks of it, the handset doesn't appear to have gone under any major changes for its new Google-fied incarnation, with it still packing the same 2.8-inch VGA display, 400MHz Samsung 2442 processor, GSM and GPRS connectivity as before, plus the usual built-in WiFi, Bluetooth, and AGPS, among other standard fare. Still not word on a price or release date, unfortunately, but according to the folks at iMAndroid, that is "just around the corner." In the meantime, you'll have to make do with the few more equally blurry pics available at the link below.

That screen has quite the high resolution. Check out how small the analog clock is!

Is it just me or are these "blurry cam" picture getting tiring. I mean common. I think anyone that would be taking a picture of a tech item would have at least a 1/2 way decent camera. Shoot, there is even an app for the iPhone that gives you a sharp picture every time. There really is no need for these blurry pics of new products.
On that note, its obvious that they are TRYING to make them blurry on purpose. But to what end?? Really?

ok.. nowadays, digital cameras are pretty cheap and can take pretty decent pictures... there is no reason why this image should be this blurry...
