    Always nice to see new Android devices, although people will always have their own preferences!

    though im not a big fan of the design of Android devices, im a big fan of the technology and they’re names. Neo FreeRunner. That’s a pretty cool name, for sure. It’s got a Blade Runner/Matrix/Renegade thing happening. Pretty Cool.

    Yeah, this kind of looks like crapoloa, but Neo Freerunners are all types of open source goodness. You can even change the hardware if you want.
