Hi Otto,
Do you know about openmoko? http://www.openmoko.com http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Main_Page
I do not have any experience with it but it has been in existence for a while now and I would hope it actually functional by now. In any case, it meets your desire for open, top to bottom (and back).
Let us know if you have any success with that device.

Recently I looked at RjDj and was well impressed. Now I want to get a mobile device on which to run Pd to do similar things. An iPhone is out of the question because it's such a closed and locked up platform. I started looking around at other devices, but that was a bit overwhelming.
Maybe it's just because I'm new to the world of mobile computing and have missed something, but I couldn't find a single mobile hardware/software platform which is properly Free/open from top to bottom (i.e., friendly to people who don't mind getting their hands dirty), actively maintained, doesn't require me to screw myself over by taking on a contract which I can't afford (internet tablet would be ideal), and runs Pd. Is PDa still being developed?
Am I asking for too much? Or is what I want already out there?
