Qi charging is exciting, since between WinMo and iPhone I've been using nothing but for a couple years.

Sad to see the keyboard delayed, that's an ambitious piece of hardware to build and one I am super excited about.

The F(x)tec Pro is the modern phone I want from a hardware standpoint, but it ships with Android. Apparently there's a Sailfish image available, but I'd have to flash it myself and I don't like buying phones preloaded with Android.

With the (currently) poor battery life, I agree, Qi charging is exciting. I sit at my desk a lot so can easily throw the phone onto the charger.
