It will be interesting to see how much U.S. interest there is in an iPhone and (Google) Android alternative that packs sustainable and ethical smarts.

It'll only take off if it's competitively priced and supports every carrier. Until then I don't think it'll sell well. But I'll definitely look into it next time I have to get a new phone.

I just looked aroundon their site a bit, and it looks like they are pretty competitively priced by selling upgrades to next gen for 70 dollars (fairphone 3 to 4 core or something)

Yeah only supports T-mobile for now, which kinda sucks because I do my damnedest to stay out of the city where T-mobile seems most focused.
