Is there any way to get your hands a dev phone without being a mobile app developer rockstar (I assume they give them away to these guys/girls)? Alternatively is there a method to get your hands on the OS and load it on an android phone to play around with? The simulator is great and all but I love seeing the finished product on an actual phone.

http://www.geeksphone.com/ Went on sale about a week ago. I think they're sold out though

  - shop is down, has a white page saying that the shop will
    be up again "in the following hours"
  - the shop goes live
  - the shop sells out
  - the shop is up, but says "Out of stock" on product pages

Wow, it looks like a really slick OS. I think it'll be neat seeing web-apps as first class citizens - it never made sense to me why we have to use Objective-C or Java just to make some UI or whatever.
