The open source Linux phone - the Neo FreeRunner fromopenmoko is now on sale... It's open source software (not hardware) to be specific, but they *do* have the CAD files which is a great first step! ... Currently there isn't a 100% opens source phone yet (that I know of).

Openmoko, developer of the first open mobile computing platform today announced it will open the online store for purchase of the Openmoko Neo FreeRunner, a mobile device that the company says will help to enable ubiquitous computing for the 21st century.

The new software, debuting at Linux world in August, will provide exciting new location based applications.

Openmoko frees developers from constraints of closed mobile architectures so they can apply the power of mobility and a flexible development platform to create mobile applications for specialized markets. Using the Openmoko mobile platform, the Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) community and developers can create unique versions of the FreeRunner phone, modifying the way the phone operates and even the way it looks.
