surely SE/Nokia/Samsung wouldnt mind us all having a bash at making a phone? its not as if were gonna take over the world is it?
as for copyright issues, no one seemed to have a problem with thingys Moto 8800x modded with a T66?
cant think of his name now, but you know who i mean...

Interesting idea, it would be cool to have a
phone with the esato logo on, say, the battery cover.

Suppose i could always go selling my body 2 or 3 nights extra a week, that should raise some cash.

hmmm reading tranquills post I can see his point. I have to say there is no way we as members can make a phone, I myself was contemplating re manufactuting a moto razr into a sliding phone, and came pretty close (has ideas and plans etc) and was then thinking of sending it to moto, but the main probalem was creating a new ribbon cable (would have had to design and make them with a very limited budget/resorces) in the end It just wasnt feasable.
Now back to the point laffen brought up, we can't go for really unique items such as phone coveres its just not feasable, but what you guys aint thinking about is other esato things. How many people here love buying those SE mouse mats, or for that fact mugs, or pens, hell why not one of those small stickie things that lights up when people ring you with a esato logo on? Honnestly I can see quite a few people wanting this kind of stuff as the S-E stuff is so popular. I myself know of some basic printing services (like pixmania) Prehaps a small markup can be added that way we can rasie some profit and give a lile back to esato? Get some new serveres (in time) or work on a redesign. ALso create some kind of moto or catch line I dno
We could ask for small donations from members to get it up and running, then hold design competitions where the winning designer can have a free item or something?
It would be a great little comunity project and I myself would be willing to help it along, I could raffle some of my smaller bits and donate some of it to "The Esatorian Cause" I also wouldnt mind helping out in the promotion and sales of these goods along with the manufacturing of them .
Whats your thoughts?

excellent idea mate, i too wouldnt mind helping out in anyway i can
Could we request a esato puffer jacket luke? - ok that was a joke, but the things you mentioned sound very suitable matey..
Stickers for cars etc... may be a good idea and a oppertunity to gain on 'free' advertising
i'd chuck a stick in my car
By heck, id even hand a few out for you

perhaps just get some nice little "esato" logos printed on decals/stickers for people to attach to their current cover! or maybe those little flashing led things that go off when the phone sends/reveives calls? just my 2 cents worth... Id buy one
theres one potential customer...
