Run away! Run away!
No 3G please, just makes it even more expensive and I wouldn't use it at all.

My question is: why?It is not planned to have a phone earpiece (placing the Pyra to your ear).
Kind of agree.My question is: why?
Still, if this is cheap and it fits, would be nice to have.Because the Pyra is trying to put a bus load of features in a prius sized container.. there is only so much room.
The Pyra is not a primary type of device. It's design to be more than one thing.Also the Pyra was never intended to be a phone as such. Yes, it can be used as such, but it's not the primary function, and not what it was designed for.

It's not because it can do everything it means it's practical for all purposes.The Pyra is not a primary type of device. It's design to be more than one thing.
Not trying to be rude, but this is relevant to my post how?It's not because it can do everything it means it's practical for all purposes.The Pyra is not a primary type of device. It's design to be more than one thing.
All we are asking for is a mic and speaker which are probably best place on the lid. The software is going have to be donefor the 4G/3G regardless of it.Designing a good phone takes a lot of work (as evidenced by manufacturers spending millions developing new phones that are still not as good in terms of call quality as an old nokia). From preventing feedback from the speaker to the microphone, to noise cancelling ambient, it's a combination of device shape, microphone placement and software.
Except the fact they are giving you the option to use it as a phone.It's entirely understandable that ED and GTA04 wouldn't want to take on that responsibility, and would rather make not-a-phone than a bad phone.
We can also use a phone, which both are defeating the purpose.We can after all plug in a headset (either physically or via bluetooth) and experience a properly designed headset experience - assuming it's possible to not only initiate the call but hook up the headset headphones and microphones to that call.
What are you talking about? Link Sounds like "you can use it as a phone" to me.They aren't giving us the option to use it as a phone. They're giving us an open device that can connect to a cellular network, that we're discussing hacking to make it do phonecalls.
Or just pay one and use your phone since you still need carry another device anyway. I don't think you understand theThe difference between plugging in a headset and using a discrete mobile phone is that one uses the same phone contract, while the latter requires you to pay for two. I don't see how the options are comparable at all.
