Well what is 50% of the state? Rocks and dirt, maybe some rattlesnakes. 
All the populated areas are nicely covered.

The OpenMoko has JUST been approved for mass production, and then 
they'll figure out how to ship it to the distribution centers here (air 
or sea). Once that all gets figured out, and the handsets reach the 
distribution centers, the online store will open.

Dunno about Android, but OpenMoko will only work with GSM providers. 
That's pretty much just T-Mobile and ATT. There are more other, more 
local GSM providers, but they only cover like, metro Phoenix.

Sprint works okay for my family, except that I hate them. Of course, 
what cell phone provider isn't to hate? :D
