by looking at the video I know some of the people in Spain who are involved. They are in Bilbao. We did a consulting project with them in 2009. They are more in the creative educational industry.

I am not sure about the technology, however from look of the video I can say it is mostly aim at non-technology experts, with nice fancy design.

Can I ask what kind of people do we need to design all the chips hardware such as baseband processor, using open source design?

And what are HN opinion on Silent Circle?

Silent Circle is for business use to avoid industrial espionage. If you are an activist or suspected criminal I would imagine they would cooperate with any court order to feed you a malicious update that allows federal access just like Hushmail does. They swear up and down this is impossible but it's a for profit business they arent going to risk it protecting whistleblowers, wanted hackers or enviro activists. Redphone at least you can build it yourself and prevent targeted updates
