I didn't know of this very interesting project:
Debian of N900
http://elektranox.org/n900/index.html
This guy wants to implement exactly what I described in my rant. Thanks to Qwazik for referencing that in a recent post. I am going to try the thing - might be a step forward in the direction of liberty

I want a Debian phone.
What do you think of such a dream? Naif? Silly? Doable?

If I remind well, old Nokia Communicators (9000, 9110, maybe also the following ones) were said having two microprocessors, one for telephony one for pda. This wouldn't be bad in a modern gizmo, to be sure telephony functions don't get slowed by other activites, and also to be able to turn them on and off independently.
That being said, I assume it's not what you actually meant. I'm thinking, however, we ought to be able to solve the problem a lot more simply, with just a bit of extra ram and some prioritizing(keep the entire phone app locked in ram). It'd solve the problem completely, without having to worry about a second (mostly useless) processor.
