I picked up the latest issue of Linux Journal today when I saw the Neo1973 on the cover. I havent had a chance to read it but I will update this post later after I do. I glanced at it, and it seems to be a developer interview about the project. Hopefully it will contain some new information since we have been a little bare on the news lately...

For all you Linux Journal subscribers here is the link to the digital issue

Update: I just finished reading the article, and It was mostly about the philosophy of the project, and how they hoped to cause a shift toward open source mobile phones. He talks about the evolution of the project and the community behind it, but no new details are really given. The most exciting thing is that they appear to be in contact with some cellular providers and are trying to make a deal with one to help promote the phone. The article explicitly states that OpenMoko will always be open, but they are looking for a service to help promote the idea of an open source phone.
