Will the custom software be open-sourced? For custom ROM development, etc, at least for just the Robin?
 
Android is open source, the custom modifications normally aren't. Whether Nextbit is going to change that is something we'll just have to wait to see.
 
Found this quote on the website....
"No barriers.

Robin comes with an unlocked SIM, so you can choose the right carrier for you. And because we think what you run should be up to you too, we’ve made it as easy as possible for you to customize Robin. Its unlocked bootloader and open source drivers make it easy to load CyanogenMod or any other ROM you want and Robin will still be under warranty."

I really hope that means that it will at least release the apk or whatever, if not open source...
