Not totally. There are binary drivers. The display driver is nonfree, for
instance.
Sounds like I'm being a fussy GPL 'bigot'? Well, it's enough to mean that you
can't put whatever software you want on it and abandon nokia's offerings.
Which, for a device which no longer gets firmware updates, could be
important.
GPL 'bigots' usually have logic behind their 'zealotry'.
