The encouragement I had in mind was for folks porting pmOS to various phones.
I agree that end users shouldn't have to worry (much) about technical details.
That said, it may be that each phone will only support certain adapters.  So,
the procedure might be a bit more like this:

* I go to a HowTo page and find a phone and adapter that work together.
* I find a way to purchase them, possibly via Amazon or eBay.
* I have no technical expertise and expect it to just work.
* I ask for help (e.g., on a mailing list) if it doesn't.
