sorry, what i meant was "wide" real world use.  i didnt mean to imply you 
didnt actually test anything.  openmoko is being hacked on around the world.  
ive used the menu system myself on my openmoko (not to say i prefer it -- i 
dont particularly care at this point).  of course, if u-boot did support this, 
i would probably integrate it into the one or two ADI boards that have LCDs 
and keypads.
