Well not exactly.

First, oFono is signaling middleware; it does not, and never will include its 
own user interface.

Second, certain things are still to be implemented, such as GPRS (working on 
it).

Last, some stuff might not be do-able, due to interference with the existing 
N900 cellular stack. SMS reception is one known case (and SMS sending fails 
too as a side effect). Audio path has not been investigated, but likely would 
fail too.
