I'm a fan of that project, but even they have issues with proprietary drivers. I ran into Karen Sandler at Linuxconf.au and she's now using an S3 with Replicant, but if you look at their device page for the S3:
You'll see there is still some proprietary driver code (wi-fi, bluetooth, GPS for example).
I honestly don't think there is enough of a demand for a totally free handset for us to see one in the near future, which is a shame because I'd buy one.
