Since I was involved in the proposal I can tell you that I never believed that selling price for the image should correspond to the 2nd part of the refund because:

1. We are not legally entitled to any refund so the refund is a nice gesture from Jolla (I know I will be killed for that remark)

2. Getting an SFOS Image would please me more than a refund and would cost way less for Jolla - and I am really interested in promoting SFOS and that means that we need attractive HW to introduce our friends into SFOS (and off course, SFOS still Needs a lot polishing like all the stuff said before, paid apps, good calendar and other PIM stuff, a faster browser ... you name it. And I wish they would support F5122 (Xperia X dual SIM))

3. Selling the image to those interested in SFOS really makes sense because Jolla needs revenues. And off course, providing an image for sale requires that merely everybody can install the image without major skills on his or her own.

From my perspective, Jolla is taking the right turn. Hopefully it will be a road – sorry, a course (I recall we are sailing) – to success.
