I have over £200 invested in this and starting to feel uncomfortable.
No real updates for months.

Many are in for that sum or less..
many are in for more..
I am.
I understand your concern.
I do not believe concern over the state of the stability of the project is merited just yet.
I would advise patience.
Our guys may not be daily vocal spouting how grand things are going when in fact I believe they are doing their best currently trying to work the issues out with paypal...
I believe everything will work out fine.
But patience and support while the team does what is needful to get the monies which are due them.....
from us...
released from paypal...
so they can continue the next phases of the project.
The guys have been upfront, forthright, honest and transparent.
Until the moment that they (may) say "we cannot complete the project"... (and I believe if they EVER got to the point of having to say THOSE words ..it will be because they did EVERYTHING possible and impossible to make the project succeed including selling relatives, bribing state officials, leaning on organized crime, ransoming neighbours pets, making various angelic AND demonic deals ..and other completely and perfectly fine methods of ensuring success...and STILL could not pull it off...)
I believe that everything will work out fine.
I also believe that they would not hold out and say nothing whilst there was the possibility that project collapse was imminent.
The team would not do that either.
Their track record has spoken for their reliability and trustworthiness.

Niel, but that is only about status with paypal.

I also miss a bit more verbosity about technical progress here on TMO.
For that I would like to point interested people to channel #neo900 on freenode.

And it was clear from the beginning that it is a crowd funding project. So it may just fail or fade away ...
BUT even that one takes huge time I am also more confident than over the sailing ones (which I did not expect to happen from a company).

what are YOU talking about. How is that in any way an update on the status of the project to get the neo900 into production? As far as I can see it's just talking about paypal. Or did I miss something?

The situation with the reservations clearly affects the progress. They lack quite a bit if the funding to continue.

Forgive me but where is it stated that the 'situation with the reservations' is affecting the progress?

You are implying that there is a funding issue that is holding up progress and that this is being caused by the 'situation with the reservations'.

What does that mean exactly?
Where can I read all about this in plain English authored by a project member?
