    Yepp, some of us are literally so desperate to again put good faith upfront and see what will happen.
    Thanks for pointing it out, might save others from disappointment.

    Changing the shipping date is ok, but they say on the website that they will take payment 2-3 weeks before shipping when the device is ready. So IDK why they need payment at the end of July if shipments will start in September. That's at least a solid 4 weeks out. Wouldn't stop me from paying but something is a little off here...
    I also wish they gave us more details about delays. The release date got pushed back, we already know that. Tell us what happened... I guess I can take solace in the fact that we have a release "month" set but even those types of promises are arbitrary. They could easily have another delay and push back again.

    looks like a typical scam.
    They do ask for payment before shipment can be made, which is not so unusual. However, they do not collect payment while the release date is unknown. What they say is they expect to request payments after the release date is confirmed:

    The duration between both expected periods might be long and can be discussed, but the plan is not to get the money before a release date is announced.

    I guess ordering using Paypal (provided they allow this payment method) would be useful if you are concerned, that way you can still open a dispute if it turns out the device is never delivered (or shipped).

    The other side is that PayPal may block the funds just because, and the company may find itself in difficult financial situation.

    True, this happened quite a few times in the past with some crowdfunding projects, like, say, Neo900. I still hope they will offer this payment method as one of the options, it would help if some buyers are concerned about getting their device delivered. But yeah, if everyone place their purchase using Paypal, that might be a significant issue.

    Guys, don't worry...
    If people don't want to pre order, that's fine. Just don't let other users down with you just because you don't want it.

    You need to understand that no one is actually pre ordering it, but pre reserving it. As far as I know, it will have a EU warranty on it, so I don't know what the fuss is all about... why people are still wining about it...

    Just wait and let them give a proper release date, than they can take my money before shipping.

    I'll be sure to tease others who did not buy the device over here...
    By the way, Applied on the beta as a well!
    Good luck everyone!

    That's all for now.
