That is where I found the pic originally.

Re: Purism Librem Phone
 

Just heard from Purism. I've been assigned Evergreen, which was my first choice. Should ship by March 31. Might as well have said April!

EDIT: One more thing. The email says this is my "estimated" batch. What ever that means...

Re: Purism Librem Phone
 

also just got mine.
evergreen. my choices were 1chestnut, 2dogwood, 3birch...

ordered 2017-10-14

Re: Purism Librem Phone
 

I got the same thing as above, my estimated batch is Evergreen. I don't remember what my preferences were except that I put C first. I guess I could search for that email, but being a masochist I use KMail where searching usually doesn't work.

Re: Purism Librem Phone
 

I think what is happening is that the current state of the phone is not so good and that the incremental improvements from birch to dogwood will not cut it either so they are pushing most folks to evergreen in the hopes that they have worked out most problems by then. As a result, probably releasing a very small number of b through d. Wouldn't be surprised if they try to push or encourage folks to wait for next years version. Not trying to be negative. Just trying to figure out what's happening...

Re: Purism Librem Phone
 

Got some email:
"Your estimated shipping batch:
"Chestnut" Batch - December 3rd – December 31st"

:eek: and :) = :cool:

Ordered:
"Your Purism order receipt from September 8, 2017"

And I had preferences selected like this.
1. Aspen
2. Birch
3. Chestnut

Ha ha! So much for my theory! Looking forward to your review!

EDIT: Maybe they are just sending the latest of your choices for reasons I suggested. But with warning that it might not ne ready for prime time.

Here is their latest post...

Oops! Hopefully nothing else is missing!

Well, at least they are up front about it!
Regardless, they keep plugging along! I'm encouraged!
