It may be expansive but what is the open alternative to Neo900, and how much does it cost ?
Even if I still haven't ordered anything, and I may never use my coupon, I'm anyway happy to have contributed to this project.

Actually, I would even feel a little guilty if I get an opportunity to spend this amount, helping this project to succeed and I don't.
Beware, I'm not saying, everybody should blindly donate (not everyone earn the same salary and is able to pay such a sum) but the price can't fairly be directly compared to market products.

I mean, 1k€ is not only the price for a great new device, but it is the price for a totally open device (software AS hardware), made by an independant structure, with privacy and security concerns.
And it's the price to make this project work, which hopefully means other similar independant projects may work beyond this one.

You may think it's overpriced and Neo900UG could have lowered this priced by doing such or such thing. Somehow, I personally think they should have worked to make know the Neo900 to far more people.
But it doesn't really matter. Today, it's the price ! And according to Joerg, it's a maximum price, so it may decrease but CAN NOT increase further.
So your choice should just be the result of an equation beween your bank account and how you value the possibility of such a device to exist / how much you are ready to spend to get one.

Whatever happens now, I'm happy to have donated and I sincerely wish the Neo900 will be released, wether I buy it or not !
