Say you get the 200 orders or whatever confirmed number. Is there possibility of extras, or can there be additional production in small amounts or will there only be larger runs?

Aha! I remember my old question: what are the odds of NFC?? I'm doing a lot of home automation with NFC lately. Would be good to move android setup to Maemo!

What about this country-by-county. Is that in the works or postponed?
I also trying to share the link to this thread and http://neo900.org/ as much as possible. I DARE you to do the same.

It would be nice to have an overview somewhere how many of these 700+Euro buyers are actually out there.
You must have this number somewhere, so writing it down (and keeping it up to date) here in the first post or somewhere over at neo900.org would be great.
To my understanding this magical number of 200 is even more important/harder to reach than the 25000 Euro donations bar, and this poll is at least slightly off because some people change their minds (usually to the better for this project).
As for device design, I was serious about that watchdog thing. So if you implement one, please make it optional.
Another thing that would be important to me is a keyboard backlight. So it would be great if at least the LEDs were in the body and worked just like in the N900 or if they had some easily accessible interface (somewhere in the /sys tree).

Asking same questions over and over seems actually stupid, when all the answers are already there.
For the R-TS, until Dos1 can add it to the FAQ, here you are:

Q:Why resistive touchscreen?
A:For the same reasons as above. However, we trully consider resistive touch screen from N900 as superior to capacitive screens, thanks to increased precision and exceptionally good sensitiveness, unlike many other resistive screens. We believe that choosing capacitive screen would be considered a regression by current Maemo and Openmoko power users.
Do this on a capacitive touchscreen:
