I am curious how many people did sign up for their preorder campaign. It can potentially tell a lot about their likely success.

Especially for 100€ choice, there is NO MENTION of the OH, except in the title (I think they have not changed, but they will). Maybe the limited time period already expired? I wonder if Dave got his pre-order placed.

I really WANT to preorder... but the 100€ won't let me (United States) and really if you think about it, the 100€ already pays for 100€, so while you're taking a bigger risk of wasted money, you get more for it in the end. Basically you'll be paying 439€ for the phone if you preorder the 40€.
The other problem is that they still haven't stated it'll even work with US carriers (I'm using T-Mobile).
So I could get a really cool, only partially useful device.
So there really should be more specs, namely SIM slot size, supported frequencies, and they need to extend the country availability (though I understand why they don't). I would go for the no-cost preorder, except I kind of want the Limited Edition one

I believe in their success.

I'm not sure I ever will be a phone smaller than 5 inch again. They are superior. Next time I'm buying a smaller screen it will be a disc phone clock.

Or maybe the offer hasn't changed either, but they realized the original description looked like they're gonna give away a hw keyboard OH or similar, instead of a special colored cover they planned...
