Hi Jörg,
Sorry to be a pest but I have a few questions...
When I create an account on neo900.org, do I need to use the same email address I used when I placed my original donation? The reason I ask is that I originally created a "goldelico" email alias for my domain when I placed my original donation which now seems somewhat inappropriate so I'd now like to create a new email alias for Neo900 UG.
I understand that one of the features the PLS8-X offers over the modem variants is "Automatic Carrier Switching". Do you know anything about this feature? I'm guessing that it requires dual SIM cards and is therefore irrelevant on the Neo900.
I noticed that the datasheet lists an LTE-only modem variant (PLS8-V). Will this also be an available option for the Neo900?
I also noticed the the maximum download/upload speed for EDGE is 237kbps. Does that imply that EDGE+ (1Mbps DL/400kbps UL) is not supported or is it possible that it simply hasn't been taken it into account on the datasheet?
Will you be testing that the M2M functionality works properly without interference from the modem sandbox? I ask this as M2M hasn't been advertised as a Neo900 feature even though the modem provides it.
Is there anywhere I can read up on the M2M functionality of the modem? I'd be interested to know exactly what it offers. Does it act as an M2M Gateway or an end device with sensors/actuators?
Cheers.

... can we hope running Android applications in the final OS, using an emulator, development SDK or something like that, if the OS actually is Debian?

- I'm not comfortable with choosing the modem variant. I don't even fully understand the criteria that are used to differentiate them in the shop, which is not a good sign. The technical sheets are Chinese to me. Any help would be much appreciated! If it helps, I live in Europe, but if the price is the same for worldwide connection (including Europe), then I'd surely prefer it, as I happen to travel for work, sometimes.
- Is the "End of 2015" ETA a safe estimation? It doesn't need to be very accurate, but I'd like to know if huge delays should still be expected or, conversely, if the main barriers before production have already been passed (except funding, of course).
- I seem to recall that Maemo 5 compatibility would be guaranteed (though I do like the Debian plan too), but I don't find it in the FAQ anymore. Has this goal been discarded?
- What exactly is a down payment? Excuse me but I'm not a native speaker and I'm not quite sure what it corresponds to. If I pay 350€ now (minus the voucher), will I need to pay 640€ later (provided that the price stabilizes at about 990€), or is that just a preorder confirmation worth 350€ but paid only at a later point when the device is available (990€ payment at the end, or 350€ loss in case I leave the ship)?
- Is there a deadline for making the down payment, before the shop is closed/the voucher expires/the expected stock of boards or Neo900s runs low?
Extremely naive question, and I reckon the answer is negative, but asking stupid questions does not hurt: can we hope running Android applications in the final OS, using an emulator, development SDK or something like that, if the OS actually is Debian?

Huge-huge THANK YOU, to every single one of you for the effort, hard work and commitment, keeping it alive!
Got my voucher already but i'll have to wait till the end of the month to top up the down payment for a complete Neo900, as i spent 1k+ for a new laptop last month.
Even N900 is not a "cutting edge" device but a cutting edge device can only dream of an N900's capabilities.
Can't wait to get my hands on Neo900!
Cheers
