Adding in part to wicket's query...
Out of curiosity ..
What is the difficulty level in installing the neo board in a n900 shell?
[I've never torn apart an n900 and rebuilt it so I'm completely in the dark on the topic]
Easy?
Moderate?
Difficult?
Tricky?
Challenging?
The answer to this....
may in turn...
make me wish to change up my order to a full device as well before the teams n900 body sourcing is finished ..

@wicket: please log in to shop and send a message asking for upgrade to complete device. I'll cancel your NeoN order and create a voucher for you which you can use to order a complete device
@ensormeans: easy to moderate, I'd say

For those of us who won't be able to make the first batch, the plan is still to order a second batch of N900 parts - albeit with a moderately lower chance of success - in a few months, right.

Are there any future plans for a low budget N900 successor, some kind of poor man's Neo900?
1000 Euro is really something many of us won't afford, especially in poorer countries (for example: in Poland it's 2.5 times as much as the minimal monthly pay and a even more than the average pay. And I know some people earn about 200 Euro per month)
I think Nikolaus is planning to produce yet another batch of GTA04, those are considerably cheaper than Neo900 but also not any sort of N900 successor, despite inheriting some achievements I came up with for Neo900, like the 1GB of RAM which GTA04 will also use now.

PS. actually it's weird: I see two posts of same user, both tagged "Posts: 1" .oO(???) [edit2} oops, 1. post is moderated, whatever that means. Prolly only moderators can see it. funny: the 2nd post says "posts:1. Thanked 1 times in 1 post" and the post has no thanks - but of course I thanked to the invisible post. so no thanks on the supposedly only post of ibero, and yet...
