short update:
the paypal issue got solved since some 6 weeks.
Let me officially welcome Hellekin as our new crew member who will take care about website updates and newsletters, blog, etc, so updates should soon start to come more frequently and more joy to read.
Besides contracting Hellekin and introducing him to the Neo900 internals, I've also been busy with taxes, and with our generous sponsor - more on the latter in a week or two maybe.
Then Werner and me worked on refining several of our whitepapers that serve as specs for the design. We also resumed sourcing those 250 N900.
for R&D of the prototype I'm still stuck at deciding which is the best way ahaed, given our complete task assignment and project planning got a tad scattered by GDC not doing the proto_v2 layout. Since this is a decision with long term severe implications, I need to carefully evaluate all options we have.
Newsletter by Hellekin soon to come, with more.
cheers

I actually dreamt, a few nights ago, that the Neo900 was out. I remember very accurately trying to see how thicker it was compared to my good ol' N900. Now I'm sad.
I know we're far from release, and there are still issues to solve plus others will appear before we can have a clear view on the future, but do we have a rough estimate of the release year? If the team is reluctant towards saying anything in public in fear that it would be taken at face value by readers and then be the ground for complaints, then even a very rough estimation kept off the record by PM would be fine with me. :>

heh, that went from 'reassuring' to 'deeply worrying' at rocket speed

So I open this thread and your post lies first right in front of my eyes. Is the Neo900 team experimenting with massive brain control?
Now I'm legit scared.

To cut the long story short, I'm a bit stuck with a bit of trouble reflashing my N9 (mainly due to Nokia servers supporting the firmware being shut down and lack of time to search for alternatives), yet trying to find a solution to backup my contacts, personal files, etc. At the moment re-using my wife's old Palm Pre which is usable but not really my cup of tea, after having used N900 and N9.
So, Joerg, is there any more specific date you are trying to aim at with the release of your Neo900? Give us at least some info whether it might be 2nd, 3rd of 4th quarter of 2016, please! I dare to think rather of 3rd and 4th ones although I really would like to make a note in my diary... Thanks.

I guess the software part might take longer to be 100% operational.

Do you have any blog or any video in order to show how much progress that Neo900 have made now?
Thanks
