Just occurred to me. For a device with a selling point that emphasizes privacy and security, maybe folks should not disclose that they bought one! Too late for me!

Unfortunately I am not part of the preordered group. Not really in the mood to back anything else until it's being fully delivered. Twice burned.

https://puri.sm/posts/librem5-progress-report-19/ they write mainly about the SMS application, "Chatty"
Unfortunately it seems that the development boards are not shipped yet (they were delayed to August) as there is no mention of them.

Delays worry me given previous experience. Based on the updates when do folks think the first devices will be shipped out, if at all...

So at this stage its entirely out of purism's hands as to when NXP will decide to actually release the iMX8 properly. All the work purism has done so far as been for an iMX6 development board which isn't really up to the task of running a modern smartphone experience.
