Personally, I'm not going to give $600+ to some place for a pre-order of a completely unproven product.
And that's well within your right. The people who have pre-ordered obviously don't mind sending money for an unproven product. So what's your point? Are you trying to warn people? If so, why? Are you just making these posts as a precursor to an "I told you so" post, when the time comes?
