1. Do you think the market and community is ready for FPGA Litecoin?

Yes!

2. Is there definite interest in FPGA Litecoin machines? Would you buy one if the price was reasonable? What is reasonable?

Yes!  It would have to have a significant price performance advantage over the nextgen AMD GPUs coming in the fall.

3. Would you pre-order one to support first round funding for prototyping and first wave production?

Yes, well really it depends - no BFL situations.  2 month lead time max.

If specs are right I would order a few, I know many others would also.
