Will this order be the first batch to go through, or was there a group buy that already went 300+ before us ?
i THINK the european group hit 300 first, though if that matters i don't know.
I'm taking part in that European group buy and if I have understud correctly the discussion in their thread, they haven't sent in their order yet. The operator is waiting for official announcement from friedcat taking orders. Also the operator has been asking friedcat if the devices will have CE-mark, because without that they might be seised in customs. They have collected payments for 153 devices, as can be seen here:

course we're ALSO waiting on friedcat to make the official announcement that he's taking orders.
