I'll agree with you and assert that I do not think this is a total scam, take the money and run kind of thing. But it is a black box of unknown. What that unknown is? I guess we will all find out when we get there.
Fair enough - can't argue with that.

Have we decided what EOS stands for yet? I kind of like Ethereum on Steroids. Any other good ones?

Epic Operating System?

Also, the definition of "Eos" in Greek mythology is pretty interesting, given the name of the 1.0 release (Dawn):
"In Greek mythology, Eos is a Titaness and the goddess of the dawn, who rose each morning from her home at the edge of the Oceanus. ( or [héɔːs]; Aeolic Aὔως Aúōs, Doric Ἀώς Āṓs) is a Titaness and the goddess[1] of the dawn, who rose each morning from her home at the edge of the Oceanus.]Wiki entry)
