Are you related to the Mayor of NYC? He also wanted to protect the citizens from risk and ban large sodas for the idiots that drink it like water. It would seem if someone wanted a device bad enough, they are willing to take the risk. But you are correct, the person bearing that risk, should make sure the seller will provide a refund if the units don't ship and they receive a refund themselves. It's hard to do that with a level of trust, I'd require full contact info of the seller.
Well, I don't drink gallons of soda.... or I disagree with doing so would be a better way of putting it. I also don't go around slapping big gulps out of people's hands either
Nor do I walk around extinguishing the cigarettes of smokers. I just disagree, so what? It's not like my opinion really changes anything. C) Who the hell am I anyway?? No reason to start any kicking and/or screaming just because I disagree. I obviously can't stop anyone from selling or buying the pre-orders, is there some reason that I should not be allowed to just have an opinion?
