Turns out those nagging suspicions years ago was right.

I got an email this morning, turns out those people like me who pre ordered the open pandora back in 2007-8 were scammed.
Well most of them anyway.
The email is from the person who runs a hobbyist website and store where you were able to pre order it, he was part of the team.
Other than the fraction of the money from the pre-orders that were used to produce a few units, it turns out i was right in thinking they took pre order money and then promptly 'forgot' about some of the pre-orders so they could pocket it.
I have already long since given up any thought of getting my hands on it, and I should of seen it was too good to be true to begin with..
Looking back at all the delays and inept handling of the situation i can see though they, openpandora ltd, never intended on doing what they said.
According to the email, well over 500 pre orders were never filled. And I suspect they had no intention of fulfilling.
The person then gave me a choice, I can pay 100 to 300 MORE to get one of the original returned units or a clock speed increased one or for free wait for a possible later one..
Chose the option that means no more money goes to these jokers.

Class action lawsuit. It;s bound to happen at this point and to be honest I hope it does.
