Heard this company was involved in major scams

It would be nice if companies like this came out with a budget model so more people could participate in supporting their products. Lotta poor folks into FOSS.

From what I’ve read and listened to, they’re misleading in this report when they say all crowdfunding backer devices have been fulfilled/delivered.

As someone who requested a refund, I can confirm to have neither the phone nor the refund :(

I feel that pain, but probably not to the same degree. I’ve backed over 300 campaigns on Kickstarter and Gamefound. I’ve had around 8 that didn’t fulfill and didn’t give a refund – somewhere in the vicinity of $500-800 worth overall. It’s maddening when it feels like our money was either stolen or at best, wasted.

True, i kinda only ordered it to support mobile Linux development, however, by now I think there would have been much better places to do this than this company.

Fantastic! Love to see FOSS companies winning! Maybe someday soon Puri.sm will come out with a phone that doesn’t massively suck

I haven’t looked at there stuff in while. They have really compelling devices. There a bit too pricey for me at the moment.
