Hi, What we could do is have a special offer at the next Fosdem. If _everyone_ (thousands of people...) (or 90% of the people there) pledges an $x amount of money, they will get a Free (as-in-speech) phone. That way, you can probably cut down the production cost to a 'reasonable' amount (300-250 EUR apiece?). If there's not enough interest, nobody loses money, but if there is, the cost per phone is a lot lower than in a batch of 200-300 phones.
