What kind of financial backup does he have, in order to secure a long term commitment to support and customer service? I'm a bit surprised that no-one is asking these kind of questions.
Seeing how he is requesting e-mails before production run is not a good sign in this context IMHO. I see a new "Eyetech situation" coming up here.
Please, do not compare him with Eyetech...
I mean yes, he is (also) going to sell a very expensive product (considering what you get, and what others can get for the same price) but at least it seems that he's doing most of the work himself, instead of re-selling others' work with a higher price tag...
Yes, AmigaOnes have lots of problems, but they're not coused by him or anything... And if 1.7GHz cards won't work well (at all?), they probably will get canceled.
I see this situation as him cleaning up after Eyetech. Trying to produce working CPU cards to those, who no longer have one.
