Think of this as "absolutely completly obsolete" after a "very short time"
due
to "major improvements of the hardware layout".

Of course I am aware of the nature of such projects.

I just wouldn't want to spend $150 for PCB 1.0 on Monday and discover
PCB 2.0 beeing released on Wednesday. Although even this wouldn't bother me
as long as nobody would tell me that my "brandnew" 1.0 is just of no use
at all...

regards,
Oli
