How can you get burned? You donate $600, the campaign makes it to
$32M, you get an Ubuntu Edge, if not, you're not out a dime.

Cool. Also, I wrote a Python script for my personal use, to watch the
amount of funding that the Ubuntu Edge has
received!http://pastebin.com/TJ1Hvktw
Thanks for that, just popped that into my conky script. :D
I'm so in - *really* want to throw down the $600 - but I've been
so burned by things like Ouya that I'm going to stick with the $20
pledge instead.

You missed the most frequent option we've hit so far with crowdsourced
hardware - it gets funded, there's tons of
fulfilment/shipping/distribution issues and|or the hardware completely
sucks and has "alpha" all over it.
See Ouya as a capital example. There's plenty of others, of course. The
Nvidia shield may be another one, we'll have to see there. Several open
source gaming platforms, the OpenMoko handset, etc.
Actually, you're more likely to get burned that to have it come up roses.
Sorry, I rode *all* the rides like that I can afford to. Only Pebble
turned out for me in the last 36 mos.
