i got mine sometime in the night. I have decided to hold off on that option until we see more in-depth reviews as there are obviously some production issues which need to be separated from incorrect expectations from the PixelQi display versions.

More importantly I want to see the UI work as well as the touch work more consistently than the user videos I've see. Some are fine and other devices seem to have flaky touch response.

I still LOVE the idea of the Adam but it might just be too soon in it's production to invest in a device with no global service program setup. It is not as if Notion Ink could not have contracted with a company like C.R.I.S here in the US to handle any warranty issues. BTW, I don't know if CRIS handles other than camera service but for the DLSR's and lenses I own they have been excellent when given proper support from the manufacturer with parts and service information. Notion Ink, I hope, will head in this direction. But for now I am passing on spending half-a-mega-buck for a device that needs to ship half-way around the globe if a problem develops.
