Exactly, the
T&C are clear about it:
Quote:
2. Cancellation of pre-orders. (...) Please note, however, that the funds raised with your pre-order may be partially invested in product development. Delivery is contingent on sufficient funds to complete the development of the products. Hence, reMarkable cannot guarantee that you will receive a full refund in all cases as the funds raised by your pre-order may be lost, either fully or partially.

I was thinking more about the "full price" I had mentioned before and it seems that reMarkable have thought it over very well. The full price isn't $716 as I came to think, the full price is $529, which is pretty reasonable given the current prices of other ereaders. So when the pre-order offer ends the price of the reader may become $529 to keep the early adopters happy for some time and they will still have enough room for "special offers" like, say, 50% off that overpriced cover or shipping.
Thanks leselysten for interesting comments about reMarkable's CTO and his involvement in the development of Okular.
