While I love the idea, that price is totally insane. I don't see how anyone would be willing to pay that much for what is essentially a beta device. It seems that it is quite difficult to manufacture these devices, at a reasonable cost, without help from the big names :(
On the other hand, many people probably think the same about the "standard" Librem 5 price.
The people getting them already do so because they want the idea to have a chance, not because they're cheap or directly good value for money. Some might say "it's double than what I'd spend on an Android, but that's worth it" about the normal price, wouldn't be surprised if for others the reference frame is "2x iPhone" instead.
