<br>
thanks for the updates. I have a few additional questions on group purchase: <br>
<br>
Can we pay the group payment via paypal? <br>
If a member of our group wants to purchase the debug board, can we order that
at the same time (and have it shipped together), or should he order that on his
own?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

<br>
The 10 pack will have to be ordered by one person. It will ship to that<br>
persons location.<br>
<br>
Now, how will people arrange to do this? I thought long and hard about this.<br>
And then I realized that some people will find one way, one guy pays and<br>
others promise to pay him. Some people will find another way, half up front<br>
and half on delivery. Some people will do contracts. Some people will just<br>
choose to do a single phone. <br>

Subject: questions for steve regarding group purchases<br>
<br>
steve, what methods are being considered by openmoko for group purchasing?<br>
<br>
most of us do now know the other members of a group and would like<br>
some security that the group organised is not able to run off with the<br>
money - are openmoko willing to engage in purchases via escrow agents?<br>
or is it a case of 'sort it our amongst yourselves, all we want is a c<br>
card number or paypal account'? if the latter is the case, is there<br>
anything/anyone openmoko or anyone else here can recommend for making<br>
sure things go smoothly?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
<br>
