There is indeed. Unfortunately a subset of customers either didn't read it, or misunderstood it.
Quote:This effectively mean that while core functionality of the PinePhone – such as telephone calls, SMS messages, LTE, GPS, GPU acceleration, etc. – is operational, it is also an ongoing effort, and thus the device cannot be considered as a consumer-ready product.I can understand someone who hasn't been keeping track of development seeing this as meaning everything works out of the box but the experience needing some polish, rather than that the underlying hardware works (but may still have bugs to be fixed in later board revisions) but that software support for some parts is not yet in place and others are currently unreliable. Make it clearer and the only customers lost will be those who would have been dissatisfied.
