How can it be that 12:02 UTC the first 100 orders were placed, since the site was not working until 12:45 UTC or so? Lots of people were telling the same: not able to log in...
I too was only at that time able to log in...

The site was working to some extent from the very beginning. It was just using an old database last updated in early-mid May due to some confusion. Which is as frustrating for me (I developed the preorder system) as it is for anyone who missed out on the early batch because of it.

If I ordered at 12:45, am I still in the first 128 Gb upgrade batch?

You will be in the second batch (up to 1000 units), which will be the 128GB version. Third batch and later is 64GB.

I have to wait for the coupon. But do you have any idea when the PBP will arrive over here in the Netherlands when I order it?
I still have not received a coupon. I specifically registered for this lol

Batch 2 ships in a couple months.

In that case you are in Batch 2. Those coupons go out in a few weeks.

Do you still have a horribly short "use before" date on the coupons like you did with the original pinebook?
Cause i missed two coupons with the original pinebook because of this.
The short "use-by" date is to try to make the process not take even longer than it already does. Several people preorder but don't actually even plan to complete that order, holding up those spots in the queue away from people who actually want to order.
