I hope this won't undermine the openness of the device. It seems quite apparent that someone will use the root access of the device to implement the paid features on their own and package it as an alternative UI. And at that point, reM

Each to their own. I have a 6 disk HDD RAID server in my sleeping room, because I find the random read and write sounds relaxing at night. It's not disturbing either, as the sounds are muzzled by a noise dampening case.

Had a similar experience with Oxbridge this year. They admitted me to a PhD program and asked me to pay the fees (which I was fine with, I had my own funding source), but they also wanted 50-100% of the IPR. Whether it is 50% or 100% depend
