Dead Product?

Starts up quick as advertised, but no app store and forum postings are all very old. You can still install apps manually via dpkg of course and it's a great setup otherwise, but it would be nice to see some signs of life from the company in terms of the app store and news.

One license == one machine only

I was able to get up and running very quickly last night which was very impressive all by itself. All devices (sound, wifi, etc) on my old Lenovo T60 were detected without any problem. The 'app store' was down, but I was able to install Adobe for Linux via the regular download.

So far all is well and I'm very impressed, and happy to pay someone else to smooth out the bumps for me. The current 1 device / 1 license limitation is a bit of a disappointment, however.
