To nitpick a bit...
Looking at the advertisement on Twitter and just about all (don't quote me on that) the articles on the OP, it's pretty obvious that it has been targeted at crApdroid users first and foremost, so there's statistically much more people *out of TMO* that know about the Pro1 than *in here*.
NB: No need to argue about shAtdroid being pushed forward, I'm pretty sure most of us here have reached the consensus that it is a necessary evil.
Statistically, everybody is a smartphone user this days. And yet, 95% of those have no idea what version of OS their phone is on, or that playstore even exist. They just know that their new phone does not have something that the old one did. And so on.......
Advertisement in android world is much more needed than here. We all know what are we getting and why. Out there, sheeps will just get samsung because it's the only brand in prominent place everywhere.

we don't need any events, we need sales start. why wasting time when it's better focus on finishing production and starting shipping?

F(x)tec is a completely unknown company for the most of people, after all. Showing people that the product really exists and even giving them a chance to try it out is a great way make more customers.
meetings won't beat up Apple's brainwashing for recent 10 years. 99% of people dream of iphone no matter what other companies offer. those events might attract single percents of possible buyers.
Besides, do you really think that these guys, who arrange these meetings, normally spend their days assembling the phones? So arranging meetings will make delays to the process getting phones ready to ship? In Dirkvl's home factory it was like this perhaps, but not in a modern phone company.

Also it’s painful to know that what you’ve seen still not ready as a product.
It’s already better than some of devices on the market, but at the time of me seeing it, it wasn’t ready to be shipped.
On positive side, you can see the attention to details and the work that was already done, and it’s worth waiting.

Whether people in the "Android world" care is moot: just because the Pro1 has been presented here doesn't mean every single TMO members is interested in it either.
In any case, can't wait for more news about the hardware... and of course Leste, SFOS and the likes (if there's actually more than those two in the works)

I would say same as DDark, it is hard when someone show You a candy, give a taste, and after that, takes it away...
We must think positive... And I trust Chen that he will tell us if some delaying is coming...
I don't like "gtmaster303"s negative attitude...

Both of them have been communicator users in the time of Nokia phones, and were fairly interested about f(x) when I told them about it.
I somehow would have imagined that all Sailfish users would already have known about it, seems I was wrong.
