Purpose would be to share information not yet known. As example, driver legroom for long legged people or how does the key card work, do you need to swipe it across the pillar, what functions can be done on a smart phone, home link? None of these things would appear to be "big deal" press issues. Surely many employee 3 owners have used this site and others to help them make a decision. Revealing answers to many unknowns would be a nice pay back.

It would be nice if Tesla posted an on-line owners' manual so we can learn the interface.
Yeah, I was looking yesterday for the one that's in the glove compartment. Not online that I can find, darn it... That would be *great*. At least we know it exists. Unless we were punk'd and they put a Model S manual in the cars...
They're not under NDA, VIN #5 has posted several pictures as well as a video of his production Model 3.
I think people just assume the 30 owners are exactly the same as us. Most people don't care in the slightest about posting videos, pictures, doing walkthroughs, etc. 1 out of 30 people posting information seems pretty reasonable.
This isn't much different than the Model X release. There were videos and pictures, but it took a little while until enough cars filtered out to someone interested in making detailed walkthrough videos.

Those 30 employees were probably some higher level managers and investors (like Jurvetson), not factory floor workers or stores staff. Even if they didn't sign any NDA, I think there's an unspoken agreement or company loyalty to not be super public with their opinions until more and more are delivered.

Why would I care what they say BEFORE they even own their car for a month?
The engineering validation cars aren't even "validated" yet.
These guys are the beta testers, right?
Many small tweaks no doubt for the next 8 weeks maybe even 16 weeks.
Full production (half speed) not until December.
As Elon said, production hell has started.
Get a grip people.

Yeah, I wanna know if there is an always on power port in the car so that when I take it camping I can plug in a little fridge to keep my food and drinks cold. I love that the Bloomberg report says there is 6'9" of sleeping space with the seats down. Wonder if there will also be room for my wife back there.

I would assume there is. People have reported using the car's climate control over night for camping so I would guess that the power port would also be on.

I don't know what Elon Musk refers to when he uses the term "production". I guess he just means the car is being produced?
In the tech industry, production and internal testing are very separate things.
