The full text is:
"The Demos are fully functional. The only restriction that applies to 
demo versions is that they emit a noise about once every minute."

Pretty clear that they talk about functionality. A lawyer might try to 
go around that but I believe the judge would decide for the benefit of 
the company. But an adjudication depends sometimes on the knowledge of 
the customer: is it supposable that he did understand the message? If 
you, Pete, are the customer, the judge might say "we know that you 
know...". With a newbie it could be different.

Of course, on the website you mentioned they should better say 
"technical restriction".
