Looks like I will have to travel to Cambodia and hang out there waiting for the Thai border to reopen have family in Thailand and have spoken to Thai embassy, can't really get much sense from them????

Do you have a work permit , business visa or something else in mind?

I don't think Cambodian tourist visas are being issued ATM.

Assuming that everything goes right, you'll undergo a 14-day quarantine period which will cost you a total of $945. This amount will be withdrawn from a $3000 deposit you'll have to commit to in a specific Commercial Bank of Cambodia's.

That is correct - NO TOURIST VISAS only special visas for business people, investors, construction engineers (for on-going projects), diplomats/VIPs and medical/scientific experts. But a glimmer of hope (from Khmer Times):-

I hope that you get to see them soon but it is not looking good.

I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for land borders to reopen.

How does that help simple tourists? Same categories as in Thailand.

Yes indeed - it does not help simple tourists. As I stated "no tourist visas being issued in Cambodia"

That could take a while to happen in practice and doesn't apply to most of us. A sponsoring company would be needed. Basically it's another way of saying: "rich VIPs can get in more easily provided they have sponsors to vouch for them".

If you can wait a couple more months, I think it will probably become easier to enter Thailand than at present.
