Update!

Hey folks, hope all is well out there! Let’s get to it.

  • I spent this evening running through some software and interface tests. Mostly making sure all basic actions and functionality are working and that there are no breaking bugs. I am not going crazy here and working towards perfection. Just making sure we have a good baseline for initial usage and firm ground to update over. No firm date on when the Github will get the OS just yet but this work is pushing us closer to that target as well.

Nice to see you again.

  • I have not picked a firm ship date yet but it will be within the next week or two. The best case scenario for this month is batch 1 and 2 heading out, with the next batches starting after the holidays. I’d love to say we’re gonna ship tomorrow or in 3 days, but I know a bunch of minor blockers are gonna pop up so I am trying to be smarter and call that now instead of somehow surprising myself again….

  • The interface and code testing Ive been doing is on in-progress assembled units. Two birds, one stone and all that. I am also filming while building these units so we can start adding to the build videos. I don’t see a window to edit and upload new vids until the Christmas break when I will have a few days off in a row. Similar to the testing discussed in the first point, I am not working for perfection here. Just well lit and descriptive enough to get the point across. I will have more info on assembled unit ETAs soon, probably not the next update but should be good to go for the one after that.

  • Now that I am close to shipments and tangible progress, I will be posting more day to day work shots on Instagram and FB. I really love sharing that content but felt like without significant progress it was just a drag for everyone to see the same old stuff.

  • Customer support turn around times have improved a lot recently. I know there are still a significant number of folks waiting and I apologize that we are not at 100% yet. I have been working very hard on improving this every day and I hope that it is starting to show. For those still waiting on a contact or a confirmation, you will hear from me soon.

  • Next update should be Friday or Saturday. There will be IG content in between then so please keep an eye out for that.

  • This update will hit the Kickstarter page at some point on Wednesday.

That is all for now. See you all soon!
