Well haven't done much with them in terms of big projects but I do have a laser cutter, 3d printer/mill, have backed a few electronic kickstarters which ran into small issues and have followed enough projects across the web and read enough to know how much time and work designing such a thing takes, just how little I know and how little their team seems to know.
And those retractible sticks worry me seeing how they are making them and they are still in the prototype phase.
The stronger the linkage is the more space it'll take and if its poorly designed a catastrophe happens.
I can't put any faith that whatever design they come up with will last thousands of cycles of opening and closing without failure or slop developing.
And there's the stretch goal of a E-ink lower screen for those who want it.
That is a good way to screw with the supply chain, manufacturing and shipping when you throw around optional addons like that.
More options isn't really a good thing for kickstarters, I've seen a kickstarter fall into chaos when there were too many optional things you could select.
That guy was fortunate and smart enough to stop his kickstarter before the campaign ended and reorganize and restart with less options and his campaign was successful.
Hell the lite model has roughly 25 backers while the hardcore one has over 800.
They should just drop the lite model.
And finally there is internal space.
Finding room in the hardcore mode casel to put everything will be interesting, especially when I'm pretty sure this'll need to be tested and certified by the fcc and whatever other agencies due to its cellular capability.
