No one seems to be in the know on this one. Where are Lynn La, Brian Tong, and Josh Miller on this issue? Guess they only like the happy of a news story.

COME-ON GUYS - WAS IT A SCAM?

More likely it was fishing.

That's not phishing but fishing. You bring out your device and show it at the show and see if companies will place orders. If you get orders for thousands (in cell phones you need some tens of thousands to make scale of economies work) you go get your bank or other funding and away it goes.

In this case as it's over a year old design you can see newer models have showed up and well, they would have to try again with a VI, VII or X model.

Seems like your theory is valid. They even went after cloud funding, they made their funding goal, yet still nothing, no phone, no news, just nothing.

You may wonder why I concerned. Well, I was one of the first ones the bus - I had found my ST communication device, I could roam the stars. I know it sound silly, but I was Sci Fi fan since the Forty. **** Tracy wrist radio.......

MY concept of Crowdfunding - if you can not see the humor of it, why are you responding? That stick must hurt!

If you are in a technical discussion, give a hint that you are trying to use interweb humor. Devil

LOOK!

Look, before this becomes a personal style feud. I was only looking for information. Nobody seems to have a handle on what they are doing at Saygus, or if they do they are not saying. Your response about fishing seems to be a very feasible theory.

Thank-you
