On the plus-side, at least there seems to be some updates. However, it's sporadic and confusing - either update on the blog or News section, not on the blog one month and 3 months later post it in the News section. On the negative-side, and not counting CoVID-related issues, there seems to be a lack of a contingency plan. At a most basic business level, there should have been a plan at every stage of development - what if manufacturer can't meet demand (find another manufacturer, or add more machinery), what if there is a problem with the initial chip (what other chip will meet posted specs), what if shipping out exceeds 6 months (refund everyone and try again at a point that's manageable, or have faith of understanding customers), etc. This should have been a Kickstarter project - there are people selling small electronic devices out of their home that are able to meet demand within 1-3 months. Showing "Planned" on the product page seems like a company giving itself a "way out" should something fail. Who would buy a car if it showed "Planned" on the transmission or steering? Either it will or it won't. From the delays to manufacturing to minimal transparency/infrequent updates, there seems to be a lack of direction/focus and I'm surprised people aren't more upset.
Fill in the blank.
