Actually it does sound like there is some spring closing it, but I could be wrong.

Indeed, it is very obvious how out of sync the two sides easily gets with uneven pressure

I just saw their video again where he so struggles to both open and close it 1:05 to 1:20 in. Imagine how the Astro will be in real life, if this is the least bad the inventor himself can make the mechanism work for presentation.... that they have not replaced the footage with something more convincing over the last half a year sort of says a lot IMHO. For comparison look at the post in here where Elysia shows how super easy it is for her to open&close the Pro1, despite it certainly isn't super easy for all first time users. One could claim that Pro1 is being over-sold and the As

This is a really hard dilemma. We want the keyboards and keys large, and also the display large, but our hands and pockets are not growing at the same pace.... The only possible solution I see is at totally rethought set of design-guidelines for the OS, so that apps and OS have a larger display area than interactive area. That is the only way we are getting one hand operable devices back, while also having large screens and keyboards.

Somehow I'm not surprised that they a mere seven months after the campaign ended are still prototyping.... The idea of sliding the top all the way and then tilting is interesting, to allow for a larger keyboard area. But to be practically useful they will have to find a clever way to also synchronise the two 'rails'. Not to mention how to make such a complex mechanism at the least somehow resistant to pocket lint.

I too would try it out on a less hard to get device first....

(I think it is a general EU thing, the interesting thing would be to know if commitments made with purchases while UK was still in the EU will still be binding after Brexit, including cross boundary transportation? - and no one knows what new purchases next year will be bound by....)

(Sorry @shubell I can not test that, it is a preproduction unit without an imei...)

Very interesting, thanks. Though the weather forecast predict that as impossible here for at the least the next week... grey grey grey .....😓 ADD: We are having a December with historical little sun, current forecasts predict that we won't see the sun directly before Christmas.

(The resolution limit is the product of the viewing distance and the density - assuming it is at a range where we can focus It is important to make sure the image is displayed so one pixel in the display is one pixel of the image. NO automatic scaling/zooming/squeezing)

@Rud Sorry for going off topic, but you seem to have amazing vision to work with these font sizes. I tried to make a simple vision test over here, would be interesting to hear if you beat the currently best I met,

As madeye mentioned with harder words, the differrent kind of "early" and the like are generally marketing gimmicks to pursuade people that there is an urgency to get them at a discounted price. But as they keep moving the bar, the "urgency" have been questionable... But as the whole campaign ends in less than a week, now there IS an urgency, if you want one. Obviously they could make a second campaign later on, set for later shipping date. But who knows... But there are (or have been) also other perks. Both two storage sizes and with additional stuff, either spare parts or engravin

Visa worked fine for me (DK)

According to the guide Logo+Enter is supposed to do Home. It does not currently though.

This is one possibility: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pro1-x-smartphone-functionality-choice-control/x/16576339 though they do not expect to ship before March. Note that the campaign ends in less than a week!

I think you should try to find some USB2. Perhaps a USB2 hub, between your newer pc's USB3 port and the Pro1

Indeed. I'm guessing here but they could have a person with rather limited tech-knowledge scanning mails versus an internal FAQ list with predefined answers, thus speeding up response times and also freeing up more knowledgeable staff for more complex tasks.

Formatting the card in a pc to exFAT, and it works fine it seems. If I choose to to reformat it in the phone, it is formatted back to fat16 (not FAT32). Though formatting to FAT32 on a pc, that is supported too.

....I found a (by 2020 standards) small 1GB card, formatting does not ask about what format. It formats it as "vFat"

This installed smoothly, thanks. 👍 I will see if I can find a sufficient empty card to test. 🙂

Interesting. I wonder if the priority is higher with the 17.1 implementation when "priortise update processs" is deselected? Or have you enabled this?

Forgot that it is supposed to do incremental now, so flashed back to 20201130, and tried OTA, and it only presented me with a 720MB full package, so will manually flash it to 20201207.... 😒

Well for my part that is what I feel. The issues I experience are all pure software. (though I have improved it with a few strategically places tiny self-adhesive rubber stickers) But sure as many have stated there are faulty units (would have been a miracle otherwise), but the handling of those certainly seem like it could have been better. And the same goes for the software bugs. But as they are a dedicated team I do still believe the later will be ironed out. Also remember that a forum like this will always present a disproportional amount of bugs, as people (for obvious reasons
