I would wager any exposure is good exposure so they should really try to sell as many devices as they can

Assuming they can't retool the existing hardware, one of two things may happen over the coming months. They might drop the price on the pro1 - massive middle finger to the early adopters, but it will improve sales They will announce a new device - but given the track record for releasing, I'm unsure of how successful this would be. I would probably recommend the first option, but I'm not at the helm

I wish they would post these emails in the update thread. I haven't been getting these emails for a while now

Then post an update saying we have no new information. Radio silence sucks for the people who are intently following your project.

That's very unfortunate. If you're the same person, I loved your work on the Relay 4G

Competitor leaving the market is bad no matter what. You may not like the designs, lack of root, OS or whatever, but fact is it's one less option for people who want a keyboard. I was debating hard about getting a Priv when it came out a while back but the price was so high. I would've made soany compromises to get it too, but it was the only semi modern option for a keyboard phone

Can't predict when the factory will open but can you approximate how long it will take to complete the next batch? Also wondering what general availability will look like? Will local warehouses have the phone ready to ship or will the phone be on a made to order basis?

If the company stands behind their product, I wouldn't see that as an issue. Especially considering how new the phone is and early on in the life cycle

Good, I'm hoping with more production, prices for this thing start coming down... Used market should be interesting to track

Up to 70% of orders are filled now, what's the plan for the rest of them? When will they start production again? What will the ordering process look like once all pre-orders are filled?

They said on Twitter that the 4-6 weeks listed on the website is accurate now, although it's been like that for months. No doubt they are getting there, but even with a majority of the orders filled, they still remain obscure about details I said I would order when general availability comes, but I think I'll be waiting longer still. Not placing an order until phones during general availability are verified delivered in a timely manner.

What percentage of pre orders are left and what's the "estimate" for general availability?

I would anticipate people would be less willing to pay full price for a "used" device regardless of how little it was used. Especially considering the preorders are steadily getting filled now Good luck with sale

So it went from all preorders by the 18th, to 70% by the 18th, and now we're at the 20th? Delays galore... Lol jk Still terrible communication though. Feels like no one is on the same page

So glad they stopped those bs Twitter marketing posts. The Christmas one was tone deaf. Idiots....
