my last new topic, concerning the latest update from F(x)tec seems to be deleted. Do you guys see it is the reaction from F(x)tec enough to prove they are fully sure they are not doing the right things right?

This change of chipset

Thank you for a couple of "thanks" to my post. I can imagine their situation - I am working for OEM business. They wanna run one batch as big volume as possible, accumulating a certain period of orders, then negotiate with EMS when to run. It is a small volume business destiny. My order # is 56715, that means between Jan 20th to Aug 31 (7month 11 days), they have only 8000pcs order. It can be a few days production volume, precluding the production line flip time (convert the line from one model to the other) which is usually a few days. Naturally how man

I know this type of threads got heated - anyway, I got response from fxtec support today concerning my 2nd piece order on Aug/31/2020, find as below. i.e. ETA next spring. FTN00b22, if you place order now and you are lucky, you will get it next summer. The most realistic estimate we have at the moment for another batch, which will include your order is between January 2021 and March 2021. We're very much aware your device should have arrived by now, and we're sorry we haven't met the previously suggested estimates. We want you to try the Pro1 for yourself more than a
