I did see Chen refer to a "new" batch recently on TMO but imagined that was related to the second batch that's finishing up production next week. I had noticed Gon refer to a third batch a few times but he said he inferred that himself from something support indirectly made him think. My understanding is all preorders are covered in this second batch and some leftover for general sales... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Totally agree. Fxtec could probably learn a few things from Detroit: https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/wait-wait-tell-me/ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My understanding is all preorders are covered in this second batch and some leftover for general sales... I'm quite sure that is the second batch, Strictly we do not even know if the second batch is large enough to cover all pre orders. See this from Erik some days ago https://community.fxtec.com/topic/2447-on-the-production-status/?do=findComment&comment=32973 On 11/5/2019 at 10:35 AM, Erik said: That is still the case, correct, but there aren't enough units in the first batch for all of the backers. The coming second batch will cover all IGG backers + most normal pre-orders, potentially all because we plan to be in general availability before Christmas. but we are guessing again, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Siani_8 105 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Just wondering how much the folks in the first batch could make off a phone if they sold it boxed with next day delivery upon receiving...... Ah but would even double the money be worth not opening and keeping Precious for themselves. Whatever,PM me lol 2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because cancelling a pre-order (due to dissatisfaction with lack of communication from Fxtec) does not cancel my interest in having a device with a physical keyboard? Because I'm still interested in what other people have to say? Because you quoted me and I got a notification of such? Or... I'm still hanging around on the forums because it upsets you. I'll leave it to you to guess which. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
