Magnets are ordered, pogo-pins ordered, first batch of toh-casing pcbs arrives tomorrow.

Today 3d printed toh-casings in all colours arrive, will make some/lots pics. If they are all good, I can order all toh-casings and I should have all parts to start manufacturing on those.

Still 13 people have not answered the survey. Asked lots of times via Kickstarter, sent emails, pinged some via facebook, but the rest is unreachable - or have 20 other people with the same name and no jolla related posts anywhere. Even got some angry/irritated replies after taking the effort to mail them, but that is just part of the game I guess.
Anyway, since I cannot guess their colours and will not order 13 of each colour extra (260 casings for top and bottom), they will be moved to the back of the queue.

Today lots of data processing. #fun

Dirk, sorry if you are not the right person to ask but I do not know anyone better.

Update #8 has the discount coupon and very terse T&Cs, only mentioning the expiry date and the shipping countries. The update itself has a header saying "For backers only" but that clause is not explicitly present in the couponT&Cs, making it ambiguous whether the coupon is for backers only or the update itself.

My question is, can I share the coupon? Is anyone going to cross-check whether it is being used by a backer or a stranger? I am not going to use it myslef and it would be a shame to let it go to waste.

Yes, the code is only for backers. But Jolla does not have your IPs listed or whatever.

So, if you do not use it yourself, you can -and seems more than fair to- share it with a friend. Posting you have an unused code everywhere and publishing it is not appreciated however.

Look what decided to show up early!

500 pcs

Nice!
Reminds me of the 2001 monolith for some reason

Sorry, I missed the Kickstarter and now I'm confused whether I can order this from web page. I thought so, but in this thread are questions about colours and whether somebody was in 100 first backer and so on...

So, can I have TOHKBD by ordering from Funkyotherhalf.com...uh oh, it's not there anymore so I missed that boat also, right? Damn...

Perhaps Dirk could set up a queue at funkyotherhalf.com for late-comers. There you could enter your email, and after the main batches are out, Dirk could send out an email to those interested provided he has enough interest for an extra batch by then? Perhaps even a note at the top of the closed Kickstarter about where to find the sign-up for a possible future batch?

ill see if i can set up a mailing list or so

I would be interested too (missed the boat due to having heard about it too late).

Latest casing adapted for the pogo pins, very clean
