Some additional questions for the Pre Order FAQ :
I reckon that answers / clarification to the above might help to generate additional pre orders. There will be a subset of people who like to know exactly what they are ordering (will the 4GB model work?) and exactly what their order will cost (delivery charges).
There will also be a large number of potential customers who have never heard of ED and be unaware of the amazing work he did resurrecting & supporting the Pandora.
Anyone got any additional questions / suggestions that might help generate more pre orders?
- When do you plan to find out if the 4GB Version works correctly + what impact it has on battery life & performance (compared to swap file)?
- Do the prices quoted include delivery charges?
- If not what would the delivery charge be to Country X?
- What are the goals for the pre orders? e.g. If we get X pre orders for the US Mobile edition we’ll be able to make that edition, if we get Y total pre orders we’ll be able to sell future units from stock etc.
- What is the time limit for pre ordering? i.e. Will pre orders be kept open until a certain number of units are sold or is there a fixed time limit beyond which pre orders will not be taken?
- Who is this Evil Dragon guy and why should I trust him with my money?
- When you say 'The Mobile Edition adds mobile internet (3G/4G), GPS as well as different sensors (Altometer, Hygrometer, Barometer, Compass)' do you mean that these sensors are different to the Altometer, Hygrometer, Barometer, Compass sensors on the standard edition or that (as suspected) these sensors do not appear on the standard edition? If the latter is the case then please consider changing the wording to something like : 'The Mobile Edition features mobile internet (3G/4G), as well as additional sensors (GPS, Altometer, Hygrometer, Barometer, Compass)
- If as suspected the ‘different’ sensors + GPS do not appear on the standard edition, what was the thinking behind only including them with the Mobile edition?
- Based on the fact that over 97% of pre orders are for the 4GB version is it worth considering making 4GB the default option and scrapping the 2GB option?
- Would you like some help with wording on the English Pre Order Page? Don't get me wrong it's OK as it is, however there are certain parts that could benefit from additional clarity, especially if you're hoping to attract pre orders from people who have not closely followed the project.
- Would you like some help translating the Pre Order pages / FAQ into other languages? Spanish, French & Japanese spring to mind.
- When do you plan to distribute the Dev units?
- Have a prominent link to the pre order page on the Forum
- Have a link to Pyra on the Nav bar for Dragonbox shop (along with Pandora, Consoles, Retro etc.)
- Display the pre order count, perhaps using this script, on a prominent position on the pre order page.
