    Media and Press - who should we contact?

    That's exactly what I'm suggesting, not that you hide the uncertainties but explain them. If I came without much knowledge, liked the look of the 4GB version, checked the number of orders so far and saw 97% + were for the 4GB version but then read 'It's not 100% clear that we'll create a 4GB...

    Media and Press - who should we contact?

    @EvilDragon : I'd strongly recommend you answer the questions & consider the suggestions raised in this thread before attempting mass publicity for the Pyra. If I came to the project without much knowledge and saw that over 97.5% of orders were for the 4GB version but 'It's not 100% clear that...

    Additional Questions & Suggestions to help generate more pre orders.

    Some additional questions for the Pre Order FAQ : 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...

    Pyra carry case

    Should be fine with a 90 degree 3.5mm adapter.

    Pyra carry case

    I picked up a set of these to protect a camera lenses, a quick test with Pandora shows that the Size L version would work pretty well as a belt attachable holster for Pyra. It has an attached carabiner clip as well as a sturdy nylon belt loop. :) As for a general carry case one of these has...

    Ram & eMMC costs / power drain

    Over 97.5% of pre orders have been for the 4GB model, my REQUESTS for more information regarding the POSSIBILITY & cost implications of 4GB of Ram seem to bear out my argument that an open discussion of these sort of things could be of benefit to the project. It still strikes me as a shame that...

    Preorders Have Started. (Previously named starts in two hours)

    @EvilDragon Some additional questions for the Pre Order FAQ : 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...

    Ram & eMMC costs / power drain

    From the pre orders thread : Mind = Blown Good to hear you've backed off from the utter nonsense you were spouting earlier in this thread, just imagine if the question regarding how much ram people would like given that the cost would be an additional €X and performance impacts Y & Z had been...

    Finalizing everything!

    That makes no sense to me whatsoever, what do you gain from having OTG USB3 & Full size USB2 compared to OTG USB2 & Full size USB3? With full size USB3 you can add a low profile USB3 flash drive and have a real boost to fast storage.

    Finalizing everything!

    Great to hear it's all coming together. :) +1 for the option of 4GB on the WIFI model. @EvilDragon : Did you find out if there will be enough demand for a 4G model to meet the necessary MOQ's / support costs / additional production costs / complexity of needing EU & US models etc? Also one...

    Ram & eMMC costs / power drain

    From ED in the Finalizing everything thread : It would be good to hear things like the actual benefit of using 4GB of ram compared to using the Nand for Swap when 2GB ram use is exceeded, It may also be prudent to contact your pre pre orderers if it turns out you can only populated the Pyra...

    Will you allow full payment?

    Update SuperZaxxon v1.74

    Upgraded my CC unit from 1.5x and can confirm you need to do the full flash, thought it couldn't hurt to try from the update OS option but that did not work, told me the Nand was out of space... Full flash worked as expected. Doing the upgrade OS option really brought it home to me the amount...

    Bugs and Calculations

    Or direct contact via email for the 200 with pre pre orders & an official poll here from ED asking if people would want to pay the necessary price for the option of 3G / 4G. I can understand why it would appeal to some but my gut feel is that it would make a lot less sense in terms of demand /...

    Psychology of Pricing

    There would probably be civil unrest* if that model was applied here. ;) The sale price listed for the item is the price you pay, which seems sensible to me. Had, what to me was a really weird retail experience in the US, I had $20 on me and my purchases came to just less than that, only to be...

    How about an extra field on the ordering form for voluntary donations?

    Psychology of Pricing

    In terms of the Pyra I'm thinking about what prices should be used when promoting the crowd funding (i.e. pre ordering) campaign. My concern is that if the Pyra was promoted as costing €500 to UK customers then many of them would be really put off to find this did not include VAT. However it's...

    Bugs and Calculations

    Are there any ways the community here can help with the pre order process / crowd funding process? Such as : Translation to French, Spanish, Japanese & proof reading of English for the relevant Pyra web pages. Helping anticipate & compile answers for what are likely to be frequently asked...

    Ram & eMMC costs / power drain

    From the bugs and calculations news post ED stated that 1500+ is what he'd like to sell as this is the number required to ensure that future sales could be from stock rather than via pre order. Here is how I would do it : Email all 200 that have pre pre orders and find out if they would...

    Bugs and Calculations

    It seems like this would be very useful to know when it comes to deciding what to to with the whole 3G / 4G / US / ROTW question, it makes a lot of sense to me to directly contact (via email) the 200 to find out if they want & are willing to pay the necessary premium for mobile data. As well as...
