The only project you can back for 1$ and get close to some out of mind action.
But there is enough show for even someone who finds that too much to ask:
Today's major misconceptions:
- You can sell a titanium shell without a minimum order requirement.
- Ok, how about a MAXIMUM of 10, at the price of 800$, with innards included.
Thats 8k$ - with a straight up cut of thousands for the machines to put in them, alone being a huge stretch for 800$, then additional organisation, to produce at least 4 different parts (or hit us with the unibody meme, go on, you are on a roll already), and laser engrave them. Then you need to make special case files, and buy raw material, titanium being one of the really expencive ones.
What am I trying to say → You do not end up with money to do CNC-machining, p e r i o d.
How many big name megacorporations have tried to take on apple and samsung for luxury handsets? Something that btw. has no moving parts, and only one screen.
HTC, Motorola, Lenovo, Microsoft, Nokia, Intel, Huawei, etc etc etc. They would love to be able to operate on these margins, but they can't, because THEY DO NOT EXIST.
And somehow 10 people, two of which are engineers, are going to do better than samsung and apple. Their R & D budgets for hardware are m a s s i v e. They have every advantage you could think of, and then some. Not to mention they are both routinely convicted for operating illegally, but hey-ho, totally kickstart this idea into your head, that doesn't matter. We just sell it cheaper. I know right.
If people say you cant do something you promised, don't promise
more fantasy projects.
- Lets just change category to "Project design" and get away from the technology requirements on kickstarter. Nobody will even notice.
You are just as wrong, but now adding insult to injury, for a combined sum of
pathetic.
