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


I guess the current preorder growth is on the lower side of the statistical average - probably soneone has a model for that. But just from a rough estimate of around 5000 Pandora Owners checking the site about once a week, and around 500 first-response Pyra adopters talking nonstop about it, reaching 3-5 people every day - that sounds about normal. Either by having old crowd members stumble over the news, spreading the word among friends and neighbors, or just plain luck - it's most probably in the 0,1%-0,01% rule of thumb margin. It would be an interesting excercise to hold that assumption against a site visitor counter...

But I digress - what I wanted to say was: There are only so many old crowd people and friends to talk to (I tried with 3 and didn't convince them yet)......

and didn't convince them yet
Yeah, had the same. There is an intrinsic aversion to German and French in the Netherlands, so just a glance at the keyboard puts them off. Could be a nationalistic trait, shared with all other countries. And also: Most of us are getting blind, thus, requiring a bigger monitor, not the small tiny what-cha-ma-callit.
Pandora was a bit more international, having Yen/Yuan Pound Dollar and Euro next to each other, it was also less cluttered, thus less confusing. Also blue is less aggressive than red. I guess I will have to show them the startup time of LibreOffice on the Pyra...

edit: Acclaration: not at the people, but the foreign language itself...
 
Funny, when I look at the keyboard, I tend to ignore the coloured symbols. I only see the English ones at first glance, and it took me a moment to see characters that weren't in french.

For a moment I thought you were going to say "more isn't better" again. :p

I like checking in a couple times a day to see if the numbers changed.
