NB. Craig mentioned elsewhere that due to high winds, the telegraph poles in his area were blown down, so no phone or internet for a while = probably even bigger backlog than usual.Everyone says "Ed's list" or "Craigs list"... but I got my email from someone named Jacquelyn @ www.gp32x.de... anyone know which list this is? (I'm also worried due to not getting replies to my emails anymore...)
I receive replies from openpandorasales@gmail.com Which store is that?
Craigs
I'd say 2 Months is a reality. 1/4 were from EDs shop or go there after assembly.If I am number 850-950 in Craigs batch 2 queue, when will I receive my Pandora? I would estimate sometime around April of next year. How is the supply divided? I believe that most of the sales were from ED, but I could be wrong.
The only thing I can say for sure is, behind me.Wonder where I am... Ordered about 14 months ago

No its really Two Months™ at this point. Nubs are done testing, testing complete, 100% GO. Now we need them to mass produce and get them to Texas, then Texas needs to have a hot cattle prong nearby with the OP Logo on it for the manager failing to meet output quota meeting/surpassing QA/QC. The people making the nubs aren't making the boards, the boards have been good just not timely. A backup is in the works for boards, nubs ? Foxconn, really? I'd love some of whatever you are smoking.2 months.......... Don't we all wish it was 2 months? One would think that with the 60 or so Pandoras that will be assembled soon, that the rest of the nubs would be completed as well. It was mentioned that 1 or 2 thousand nubs could be produced per day, so what are we waiting on? I thought that someone was keeping close watch on Mr.Carsalesman over at the board company. Any news on that front? So 1000 nubs per day,and a thousand boards per month are estimated? :-( That is quite the glacial pace. How many Pandoras has Craig and/or ED assembled per day? What I don't understand is why the nubs cannot be affixed to the boards in a single location. If a backup company was agreed upon to produce boards and nubs in unison, Pandora's would be assembled in half the time. Doesn't Foxconn do this? I know that working conditions may not be that great there, but they get the job done on time, every time. They manufacture and assemble electronic devices all of the time.
I wish I had a Pandora for every time I heard that. Don't forget, it was really Two Months last summer as well.No its really Two Months™ at this point.
In a certain way, I'm kinda surprised that issues 1 to 3 haven't happend yet.well lets see what are some realistic scenarios in which would further delay the pandora? Almost every conceivable and inconceivable situation seems to have happened to delay this project. Here's a short list of things I think could *still* happen.
1)board company fails to produce and production is routed to this "new company"
2)new board company needs time to produce new boards
3)new boards from new company are faulty and need fixed
4)boat with remainder of cases gets hijacked by pirates
5)the plane with completed boards crashes
6)the van with ED's portion of the Pandoras gets into an accident all pandoras destroyed
7)someone discovers a latent patent on the Pandora design and someone sues OP
8)battery gets recalled due to exploding pandora risk
9)north korea/south korea go to war, somehow delays the pandora
10)zombie apocalypse
There are about three separate queues (EvilDragon, Craigix, Fatih). This position is your estimated position in the queue of Craig.Your approximate queue position is 1150 - 1250.
When will this wave be delivered? No one really knows. If all goes well, which has never happened in the last two years, you have reasonable odds to receive your unit in december.
