(second) Guessing Game

[Vorporeal]

Then he shouldn''t be the only person to do it, Should he?


I don't see why my forum join date should have anything to do with this forum in much need of some TLC. It's a stupid problem and should have been sorted when the forum went live again.

There's only one Admin, and he's a very busy man. Learn to live with long delays in forum fixing. I'm surprised it didn't take longer than it did to even get the forums back online in the first place - it generally takes more than 2 days.

 

[joa]

Fair enough.

 

[solidstate]

Any idea why I'm not on the list - my guess that I made on 15th Jan on the original topic was 16th April 2009 - and I'm sticking by that guess.

If the first pandora isnt delivered in may than I back out. Then I still can get a nice netbook of 500 euro (the best EEEpc or something)

If a final keymat (and even a final PCB) needs to be tested in the CNC before case production begins then it looks June-ish?

WTF
Hope your wrong

Wel since a CNC case is on it's way to MWeston, and he has a keypad, we COULD see a complete pandora this week, making april shipment still very possible. I stand by my guess of april 14th

Well, the official word was:

* Create the keymat mould (takes 20 - 25 days)
* Design the final keyboard layout (needs to be finished when the mould is ready)
* Create mould of final case (can be done once the case fits, takes 30 - 35 days)

As far as I can tell the keymat mould hasn't begun yet, so if it's after the case mould is made that's already 50 days (from whenever the case mould begins) at best, and that's before mass production of either even starts.

Once the CNC is confirmed 100% ok, the various moulds can be made at the same time. MFK's assembly seems to have gone well, now there's just MWeston's to go together (with keymat etc), then FCC/CE tests. Both moulds -could- be ready 30 days after that. Say, mid-late April.

I'm putting in for May 14th, and 16-24th as the day I get mine

Not sure who my money is on now - maybe ckblackm as his guess was from 9th Dec 2008 :blink:

hehe unless the OP team have been sandbagging then I guess my guess isn't going to happen?

Sending out Pandora's tomorrow?

 

[RajTakhar]

Hoping mid May

Pessimistic my birthday on June 11th

 

[CCmachined]

this is my first prediction in any thread, and its august 20th.
however, if its not shipping before the end of april as promised then im pulling out. things are quite ridiculous now.

If the first pandora isnt delivered in may than I back out. Then I still can get a nice netbook of 500 euro (the best EEEpc or something)

personally, im waiting until mid june before i apply for a refund. hopefully that won't happen, i've been waiting 6 months since my payment... i wonder how long other people will wait? might make a poll on it.

i still hold my guess at 19th april, 1 month before my birthday. I really hope i won't have another birthday still waiting for my pandora (was last year).
