Looks like definitely no prototypes before Christmas then.Hopefully the new company can produce some cases early next year?
How can they start production of a part if the moulds are supposed to be elsewhere?
That's just the super fast greek shipping. Ship today, receive yesterday!
They probably have produced everything already...
The date header in the email should have been generated by their own computer with roughly the right time on it. If you can't depend on that, look at the Received: headers; the earliest one should have been created by the SMTP server they sent the email to, and you can be generally pretty sure that's got the right time on it.Or it's their internet. They probably sent out that mail 5 weeks ago and it arrived just now. They probably have produced everything already...
I'm pretty sure we said pretty much the same after the Pandora stopped being made, and were talking about a followup.At least it all can be chalked down to experience, and surely @ED now has that by the bucket load.
AAAaalllright. Now, according to my contact, the moulds should arrive today or on Monday at UniquePlast, whereas the carrier will contact me on Monday regarding the clear cases delivery.
At the same time, FormAction sends me an email and ask me whether I need the plastic logo part as well, as they're now starting production.
Something doesn't add up here. Are they living in different time dimensions?
Well, yeah, I guess no prototypes before christmas, sadly... but at least it seems FormAction is moving forward a bit.
Totally annoying!
6 months ago, we didn't even have working 4GB RAM Boards. And they were still working on the molds.ED I think you are a good guy and I know you have a lot going on....but you need to figure this out. It is incredibly frustrating to once again get a news post that is EXACTLY what it was 6+ months ago and we are how many years into this.
If it were me i would at the very least be calling formaction 2-3 times a day for updates and sending the rep a couple times a week.
Beware of statements like this. Duke Nukem Forever was the same, and look what happened to 3DRealmsThePyra is finished when it's finished.
This is Greek magic! It's Fgreeking magic!That's just the super fast greek shipping. Ship today, receive yesterday!
