Look, if you bought the prototype today you are not ready to ship.

And as to '4', that's in response to yesterdays thread when the maximum capacity was still 2G.

And me not being the 'entrepreneurial' kind of guy is hilarious, thank you.

You write you will send some 'prototypes' to influential tech blogs, but you seem to completely get the terminology wrong here.

Prototype, pre-production, 0 series and production are all well defined terms. If you have a prototype today you are not within a week of shipping 500 of them, you still need FCC approval if you wish to ship to the US and similar for other countries, and you don't normally send out prototypes (that cost a small fortune to manufacture) to tech blogs for reviews, you do that with your first pre-production run, or if you're pressed for time with the first production batch.

As long as this unit has not been reviewed by a (respectable) third party I'd strongly recommend against people sending you their money.

As i final note, i will send the prototype for review soon to some major tech blogs, in the hope they will review us. You will then be able to speak with a clue. Thanks a lot. Alberto
