Hey there, we sent an email out first thing this morning to all our v1 preorder customers (thousands and thousands) before we publicly announced the preorder campaign for Mesh and the mail system we use for newsletters bungled it and didn't send it at all, except to 24 people and their dashboard didn't show this happened til hours later (so we assumed everything was fine). We are working to remedy it right now. You all were supposed to get the very first email. (Here is proof of me yelling at the company whose software is responsible for this on Twitter -- after they didn't reply to 4 attempts to reach them prior: https://twitter.com/danielaperdomo/status/781222497131827200

We are working in real-time to get this issue fixed, which was the opposite of our intention. I'm really sorry this happened.

Anyway, we like both products! Our award-winning v1 device gets great point to point range; this new one will do that plus offer the opportunity to relay messages via mesh in certain situations. And we can finally address demand internationally (Mesh can ship to 49 countries bc we're going through regulatory process in other regions).

And finally I guess I'd say that meshing is useful even among just 3 people who know each other. It has blue-sky possibilities that are really game-changing if adopted widely. I'm betting on both ;-)
