RE: PineTab early-adopter offering question - TechDragon - 06-04-2020 Phew, I was worried I’d missed it to. I’m extremely keen to get my hands on this hardware. Ideally two! (I want a dev tablet for my personal software too haha) I’ve got a serious need for cheaper hardware (tablets) and if we can squeeze our software onto it, it’s got a very real chance of getting the company to buy these things by the dozen. They look like a a game changer. RE: PineTab early-adopter offering question - Bragi - 06-08-2020 It's already the 8th, still nothing. Does anyone know when I can buy one?

We'll likely get an update once all the PinePhones are shipped. Keep an eye out for that shipping update and you'll hopefully receive a word on the PineTab status at the same time. RE: PineTab early-adopter offering question - Lex-2008 - 06-09-2020 To expand on previous comment, link to the shipping tread is <https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9942>, and most notably quote from one of recent updates to the first message: Quote:We're under constraints that we have no control over (e.g. border being closed between HK and mainland China), the shipping companies and carriers are under many constraints (self-imposed or imposed by regulators) and the logistic chain as a whole - including people - is under regulatory constraints. In short, current situation is not business as usual. I am getting many PMs and emails asking about status reports - as soon as I know something, I post it here, there is no need to PM or email me. Thank you for your continued patience! So it looks like if they start accepting orders sooner than later - it will add pinetabs to the end of shipping queue, but will not cause them to be shipped sooner. But will likely add more PMs and emails regarding shipping status :-) RE: PineTab early-adopter offering question - naruciakk - 06-09-2020 (06-09-2020, 02:58 AM)Lex-2008 Wrote: So it looks like if they start accepting orders sooner than later - it will add pinetabs to the end of shipping queue Maybe, but I still want to preorder one and patiently wait for it being delivered in June, July or August RE: PineTab early-adopter offering question - Bragi - 06-09-2020 (06-09-2020, 02:58 AM)Lex-2008 Wrote: To expand on previous comment, link to the shipping tread is <https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9942>, and most notably quote from one of recent updates to the first message: Thank you that explains a lot. I understand the HK/China/Corona issues that all play together. I just hoped I could at least preorder it then wait until it's being shipped. I've been waiting so long for this already.

I don't really care if it gets delayed, but I've found myself checking the store multiple days a day, every day, since the May update; so I'd really love to be able to buy it now, and then forget about it for a month or two, knowing that it's in the process of getting to me. I completely understand, though, that it's something they'd rather deal with later while all these other issues are occurring. So I'll just keep checking the store! RE: PineTab early-adopter offering question - emuchris - 06-09-2020 Does anyone know, is this thing supposed to be like the Pinetime, where its kind of in pieces when it arrives?

It should be "fully functional" like the PinePhone.
