Acrylic case just arrived in warehouse and air mouse will be on next week. February and partial 2GB board already in warehouse so do Wifi/BT module. We should able to ship out on next week.
Sometimes I can get heart attack, just like two days ago that we got informed few weeks ago Taiwan earthquake cause Realtek NIC chip into severe allocation issue, due to the fab factory need to destroy the silicon growth on that period of time. We need to quickly secure the NIC chip allocation, this impact one week scehdule on second part of March production but still able to maintain on the deliver schedule plan. There is always full of surprise when dealing with production, when I read the Taiwan earth quake news few weeks ago, I totally have no idea that this news already impacted me.
Thnaks for the update TL LIm. Your presence here is very helpful.
The whole campaign was also very exciting and the Pine itself has an even more exciting prospect for all of us.
However, -and although I woudn't want to spoil anyone with complaints- there are a few things that should have been done different if not better.
If I knew that there would be such a delay for the airmouse, I wouldn't have added it in the first place. As far as I remember, there wasn't any indication on the airmouse's listing that its purchase would delay the shipment. For the same reason I chose the acrylic open enclosure instead of the white ABS plastic because the ABS one was supposed to delay the shipment for April...
Moreover, I don't see the reason why the backerit surveys of backers like me have already been locked down since last week, as my order has to wait for at least another week's time for the airmouse to become available. If it wasn't locked down, I would have probably added another 1-2 items.
Anyway, I eagerly await for my boards and have high expectations for my project!
Yes. You are right. If the airmouse reaches your warehouse next week and the orders containing airmouses ship out also during the coming week, then you are still in March timeframe.
Anyway, I could have added another board or an additional module if my account was not locked down. Cheers.
