[0:52] <GreyWolfNZ> August and still no TB , not even news or even an email to tell people who have ordered what is going on.
[0:52] <viridior>
[0:53] <Corsac> GreyWolfNZ: ???in the summer??? is still the official word on it
[0:53] * merp (~merp@207.224.113.38) Quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
[0:53] <Corsac> GreyWolfNZ: which can (will?) mean sept 21st :)
[0:54] <GreyWolfNZ> last email i had from them was "The current Touch Book production is in stand-by and will resume in late July, so current orders will ship in August."
[0:56] <Corsac> yeah, which is not on the front page (so it's not exactly ???public???, imho). And it does mean it could ship aug 31st :)
[0:56] <GreyWolfNZ> was supposedly from their customer service people ..
[0:56] <Corsac> basically, you shouldn't hold your breathe, the only real date will be when your credit card will be charged and you'll receive an order confirmation
[0:56] <GreyWolfNZ> not that there is any customer service ..

[0:57] <GreyWolfNZ> too bad it could have been a great product but as of now i have the sad feeling it is going to be a big nothing with the kind of customer relations skills they seen to have
[0:58] <Corsac> I guess you're already one year late
[0:58] <GreyWolfNZ> ?
[1:00] <Corsac> we already have seen a great (though rough) product
[1:00] <Corsac> and we already have know their customer relations skills
[1:01] <Corsac> and we already know their developers relations skills, too
[1:01] <GreyWolfNZ> well lookign at all the comments yes it might be a great product (and that is why i ordered one) but it seems very very rough on both hardware and OS side
[1:02] <Corsac> if you're looking for an ipad you're at the wrong place
[1:02] <GreyWolfNZ> if i was lookign fro an ipad i will not be there that's for sure :-)
[1:02] <GreyWolfNZ> but i am not :-)
[1:04] <GreyWolfNZ> just a little bit of news, just a little of customer support. after all we are waiting for those TB and we chose them over the IThingy and others
[1:05] <Corsac> IThingy?
[1:06] <GreyWolfNZ> my name for the Ipad
[1:06] <GreyWolfNZ> just a thing
[1:07] * merp (~merp@207.224.113.38) has joined #touchbook
[1:07] <mjrosenb> ok, so if i order one of these things now, i will eventually get a piece of hardware that has some relation to the tb that they previously shipped?
[1:09] <GreyWolfNZ> may be :-) somebody somewhere must know (hopefully)

[2:20] <Gumboot> It seems like all the ARM netbooks are hard to get.
[2:20] <Gumboot> They seem to get announced and then delayed.
[2:22] <Gumboot> I'm wondering if a lot of them are sold with specs based on those presented by the comparatively-few chip vendors and there are complications in living up to those specs.
[2:23] <Gumboot> This wouldn't surprise me, because once you add an OS everything gets ten times slower.
