Notion Ink has declared a winner for the logo contest. It's logo #9. Did anyone of you here picked logo #9? I picked logo #5.

Week-End Mini-Special – VII CE and the Logo Winner!

Still uncertain if there will be any pre-orders in December it's all up to FCC to approve the device first:

We are on time for this and you could hold devices in your hands on or before Christmas (and as hinted earlier, if we miss Christmas, then CES or New Year). Pre-booking will start in early December (if the case id prior).

Interview with CEO

Couple of interesting points

1) Rohan : We are expecting to get FCC in the early 20s of December. Accordingly we will start shipping.
2) Rohan : There is one feature which no one knows about yet and will only know on launch!

Right. And in the blog he says if not shipping by Christmas then by New Year or CES a week and a half later - which, if it holds, is not too bad. About 6 months later than initially expected but not bad for a start up and for a product that, on paper at least, looks this promising.

I'll hold off getting one until a few review models have been seen in the wild and written about, but if it is 80% of what is expected it may be a very nice device.

No. 9 ??? Really ???
It's good to know my propensity for picking losers and disagreeing with the majority is still intact.

I'm hoping the early birds/developers that was lucky enough to get a device will get the permission to give there opinion.

Good point. On the other hand though, if they were not given that permission that in itself might be a bad sign.

Hm, you might be right there. On the other hand isn't this something pretty standard, signing a non disclosure agreement. I think it has more to do with the marketing/investor guys wanting to have control over the public release.

Yep, you're most likely right. On the other hand if I were them, I'd try to time it so those went out at the same time as the eval copies did and flood the market with, hopefully, positive reviews!

If they are talking about shipping in late December, early January, I'm hoping some will get reviewed and posted by mid December.

Well, well, well. It looks like I'm gonna have to dust off my contacts and see when they'll have units for review.

While they may be rarer then they are today non disclose agreements have been part of this industry for a long time and I've signed them with beta software.

It's very common on other sites to find an announcement of something along with the writer having permission to say that they can't release anything until some date has past.
