    I’m interested, despite Bezos’ involvement, but I’m going to wait until I can read up on what it’s like to own one for a while.

      That’s about how I feel too. Worth considering. My hesitation was reinforced, perhaps unfairly, at a prototype/mockup event. It wasn’t very long ago, and prototype had a little too much slap-together feel. I know it was just a prototype, but I was hoping for something that looked a little closer to ‘ready for production’ if not exactly ‘finished’.

      New factory, new build methodology, new employees. I’m going to need about a year of consumer feedback, personally. But I’m glad there are more intrepid souls ready to buy now.
