    First batch is everyone who paid at least 399 euro on Kickstarter

    So that's 10 times a First Batch and 1 Super Backer, any info on the other backers levels?

  • honeyhoney Member

    Some guys have upgraded to First batch after the KS campaign. I believe it is around 20 pcs now.

  • RobinVanKekemRobinVanKekem Member

    I assume the first order at the manufacturer is larger than 20pcs.
    So the others are to create a complete send batch for the kickstarter campaign guys? :D

  • EmileEmile Administrator, Athom

    Basically, we'll ship as fast as we can make them at the start of next year.

    Look, it was our first run at the production & self-test :-) Currently making it better (and faster, mainly) so we can produce them at lightspeed.

  • gvanlubeekgvanlubeek Member

    Very impressive!

  • Fire69Fire69 Member

    Cool !

  • TheoDeKoningTheoDeKoning Member

    Even with Homey's, you have a manager. :-)

    Great to see this progress. What happens if you say 'Hey Homey' standing in front of that table? Do they all respond?

  • woeiwoei Member

    You have to be very silent when approaching the table. Otherwise they will start responding and become aware of each other. Once this happens they will start communicating and create a general combined awareness. Before you know it they will be plotting to take over the world. We can't have that. That's my thing! NARF

    Damn, now the 'Pinky and the Brain Brain Brain Brain' theme song won't go away ;)

    It looks great to see that Homey herd on the table :)
    Btw is it me or do they look more shiny and plastic than the one on the mainpage and video's? Also is the central metal ring (IR port) gone?

    They're really hard to photograph, and don't look plastic at all in real life, we've made sure of that :) The led ring is a killer for cameras!

    Jup, that's gone. They have embedded the IR in the led ring :smile:

    "a general combined awareness" What A Great Idea! Anybody already working on an Api for that?

    Were going to ship the first batch Homeys next Tuesday!

    That's today!
  • MarcoFMarcoF Member
    @jovink;
    O Yeah!

    @FirstBatch;
    Let us known if you receive Homey and hopefully you boys and/or girls see some time to post some unbox/install/first use videos :)
  • ReflowReflow Member
    Whoho congratz to the lucky First batch! I guess you will receive them tomorrow? @Emile ; Is Athom sending them with PostNL including track&trace code? :smiley: 
  • EmileEmile Administrator, Athom
    I've spent the whole day tracking down a bug that prevented the updater from working when you came from a specific version. It was something stupid in the end but oh well... Tomorrow we're going to flash all the Homeys for the first shipment and then ship them (I'll make photos), but I guess shipping them will be Friday. That gives me one day more to fix some small bugs so the out of the box experience is pretty good :-) 

    Damn I'm nervous shipping them.. Haha!

    That`s 1st January. Isn`t that a bank holiday in NL? Oh these predictions.... :smile: 
    Thanks for the trello page. It`s nice. Just keep it up to date.
  • EmileEmile Administrator, Athom
    Oh my bad, I meant we'll be shipping them Thursday :) 
  • TheoDeKoningTheoDeKoning Member
    Friday no delivery I think. Shall mis that on Saturday. So if I am lucky I can pick it up on Monday afternoon. *Sniff* 
  • JaxcJaxc Member
    Well Emile, kids grow up pretty quick, and before you know it you have to let them go, and explore the world on there own.. So let go, the longer you hold on the harder the letting go gets ;)
