Either way, it's the usual grease the wheels when the backers get too irate in public. I'm not going to hold my breath, but it should make for an interesting 2 weeks, with what I suspect will be an anti-climactic end.
If they have nothing then they are just digging their hole further. So I suspect they have
something, but as has always been the case, it's far production ready.
Even the update says it all:
Two weeks from today
Buys us another two weeks.
we'll have the first public showing of the camera at an event
Which we won't name, so it obviously can't be that public.
And of course we can't show you anything before then, and possibly after either.
where we expect to receive significant feedback and publicity.
Feedback = an opportunity to go back to the drawing board.
Shortly after that weeklong event,
That buys us an extra week, along with however we define "shortly".
we'll be working towards announcing our production schedule.
So after the 2 weeks + 1 week event + "shortly" (let's say 1 month) we'll start to
work toward announcing some sort of production schedule.
So not actually announcing anything, or shipping anything, but "
working toward" announcing!
And still after a year and half, and two weeks away from a public demo, they still haven't shown a single thermal image
