We will be hosting a set of open days in London, Berlin, Shenzen and the Bay area once the first batch of the test shuttle comes through.

And when do you expect that to be?

Since you're covering the NRE you must be a well-capitalized group. How much is your NRE cost? >$5 million? Do you have a loan to cover this, angels, or is it cash in-hand?

You have job openings listed, have you ever produced an ASIC before yourself?

Why do you think you can ship by December? Do you have any agreements in place with manufacturers and chip fabs?

Thats such a small device...

Heat wont be an issue? Huh

Not with our magic flux capacitor Grin

. All in time my friend. Basic technical specs will be on the second post soon.

With all the ASIC scams out there, be careful with flip answers like this. Could backfire. I'd suggest either going with a general answer or saying you're playing that close to your chest for now, tech specs to come. Keep it professional is what I'm saying. This kind of answer seems evasive and dismissive, makes me question your professionalism too, which is strange considering you claim to be covering the NRE which indicates a high level of seriousness in this endeavor.

You are correct, that answer did seem a bit out of place. Have to apologies for that, but please understand that we will be only able to release most the details once we are ready to launch. Mainly for competitive reasons but I am able to inform you that the team does have experience in the semiconductor industry and we are working with a reliable design house that is familiar with the process of our first ASIC design.

As I mentioned above, all in time. This thread is just a placeholder to inform the community that there will be an alternative supplier in the market soon.
