Geode Update on Manufacturing & CTIA Award
Hello to all our kickstarter supporters!
We really want to thank you all for your continued support and super-positive comments. As we are working to get you a wonderful product, the support you provide us with through your feedback is very helpful and meaningful.
The Geode was given 2 very prestigious awards yesterday at CTIA. The competition was fierce and we are quite amazed at the reception and recognition we received!
# 1 Mobile App
# 1 Mobile Consumer Electronic Accessory
We couldn't ask for anything better and thank our supporters for their part in helping us achieve this goal!
Manufacturing has begun as scheduled and I am attaching a few pictures of your Geode being born; we hope you enjoy them.
Also, our CTO has come up with a great way to use the e-ink screen to render the product SKU number and individual product number (photo attached). The cool thing with e-ink is this consumes zero power to maintain on the display while shipping. The image of course can be replaced once you receive your Geode with your barcodes.
Thank you again,
Jon and the whole iCache team

According to the icache facebook page, Kickerstarter backers are all getting the black/amber ones. There's no choosing. Makes sense as they were probably sent to manufacturing first and the colors were introduced much later. At least you'll be first to get one as a kickstarter backer!
Creator Derek Kolakowski on June 2, 2012
According to the order page on the website, there looks to be four color options: http://www.icache.com/buy/

Like Jason asked; when can I choose colors of the Geode? And of course which are the options?
Creator Jason Beatdown Jr Beaton on May 16, 2012

It would be awesome to get a hand on that app! I can't wait to see the product and seeing the app would be like the night before Christmas...

Creator John Lyman on May 10, 2012
Can't wait to receive mine. Do you a mock up of the final version back of the product.
Creator Corey Barberie on May 10, 2012
Is is possible to have a default e-ink "barcode" that the case would revert to when not in use? I am thinking about some text with an "if lost please call" or a picture that the user can set.
Creator Marcus Frasier on May 10, 2012
Pretty cool packaging idea
