Update #8 · Jun 22, 2011 · 8 comments

Hello Kickstarters,

Wow, an incredible amount of activity has been happening since our last update 2 weeks ago. The molds are finally complete and we are running the last set of test batches to ensure consistent quality between lots. During this process, I decided to make some minor “under the hood” changes which you'll hear more about later as we release the initial units. The good news is the changes will improve your experience with the olloclip; unfortunately, the delay has pushed out our initial Kickstarter deliveries to mid-July. I will have a more definitive ship date sometime after the upcoming holidays...Not to worry, we want you to get your olloclip as fast as possible, but we also want you to be "wow'd" in the process. Personally, I have very high expectations for myself and the products I deliver and want nothing but the best for us both. You can also expect our online ordering solution to be up and running around the same time...as we're quite confident that the minute everyone sees you using your olloclip, they'll want one of their own.    

You should have also received your Kickstarter Surveys by now - and thank you to the 95% who completed and returned the survey so quickly. If you haven't received yours, please email me at kickstarter@olloclip.com. In addition, we will be sending you a short email confirming your olloclip configuration, address and other details. We'll let you know via this update page when the email is actually being sent. My email provider doesn't like it when I send out several thousand messages at once, so we'll be using a 3rd Party ESP (email service provider). These systems are never perfect so, once you get the email, you will be asked to confirm your receipt; as this will help ensure we have the correct contact information. We will also send you a confirmation email when we ship your olloclip so that you know your wait is almost over.

While summer time in Southern California is a beautiful place to relax and enjoy, everyone here is busy working to finalize all the details necessary to deliver you your olloclip, as well as prepare to introduce the olloclip to the rest of the world. We're so excited for these first milestone to be completed and we couldn't have done it without you.

Thanks again!

Patrick

PS a few of you have asked about the white iPhone 4 wondering if the olloclip will fit on it, the answer is absolutely.
