Kickstarter

We've all seen that movie where a plane is on a mountain and barely enough room is left for take off. Suspense builds and it barely lifts off as it reaches the edge and the movie continues. We kinda experienced that with this Kickstarter project. Their was a point where I thought we weren't gonna make it. Thank goodness we did. We shipped out the replacement styluses to select backers and you should be receiving them soon. At the bottom is a vid of my 3 year old niece using Estylo 1.8.

We realized that you can't please everybody. Even if Estylo turned into a machine gun and gave you massages some people would still complain. We will continue to improve Estylo and Estylo 2 is definitely in the works. But our current collective creative and engineering energy is being focused on our next project FastType. FastType is a new way to type really fast with just 1 hand or thumb. A brief video is provided in update #22.

I can't say too much about it yet except that the physical hardware version of FastType (not pictured) is pretty dope and futuristic. We have 2 really talented electrical engineers and a guy from Intel that is helping with the software. More info later and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for pushing us forward and for supporting this project.

Cool we're alive! Just wanted to give thanks to all the backers for your patience. We've contacted every backer, about 1% hasn't responded back. Those who have reconfirmed address have received the Estylo's and the rest have shipped which should be arriving anytime soon.

We will scroll through our comments and send backers who received an Estylo that didn't work upon arrival a new one. We've started contacting some and the rest will be contacted by the end of this week.

Thank you for pushing us forward and being honest with your critiques. They motivated us to keep on going and improving. With your support we were able to exponentially improve our manufacturing process and greatly improve the functionality of Estylo's main tip. Happy holidays and happy new year!

p.s. The mexican government didn't grant us the 'Plai Innovations' name so we're going to rebrand as 'NYON Innovations'. Here's a quick vid on what's next from us.

Remember that the front tip works in various angles but must be somewhat centered. The back tip must also be somewhat centered but works in less angles.

For those who pledge $13,$22,$25,$30,$45,$58 and your color of choice is black, please check your email. Your order is ready to ship. Any questions email shipping@plai.tv
