For anyone interested in just how easy and fast it is to use the Grasshopper in public, here's a quick story:
My friend and I went to a smokeshop so he could get a bowl piece. After, we stopped in at Jack in the Box. On the way out to the car, upon leaving the building I turned on the Grasshopper. After about 5 steps I was hitting the unit. By the time we reached his car, no more than 25-30 feet away, I had the unit off, in my pocket, and was exhaling a nice hit above his vehicle. The whole thing took less than a minute, and I was pleasantly high. My friend didn't notice, but just looked at me.
This is exactly what I'm looking for!!! If I can walk to my room, click it on, walk to the back to let the dog out and be hitting it, I'm golden!
I've got a pre-order scheduled to ship in Feb, a blue Ti, SS case, extra batteries and such and really looking forward to it. May just cancel the case and get one of #Rachette 's leather cases, soooo sweet!
Have to say, I'm about 40 pages behind on this thread and catching up fast, and I really hope by the time I get there that things have turned for the better. If not, I don't think I can keep reading this one, you guys are terrible! Please take my opinion for just that and realize that it's from the perspective of someone that just ordered in December (found the thread late Nov) and hasn't been on the ride the whole time, and I acknowledge that.
But... this was a known start up company, putting out their first vap! As a general rule, I don't buy anything first run, even from known high standard companies like Honda or Toyota, because you know you'll have to live with the hiccups. I wait. How is it that everyone bought into the hype from the company that was trying to get you to help fund their project? From an outsiders perspective, fund raising to first runs being shipped in 2.5 - 3 years is pretty good for first time business owners/developers.
I hope everyone understands that I'm typing this with a smile on my face, I'm not trying to be antagonistic and find some humor in all of this. This truly was not intended to start a "this is my story and why" response (please). I'm really hoping when I catch up that shipping schedules are caught up, batteries are back in stock, all the early gremlins have been removed and everyone is talking about mods and usage!
