    Wait! People here, at FC, called BS??!?? On the GH?!? I must have missed that part, I thought we were unanimous in our positivity.

    I'm already warning y'all about any "MINE SHIPPED!!!!" announcements if they happen to be posted tomorrow 4/1....

    Their update from 3/15 said it was a two week trip, so do the math! :-) No one has anything like a tracking number yet, but we are actually getting close now.

    No worries- you've given us more concrete information on the GH than anybody else. If we all weren't so desperate for any details, it probably wouldn't have even caused a stir...

    It's on your site " Accessories – As far as I know, the accessories included with the Grasshopper will be the mouthpiece guard, the leather case, extra mouthpiece screens and the USB charging system. They had mentioned about possibly adding in a cleaning/loading tool. This tool would also help...

    The sleeve- OK, Buzz spread some misinfo, now we know which models do include it, straight from Trevor. Only people who read it from Buzz would ever have gotten the wrong idea, cause the GH folks never said it was included with the SS model. The battery and charger? C'mon- it's clearly...

    Jeez Louise, what a swamp pit of misinformation- sleeve, no sleeve, battery, no battery, charger, no charger...

    The thumb and index finger of my right hand are very stealthy.

    Yeah, when your "pen" is making huge clouds of vapor, no one is going to be suspicious because of the mouthpiece... And anyway, as Buzz keeps saying, it takes a few hits to even get hot enough that you'd need to use it, and if you turn it off between hits you'd probably never need it.

    Fuck, even talking about the boxes would be an improvement....

    The thing about the grounding strap was just a joke you know.... But anyway, the GH uses SMT- they aren't even working on the GH boards in that picture, way too big.

    They've shown plenty of pictures of their workspace, IN THE USA, with boxes and boxes of the various components, which they use to ASSEMBLE the GH IN THE USA.

    I'm just gonna assume that if they've got this far, they also have a business plan that makes sense...

    Because (just guessing, but that's a time honored tradition in this thread), a lot of their expenses were one time costs. Also, a small profit margin doesn't have to lead to small profits.

    If they send them by boat, then, yes, we are in for a wait. Well, more of a wait...

    The best possible units now may well not be the best possible units next year. I'm just commenting on us being beta testers. I think it's quite likely that refinements will be made and early adopters won't have them. Not talking about "what if the batteries start exploding?" or the circuit...

    I'd doubt the warrenty would cover something like the redesign of the screen they are doing now, or changes to the firmware, and any other improvements and refinements they might come up with farther on down the line...

    So the silicon mouthpiece is a standard accessory? That's new news, right?
