We are in control of when the listing goes live, once the stock is in place. Currently we have the listing turned off. We also have it turned off in the UK even though the stock is ready there. This is to hopefully mitigate against the distortion of third party resellers buying up stick in the UK and offering it at very high prices to desperate US customers. Once the stock is in place and and we are sure that we have enough for another invite in the US , the Uk and some other amounts in Europe, we will turn on the listing and send out another invite. The listing will not just go live when it wants.
 
Am I missing something or am I misunderstanding what Chris said? To me it sounded like they had already sent out invites in the US or did he mean another invite world wide?
 
Just fill that Amazon bucket to max before they do go on sale so everyone can checkout. That's what I would do if I were them.
 
South Park did an episode about Amazon and their fulfillment centers and they had him looking just like that.
 
A question for those that have had the tricorder for a few weeks.

How often do you play with it now? And please be honest.

More than once a day?
Once a day?
Every few days?
Once a week?
Played with it the first few days, now it sits on the shelf.

Every few days.
I'm more of a TNG-VOY and ENT era prop fan, but this original Tricorder is an iconic piece and the functionality and price were too good to not get on board before the after market prices went sky high.
I didn't buy the WandCo Comm or Phaser but I had to have the Tricorder.

Bro this is one of those things that after the initial fiddling around with it should just remain a display piece with maybe a once or twice a year take off the shelf kinda thing. It's gonna wear out quickly if it's played with everyday.

Every day since I’ve had it. Honest answer. Sometimes it’s just on my table next to me while I watch tv with the audio or engineering screen running. I’ve had to charge it 3-4 times already. At first I was using the disc bypass feature only but I’ve started moving them around lately. It’s pretty cool putting different discs in the right hand slot, hearing the bridge button sound, and seeing that function launch.
 
And then I told em. Amazon US was handling the Tricorders……
