Hmmm. If we could get rid of the crap sounds they will build into it, be sure they've got things like quantization etc. right this time, and know we could use the stuff we (I) have created for the Orba 2 with it - well maybe. But even then only at the early bird price, I think.
It might feel too much like being bitten twice.
So that's where they are spending resources, instead of finalizing already sold half-baked devices. Explains a lot.
Spent a dollar to ask a question about Orba2 development on kickstarter.

Elements of this new device sound similar to the Orba. Wonder if there will be any hacking crossover.
