There are also other good deals going on over here: http://www.ebuyer.com/daily-deals

 

I'm not sure, don't take my word for it but I think that ebuyer is UK only. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but I do want to warn you that Ebuyer is a UK site so that's why.

Is also the same price on Amazon.co.uk. Amazon does ship to mainland Europe.

 

Btw, I ordered one.

Hmmmm.... amazon or ebuyer? They both have good customer service, they both have good RMA. You made me think now thx allot!  :angry:

Hmm. I debated getting one a while back, although it is £20 off now I'm still on the fence about it.

 

I have followed it from the start and the progress seemed promising, with teksyndicate really advocating the technology.

 

Although, when it finally came around to public release it just dropped off the radar.

 

Looking around at YouTube videos, etc.. the actual usage of it is rather gimiky at the moment. No real implementation or usage other than for a bit of fun.

 

Although this price drop does say to me they are trying to do 1 of 2 things; a PR stunt to spread awareness/sell more units or a prospected V2 is coming out in the near future.

 

Either way, still on the fence, but to be honest, with it in its current state although my urge is just yelling "buy it buy it buy it buy it buy it" I think I'm going to pass until the technology is more developed.

 

Still looks promising though.

Keep in mind that most reviews on amazon and in general are from non techy people who were expecting it to be plugNplay which it isn't. To get it to work properly you are required to play around with some settings and since I'm getting it to make it work with my arduino ofcourse I'll be doing some hacking anyway

I know.

 

I instantly disregarded the amazon reviews when I read them, they were obviously from people who had just seen it on amazon and never followed it.

 

Although, even with customising it like I would end up doing, i'm not sure i'd have a usage for it. 

 

Like I said, I've watched video's of it in use on tech-based channels and the implementation, especially software side, just doesn't quite seem ready yet.

You got a point there, in terms of regular uses there aren't many but when it comes to implementing it into projects or hacking it, it's awesome. I'm going to try to make a gestured control system which controls lighting and general things around my room

Depending on where you live it may only take 2 days, I live in london and the 5days delivery only take 2 days here and with amazon sometimes only 1 day

i live on the east cost and most times it will turn up on the 5th day
