I have asked them for a quotation (using STL data). Independently of
the resulting quality we have to expect that a single set of plastic parts
costs more than a complete Freerunner...
So it confirms (again) our observation that all rapid prototyping methods
are too expensive.
I.e. we have to get quantity, i.e. enough people who clearly want a (new)
case. This is more about revitalizing this community, and creating new
hype for completely free and open smartphones.
Ideas?
