When will you update the Production Status, steve?

[steve]

Your welcome,

 

Now I need to thank everybody for their patience and pass along an ancient
piece of wisdom that I just made up.

 

“If you keep pulling the carrot out of the ground to see if it has grown,
you’ll starve the rabbit.”

 

So. Let the carrot grow for another week and I’ll do another Monday update.

So how long do I have to wait to buy it after MP has started?
Is it days? weeks?

I'm trying to clarify that now. Yeild is good there will not be another
cycle. Test throughput, how long it takes to test the phone is being
improved. One production starts we will just build continuously, The build
process is very fast. The test on the back end, lets say to catch the 2%
of failure is the gating item, but that can be parallelized somewhat,
Then you have to figure the shipping. do I ship a lot per week, build two
weeks and ship, etc. 
 
What is your dissertation on?

Just to clarify, what kind of time range would be needed?  A week (4
weeks?) for production, plus another week (4 weeks) for testing?
If testing shows problems, possibly another 6 weeks for another cycle?
 
I don't want some sort of indirect promise on the delivery date -- I
know it's too fuzzy.  Just some help interpreting the meaning of the
update.
Personally I'm already committed and don't mind having some more time
of productivity on my dissertation before the sudden halt that will
arrive when the phone arrives :-D

Minor correction, After we complete the test on the Pre MP, if we hit the
 Yeild numbers required, we start MP on the 9th at the earliest!. So, I'd
    

put
  

 the window at May 9 to may 16th. Just to be accurate.

 The last Pre MP is done and mass production is slated to start on may 9.
 
 
 Phones will start rolling off the lines, they will go through test, They
 will be shipped to distribution.
 
 When the Phones hit the dock and are ready to ship, I'll do a press
    

release
  

 and announce to the list and the store will open.
 
 So you have 3 steps: build phone. test phone. ship phone.
 
 Then we take orders. I was very adamament about having phones in the
    

disty
  

 ready to ship before I opened the web shop.
 
 Also, I need to update everybody on software.
 
 Sorry for the short response, but those are the facts as I have them

 Hi,
 
 the weekend is almost gone (actually it is already here in Germany,
 where it's 3:00 now), so where are the updates? :D
 
 greetings from Europe,
 
 Sebastian
