I just reviewed all of the "old" kit orders (not the new stuff), and it looks like around 325 or
so. The 'Top 5' on backorder are:
MOTM-190 46
MOTM-300 31
MOTM-800 31
MOTM-490 30
MOTM-310 27
this does not include the upcoming MOTM-890 uMixer. This includes the requests for 'redeemed'
kits (discounted/free).
Tomorrow I will inventory the panels and parts. The resistors/caps are kitted by a third party. I
∗think∗ that I have about 55 '190 kits in stock, so those at least are covered. The others are
pathetic and I'll start counting Monday (tomorrow I have to built 5ea MOTM-940s and move
furniture). I am low on '910s and will start that process (built by assembly house). '960s should
be in stock this coming Friday.
I will send time the next few weeks alternating between kitting and soldering on the
(ever-shrinking) assembled backlog. You can only count for so long, then your brain is oatmeal. I
ran into a fence today chasing a tennis lob and for a while I ∗really∗ felt like my brain was
oatmeal (good thing I don't bruise easily).
It will take until the end of Feb. to kit and ship most of these out. I promise to do the best I
can to ship your order. I am thankful that I have customer willing to wait extended periods of
time. I also need to work on the WaveWarper pcb and get the switch assemblies started for the
kits on order (about 45 at this point). At least I'm not bored :)
