i don't think that's feasible.  every manufacturer at least requires a deposit and i think that's 
not too much to ask for. they do need to have some working capital to build the modules.

i think, correct me if i'm wrong, all anyone is asking here is a more accurate delivery estimate 
even if that means saying "your order is gonna take 6 months because of _________".  

and i think some people have a hard time not feeling rubbed the wrong way when new 
modules in new formats are made available while their long back ordered module order has 
not been filled and they haven't been informed why this is the case when based on previous 
updates everything was moving forward to have their module shipped by such and such a 
date.

maybe what would be better is take orders and then take payment  when the module is ready to ship and not before  ?

While we were trying to locate
our missing boards and panels 
I guess people think we should 
have just sat on our hands doing
nothing?

Hell no, 
we've been busy finishing a lot
of loose ends such as the Tablas,
Modcan Banana format ZOs, and 
the Programmers.

This unscrupulous individual who
ran off with key parts for our 
productrion runs of ZOs, LPGs, 
and Saws put us several months
behind and left no note to us what
was happening so of course we 
had no definitive answer for 
anyone, (ourselves included).

The very moment that we recovered 
our essential and very expensive 
parts, (from his landlord) I made
a general announcement becuase at 
last I finally had ~something~ 
definitive to announce. 

Having just recovered 
everything, we are working like
mad to catch back up and seeing 
the general attitude expressed 
here, I will not be making any
statements about when they migh
ship - so as not to be crucified 
if I'm not absolutely right about
the ship dates.

We have slowly built this small 
run of Programmer modules quitely 
in the background over the past 
three-years and now, while we
were trying to make heads or tails
of what was happening with our
missing stuff... we kept busy
working. So please do not be mad
about the fact that we've released
them, instead be glad that we're 
still moving forward all the
time. 

Now, if you want one of these
Programmers, order one now because 
we will be making very few of them 
and they will sell out quickly.
We have already shipped several.
Frankly we are selling them to help 
cash flow in order to throw more 
money at the Sawtooth Animator and
Low Pass Gate Solution..

I do the best that I can and 
work seven days a week on this.

I apologize to everyone for this
it was wayyy beyond my control and 
I am juggling a lot getting back on
track. These have been exceedingly 
difficult times for us lately but we
have a good attitude and simply work 
harder. I am not offering any excuses
only facts.

Now, you know that we have just 
got our stuff back, please give us 
the opportunity to make good on our
promise.

Cynthia
