David,

I presume this control has many applications beyond Star Wars ...

It could be used to play 270 driving games, such as Spy Hunter.

And it's effectively an analogue joystick, right ??  So this opens up a multitude of other games that could be played.

I really disliked that too.  I'm "not a customer" - I didn't preorder and am damn glad I refrained.  I would like to be a customer, but given everything that has gone on, I'm going to have to sit back and wait for quite a few people to order ahead of me and report positively before I'll send any money.

If being a prospective customer, but not someone who has been taken for a ride yet, gives me no right to an opinion... it probably also gives David no right to future customers.

In other news, the LL Thruster is nearly complete as well.  All we need to do is assemble them and they're done!

Also, as I stated in the past, if you want a full refund for your "pre-order", all you have to do is ask and I'll make it happen.  I feel really awful for making everyone wait for so long.  As someone else mentioned, I did hit a few brick walls, that fricken' powdercoating being the mother of all walls! 

As txtworld mentioned, the wait is unacceptable.  I agree wholeheartedly which is why I have stood by my refund policy from the beginning.  Aside from that, I don't appreciate the remainder of his conjecture which is somewhat inflammatory.  However, I suppose I can understand it IF he was on the pre-order list himself.  :-)

So, any of the few pre-orders that find themselves wanting a refund, let me know and it's done.  Like I said before, I feel bad for making you wait and, looking back, I think the whole pre-order idea was a mistake given the unforeseen delays.

Havok,  I looked back and I don't see any email from you a month ago.  I'm usually really good about getting back to people, but I don't see any correspondence from you that I didn't already respond to.

Ok, that's it for now.

Ahhhh, the lost son returns after vanishing without a word ! Hooray !! He was in Sydney for a month (I wonder on who's money ?). No, that explains a lot. We all know that Australia is still not yet connected to the internet, so it was impossible for him to give a shout from down-under. Figures.
And on goes this "attitude". David's "THE man". "You know dude, I go away from my business for a month and have no clue what they're up to all that time, because -you know- that didgeridoo-phone couldn't reach the US of course".

"Like, there's a guy at my plant running the show (what a great choice of word on that, because that is what this entire story reminds me off) and "APPARANTLY" (what kind of businessman are you , if I were in your shoes and if I knew about these issues and were _REALLY_ feeling awfull about the delay, I would know every ---smurfing--- detail about the progress and be at their "(my staff)" backs ALL the time !!!) they have made some progress. So are YOU not sure if they made some progress, or are THEY not sure ??? (I guess both)

Then comes this line:
If I understood correctly, we're at or near assembly time.  If this is the case, that means for all intents and purposes we're practically done.

That's 5 (Five) BIG "IF"s in a row. I just can't believe the people who have pre-ordered this still have faith after again and again reading this stuff.

My favorite soccer team has a motto: "Geen Woorden Maar Daden" = No Words But Actions.

Might be one to hang over your bed/business.
