Hey! Congratulations! the next step is an ARM laptop?
If it can beat Google’s Chromebook Series 3 one in regards to hardware AND price, why not!? :^)
299 for a ARM laptop is very expensive to me. any way, I dont think in a finish laptop, but just a screen and hardware and the rest made be yourself is gone to be more cheap than the samsung chromebook.
Congrats!
>$6,709: Indiegogo Platform fee (9.0%)
Why Indiegogo charged so much as 9%? According to their pricing http://www.indiegogo.com/how-pricing-works-on-indiegogo fee as low as 4% if goal was reached. The goal of 50000$ was reached.
It looks like they applied IGG platform fee and then added 5% of it as a goal-achievement bonus.
So effective IGG fee is 4% as promised.
3% payment fee happens before IGG sees any money…
So the question is – when do you expect to ship?
One week after the money arrives.
well, the campaign costed near 28% of raised funds…
The cost is about 7% of the whole funds.
$2236: Payment processing fee
, was all the payment received in pennies, that they have to put in human resources to count and process it :p
When can we expect the production and deliveries?
The estimated date is the first weekend of Dec.
Is it possible to put a 64GO SD CARD in a cubieboard or not ?
Yes cubieboard supports 64GB SD card.
Wow indiegogo is expensieve, They should have had an maximum rate, for example à 1000 for these large campaigns.
But on the other hand, without services like indiegogo “we” wouldn’t have come so far.
Great job on creating a large communitie of supporters, looking forward to get my hands on a board and developing some software for it.
Regards
Yes, indiegogo is expensive, but we have to use their service. You are right, without indiegogo, we can not come so far. Thank you.
Out of curiosity. Have you researched all the other crowd funding sites and if so what was the benefit of using Indiegogo?
We have discussed on irc about choosing the crowd funding sites, and indiegogo is the most fit one.
Yesterday recieved my cubieboard, it looks good. Very well manufactured and very neatly packed.
Thanks, just in time so I can play with it during my Christmas Holliday.
Hello,
Do you plan to create another campaign or make the board avaiable affordably by other means?
There were Cubieboards available at shopify and miniand.

Did you take part in the Indiegogo campaign? If so, you should be receiving now the tracking code for your order.
Most parcels have been sent and should be on their way.
Did you receive an email around 20Dec to 5Jan, asking you to confirm your postal address?
Why I don’t want moderat my com and answer ?
Actually here is not the best place to ask a random question of cubieboard, the best place is the forum. The comments are intended for discussing the posts.
I’m sorry next time I ask my question in the forum and thanks for the answer
