Shipping BRCKs!
"Shipping BRCKs", if you say that title out loud, and quickly enough, you’ll know how we feel just about now… :)
First shipments: July 17th
That date above is the most important thing that everyone wants to know. Next week we’ll test the BRCK production line, and ship out the first batch of devices. Finally.
It’s been all quiet on the BRCK front since May as we buckled down on two things; first, making sure the quality of the cases was up to par, and second, using this time to keep improving the software. I can tell you that we’re finally there on both items!
We’re all extremely grateful for your patience, and we’re excited to finally get the BRCK into everyone's hands.
Nairobi Launch
If you’re in Nairobi, we’re having a launch on Wednesday, July 9th at the Sarit Centre. Our partners, Sandstorm, have been kind enough to let us do a “takeover” of their store, and we’ll have BRCKs on display, showing how they can be used for business, personal use, and for connecting to the Internet of Things (IoT). You’ll have a chance to use BRCKs, a few will walk away with free devices, and you can ask the team any questions you might have. Come by and see us.Written by ehersman

Very happy for you. What plans do you have for the rest of Africa? Waiting eagerly in Nigeria
Oh my! Missed the launch. When do you show case again?
[…] The first shipments for BRCK, which raised $172,107 via Kickstarter, are on July 17. […]
This is what I’ve been looking for especially with my looming move to a rural setting for some long term projects.
I think I want one… or three !!
