EDIT: This was not correct. John got the time estimation mixed up with the Sword controllers apparently.
So I got this mail from Pimax:
“Hi Staffan;
Good day.
We received your request that you want Pimax send the DMAS with 8KX, right? As we know, DMAS is not available now, and we are not sure which day it will be ready. Please do NOT worry, we suppose that the DMAS willl be available after 5 months. So please confirm again if you agree that Pimax send the DMAS to you with 8KX. Thanks.
John”
I ordered my 8KX November 1 in 2019 so I’ve been patiently waiting for over a year but this is disheartening to say the least.
I believe he is looking to hear an official update on timeline as in theory last official claimed production was to start this month which would suggest 5 to 6 months from now would be excessive.
We did do another test run but there was a small flaw in the tooling, shouldn’t be much of a snag though. We’ll add some detail in the upcoming update.
