Progress Update Discussion Nov 29/2018

True, but that’s not quite the same thing. They’ve reduced production, but there might be other limits to reaching 100 headsets per day (like the need to hire/train more staff). From the link:

It sounds like there could potentially be other component quality/quantity issues (like LCD panels).

So it sounds like (with housings delivered and tested) Pimax will only be at half capacity for the assembly line. This is not even the expected rate for the end of last month.

I’m hopeful, but still worried I won’t have my headset by Christmas (backer # 31xx).

Regardless, I do NOT want Pimax to scrimp on QA. The MOST important thing is that the headsets are of good quality. No more scraps of foam on the lenses, no more lighthouse issues, etc. Note that I didn’t list software; we all know that software can never be bug free (seriously), so Pimax simply needs to strive for zero software defects.

I’m not trying to be critical, I’m attempting to help Pimax improve, towards the goal of reaching the expectations of a true international company.
