Coming up on 20% with the campaign. I assume most orders will come when people get the tablet, hence the 45 days.

Had talks with composite manufacturers beginning of the week, see if they can help out or speed things up!

Dirk, I like your optimism of less than 45 days until people get the tablet into their hands. It gives hope to those of us who have accepted the situation to be that when Jolla said May, they meant May 2016 and everything else was a typo.

Hey, I am loving the idea, but are you gonna cover the inside With a fiber that wont scratch the back of the tablet as you pull it back and forth?
Good Luck, depending on Your answer ill buy one

There's a velvet lining:

What you get

You will get a carbonfiber/epoxy casing with a nice satin finish. Rounded edges and soft velvet inner coating to prevent scratches.

I hope you (we) will try again when the tablet comes to us. There isn't many people who would buy protection before the stuff that needs protection.

I've just been notified that I've received a full refund from the carbonfiber casing project. I hope Dirk will be able to restart the project later...
