The first production batch of Phree is planned for January 2017 to start shipping Phree units to 8000+ backers according to the shipping queue, through the first quarter of 2017. The plan is to ship 250 units in the first month and increase production capacity to 2000 units per month by March. It will therefore take a few months of production to ship all the rewards.
As we build our manufacturing capacity, we will update on actual delivery dates for each reward.

In the meanwhile, it’s exciting to see how the market keeps moving rapidly towards pen computing and creativity, with the latest announcement by Microsoft of their Studio product and their early 2017 planned release of Windows 10 Creators Update. Here is a quote from CEO Satya Nadella in USA Today: “The last 10 years have seen a lot of innovation indexed largely towards content consumption. But the next 10 will be indexed toward content creation. It’ll be about what we can create”.
With Phree, you will be able to enjoy the functionality of Window 10 pen tools on any Windows system (including non-touch screens), not just Surface Pro or Studio.
As always, thank you for your continued support.
