my thoughts on this. as I have posted before in this thread.... the initial start up cost is where the dollars are at.
even if you get 6 of of 10 you NEED to proceed with this. you WILL make money and people are GOING to buy this case.
at least 6 of of 10 is not coming 100% out of pocket. a lot of companies do not require XX number to be bought in beta form before the product is made. so making a number of 10 a requirement in order to proceed is silly if you ask me. because once you have your mold dialed in you can make these per order or make them in bulk and sell as you please.
so 6 out of 10 is better than ZERO out of them do not shaft those 6 who have already paid. because people want to SEE a product first before the commit to buying it.

Just a suggestion...
If you are so sure on this then why don't you take the initial hit of start-up costs and investments? Nobody is getting the shaft because it had already been stated what would happen if the OP could not get the inaugural 10 to buy. -AND-
They will get their money back should this project not come to fruition.
While I too agree that a finished product will further entice a buyer who is teetering on the edge to buy (or not) this is Chris's gig unless you'd like to take the loss should 10 people be found prior to the deadline that has been now extended,
make sense?

Hi John, a few things here.
Perhaps you are not familiar with the term "PM" but it means private message, as in a message on the forum. I do not have any messages from you in my inbox, however I did recieve your e-mail. As for your payment, well your e-mail was sent to me at 11:05 A.M..(in which you said you sent a payment) It is now 1:11 and I do not have any new payments in my paypal. Perhaps it is just taking awhile to go through if you actually did pay. Are you sure you sent it to the correct address if you did send a payment. Let me know in a PM what paypal address you sent it to.
Ok John, got your PM now and the payment. It's ok those things happen all the time just a simple mistake. Glad it was something simple like that, I didn't want to go through the whole prove I didn't recieve a payment or any of that stuff.
Anyways, if you look through the thread between pages 7-12 there are pictures so you can see the blue and black carbon fiber. Let me know which color you decide on as soon as possible.

I'm very interested.
I'm having a hard time imagining how a one piece case would fit around the contours of the chin area though.
I'm thinking the case could be molded to fit very closely to the original shape of the chin if the Droid could be inserted with the chin end sliding in first, under the "ledge" that comes over the chin, then the opposite end of the Droid (standby/power button) snaps down into the case. The case would look something like this (side, cutaway view):
Ease of removal would be an absolute necessity for me, as I would like to be able to use the oem car dock.
Chris, what do you think about my idea for the case design? Would it be possible for the case to wrap over the top of the chin area as in my drawing?
Payment sent. Black case ordered.
My wife has a Droid HTC Eris, will you be making cases for those as well?
