When do y’all think Batch 1 is gonna ship? Early mid or late June?
My guess is mid/late June for the black and gray models.
Early/mid July for the interesting models since there are like 6 batches of those for July.
Go Team Sage!
What it’s like to be in Batch 1 Sage.
Economy class, emergency row, but aisle seat.
I’ve been lurking in Batch 0.
Soon brother, it’ll be worth it for the sick ass green one.
Yes, a great destination.
A lot more activity in that thread
Lots of impatience; I’m over there watching for updates and trying to defend Framework.
We batch 1 people are so much more reasonable.
(only those who picked sage of course)
But I think we’re coping.
I am in no hurry. It arrives when it arrives.
Definitely excited for reviews/unboxings, but I can wait. It has already been 2 months, what is another month or two?
If it was here at the end of June I could take it on a multi-week trip replacing two devices at once and saving some serious weight in my personal bag. But it will not be an issue if it does not arrive by then. Still hopeful though
Always had the impression that the dates communicated were not final and more like best case estimates. Hoped for an earlier shipping but not surprised with possible delays. Not a fan of the radio silence though. Hope we get some more clarity soon.
Don’t remember when I last was that excited for a laptop. Hope it’s as epic as the limited info out there makes it seem. Reviews will help us ease the waiting for sure.
Framework is on a streak with me this year. I went all in and am also replacing my outdated desktop. Both framework desktop and laptop will help me greatly minimize my everyday tech setup.
I always take a release date in juxtaposition to the word ‘pre-order’ as hypothetical at best.
This may sound harsh, but I believe some people set themselves up for a frustrating experience. This was easily avoidable by putting some thought in what may happen behind the scenes.
I concur regarding the lack in communication, there is potential for amelioration.
We should keep in mind though that Des was elevated to Product Manager and a new Community Manager was introduced literally yesterday (in the literal sense of literally).
I am happy to give them some slack.
ESL, also. Pre-orders should always temper expectations.
I hope that it arrives before my vacation in the third week of July. Not that I will bring it with me*, but that is better then when it will be deliverd during my vacation.
- It is because of the type of vacation where you do not want to bring an laptop. Not even een Framework.
Yes, they tweeted that on Saturday.
Indeed. Can’t wait for the reviews to start rolling out as well.
Batch 1 crowd be like
