Here you can pre-order your own FzR device to be delivered as soon as it is manufactured once prototyping, development and beta production has completed. All FzR design, function, spec and pricing schemes are subject to change for any number of reasons.
The presale price of £1000 is exclusive to this website at this time, at less than half the target resale price. This generous discount is in return for your commitment to helping us bring this digital device to life.
Our web host's payment rules only allow presale orders that are honoured within twelve months of purchase, so our shopping cart will not allow actual payment from you until we have enough 'in principle' presale orders to ensure that our manufacturing and assembly goals are met within a year of the payment gateway opening - hopefully with a degree of 'flood funding' generated by interest in our presale campaign. Once presale payments are unlocked, the preorder price-tag will rise each month until the beta models are rolled-out, reaching the full retail price of £2500 in time for commercial launch to the public.
All preorder funds for this FzR device will directly finance the research, development, prototyping, testing, pilot build and beta model rollout. These early versions of the FzR device will ensure our early investors become proud owners of a truly collectible piece of art that forms an exclusive range of non-commercial souvenires that were awarded only to those esteemed consumers who will forever be considered as our highly respected founding funders.
Most of the technology to build our FzR devices already exist, so once we've assembled the inner framework, 3D printed the casing and coded the OS to provide functionality, the finer design details and production hurdles can be ironed out as we go.
Presale customers will obviosuly need to be willing to tolerate changes in timescale and pipeline production because everyone knows that not everything always goes to plan. But, that’s not to say progress in areas other than anticipated, may reveal themselves capable of succeeding before we imagined either!
Due to the 'organic' start-up nature of us starting small and paying over-the-counter prices for component parts in smaller quantities (rather than highly discounted wholesale supplies) our presale price for this initial demo-run is based on manufacturing costs alone, so avoids all the additional marketing, promotion and distribution costs and is without any profit margin on our part, until the units become commercially viable for public release.
To help put our presale customers' minds at rest, all beta FzR devices will come with an impressive 10 year manufacturer's 'back-to-base', 'infinite upgrade' or 'new release update' warranty, as a loyalty gesture of good will, in return for your trust, patience and faith in our concept. In other words, if you help to look after us, we'll definitely look after you as much as we can, with pride, for as long as we can afford to.
This means if your FzR breaks or fails in any way, we will replace any and all parts for free* and/or upgrade certain features as the design improves, and/or swap-out your original beta models for newer equivalents (including improvements) for an entire decade after the launch date to the public! The same policy stands for our deep-dive 'NucleOS' operating system which can be UXUI trained, scriptomated and flow-configured like nothing anyone has ever seen before, as well as our legendary 'Vortex' media manager, webscope and commcenter, which will literally blow the minds of software nerds, interface masters, webeaters, power-users and data-divas for decades to come! The prelaunch versions of our bespoke software environment will involve several 'limited edition' sub-functions, artsy features and time sensitive/function triggered easter-eggs that commercial users will never have the privilege of exploiting or enjoying.
