A Decent timeline
The most important number I track is “number of new machines shipped per month”. It's a “cut through the bullshit” kind of number.
Here's several years of that:
I don't want to jinx it, but we seem to be sustaining another doubling of our ability ship machines, and I hope to ship around 200 DE1 this month. That'll be almost twice our previous (one-time) record.
Since we're building 50 machines at once, sometimes we make more of a specific model that we have orders for. That means some models are coming into stock and can “ship immediately”.
The first model of ours to now be back in stock is the DE1XL Black 220V model, and there's a dozen of them ready to ship.
Here's what happening right now at the Decent factory, here in Hong Kong:
Even though our queue is 227 machines deep, the orders are spread across many models, so over the next 2 weeks, there's a good chance a small number of these models will come back into stock as well.
I don't know yet if we'll manage to have a empty queue for Christmas, but it now seems likely we'll have a few different models available before Christmas, for anyone who wants to give a super-nice gift. ð
