The Change!

Posted in Uncategorized by Rohan Shravan on July 12, 2010

Sorry guys, been one of the worst season change cough, cold, fever and what not! But that’s bound to happen. These 4 cities in India (Bangalore, Hyderabad, Bombay and Delhi) are so intertwined that I have to be in one city one day and in the other the other day.

But the change is not only in the season (monsoons are here though), it’s in lot other things as well.

I think you might have heard about Google Tablet. In time to come we all would know what Notion Ink might have to do with it! The alpha App and Content stores as up and tested for scalability already. Flash is also up without battery issues.

Coming back to that change, Notion Ink is moving to Bangalore. Also, one thing which will change (which is complained by a lot of the blog readers and friends) is the update frequency. You will see a new website, and developer forum is also coming up soon.

I want to share something with you in the coming posts (how we reached this point and what issues came along, few things which must be learned by all the new entrepreneurs).

Warm regards

I have to make this clear: I will buy an Adam as soon as possible.

That’s why I’m checking your updates EVERYDAY, sometimes TWICE a day if there’s any word about launch date (month at least). I think there are more people like me with that impatience. I thing YOU should be impatient too! Then I am kindly asking, to push you a little bit:

When you want Adam to be lauched and my money to come to your accounts?

Hello,

where is the change in the update frequency you promised? 2 weeks have passed since the last update of information. This is hardly acceptable after such a post…

Greetings Alnerion

Hello,
Hope everything is going well for you. I came across the Adam some time ago, and still I have been very eagerly waiting for it to come out. I’m holding off from buying the ipad because I do need a reader very much at this moment. So please do hurry up to release the Adam
Thanks for your brave effort and wish you all the best.

I am hearing the big Indian company Reliance (likely the portion owned by the younger Ambani brother) might be the investor; its probably not a coincidence that this company also announced its entry into broadband space in India. For those who may not know Reliance or its owners the Ambani brothers or how ‘big’ they are… there were rumours not too long ago the elder brother was camping in NYC to buy out…. Walmart!

For all those folks still doubtful about the launch of ADAM, believe me, Reliance can give any western biggie a run for its money on all counts… so if anything they will try to release it sooner than later.

Go ADAM! Go India! Go Android! Go Google! Go Rohan!

cheers!
ADAM

Plz – i have been a fan of Adam throughout its gestation period, and i dont want you to prolong the wait to hold the baby after its birth. Do make it quick!!

Interesting, that would be pure AWESOMENESS if the Adam took the eyes of Google and was your big investor. This would also explain your quietness. Google would want to keep it under complete wraps. I doubt this is true, but it’s a nice dream for us for you. I haven’t seen one bad comment about the Adam, it would make sense to me that Google would go there.

However, this would almost certainly be a sign we won’t see the Adam until just before Christmas, probably a pre-order hype. I was a huge pusher to get it out now, but I’ve already purchased the Viliv S10 Blade now (I have a 10 hour battery too, oh yeah, and Dynamism gave me a second one for free). Maybe I’ll splurge on an Adam for myself at Christmas, but you lost this sale for now. I mean smaller companies like Neofonie and Hanvon have been giving release dates already, and neither is in the US market yet. You won’t be in the market before September for sure. It looks like come September, there is going to be a flood of tablets, but I predict November for Adam. Notion Ink Adam with Google pushing it, WOW. Could be the Chirstmas big item.

And boy oh boy would I be so happy to see Apple take a much needed punch in the iPad. iPhone 4 psh! What could be more important to a cell phone as reception? Oh yeah, “The software”. Should we recall? “Lets just give everyone a case and call it even, we are Apple, that’s all that matters”. (Glad I have the HTC Incredible) Get that iPad tablet outta here.

And a final shout out to Dynamism.com, couldn’t be happier with that company. They will serve you like a seller should it’s customers. So refreshing to see the quality in their business practices. If possible, bring the Adam to their site. I wouldn’t buy anywhere else given the choice.

So is Notion Ink Adam becoming the Google tablet? Will it have the Android Market?

I should state here that without the Market access and as such, without a Kindle App, I will absolutely not buy.

You could launch with the promise of the Market and Kindle app “coming soon” and I’ll still not buy.

Either do this tablet right or don’t bother.

But please – blog with something concrete. All of the blog entries here are full of suggestion and teases without giving anything real.
