Not just yet

Rico says that his IndieGoGo-funded project, the XStylus, hasn't quite happened yet, according to Elton:
Hi Funders,
I hope everyone has a great long weekend. As we are in the last lap towards the “birth” of the XStylus Touch, it has been an eventful weekend for us over here.
We spent the holiday weekend at the three factories that are charged to make the different parts of the XStylus Touch. (One good thing about working with Chinese factories is that they work on Easter weekend!) The iron pen shafts are ready, and they look so beautiful! So, is the conductive plastic pen shaft. I can’t be more happy about them. Really love those babies!
But in the mission to deliver the perfect high performance stylus for your iPad, we are not leaving any rock unturned to make the XStylus Touch into the ultimate pen for the iPad. That’s why we’ve just painfully rejected an entire production batch of two thousand silicone pen tips and screws that the factories delivered. What it means is that it will take us four to five more weeks to have the final production batch out for the packaging. It was a difficult decision to make, as we know you’d like to receive you XStylus soon, but the deviation in the pen tip (see photo) was not acceptable by my standard, so I’m now working with the factory to fine tune their molding. We promise that we really see the light at the end of the production work process.
Please accept our apology for this delay. I’m as anxious in delivering the XStylus Touch to you as you are excited to receive them. But we really want to deliver the highest quality that money can buy, that’s why we’ve need a few more weeks to iron our the kinks.
I’m visiting the factories again end of this week and I hope to bring you more exciting news then— hopefully a shorter delay time.
Best,
Elton
