Whatever happened with the competition that cannot be named. Launched yet? Any further forward?

I'm not even sure what we're discussing. From looking a random website, it looks like it's still being designed. Any of you guys that are obsessive update us with progress of whatever you've found?

The irony is they say all publicity is good publicity but since the BCF ban nobody is talking about visor wipers except in the context of new Wipey. When its competitor "product" has no substance all you have is speculative chat. Now that's all gone and Wipey looks likely to briefly rule the roost. Its few backers will soon conclude that an electronic visor wiper is a cute but expensive solution to a problem no one really has. Wipey will kill the genre at birth.

Feedback on Facebook all says it was too pricey even at the earlybird 50% reduction. Time for a rethink.

Without knowing the exact components but making an educated guess, that should be possible to produce for under 10. (Mass produced of course)

Thanks for the £15K suckers. You can donate more if you like on Wipey Mk2.

Not quite, in fact they don't get a penny.

Someone is bitching about their posts being deleted from the WiPEY page.

Apparently, deleting posts and blocking people is a "juvenile response".

It's reassuring to know "Rudiger" is, in his own inimitable style, still promoting goodwill in the target market.
