Dude, i like the idea of a classier product, i think with 13,000 views you have significant interest

the question will be - do you want to sell 8-10,000 at $80
or 3-4,000 at 150$

the more aggressive would probably allow for higher volume after word of mouth kicks in...

how many Corvette C5's are made? there is your wide open market

re the buttons -- can you put some effort into graphically designed icons so they arent lame ones like the GM fob?

 

What happened to the pics you were going to post on the 3rd?

 

One thing that kind of irritates me is people that don't read the whole thread and then ask a question that has been asked half a million times previously. The other thing that gets on my nerves is people that don't think about what their asking. If you look at the physical designe and funtion of this product, you would clearly be able to reason that it is just not possible to turn the blade 90 degrees. Yes we would all like for that to happen but I never asked that question because I knew that because of the way the blade fold into the FOB that it was not possible! And honestly I don't think it't that big of a deal the the new FOB sticks out 1/2" to 3/4" farther then the origional key. Honestly if your knees are that high up on the dash your soo tall that you probably don't fit in the car to begin with. I base this statement on proven fact. I have a friend that is soo tall he doesn't fit in my car even with the seat all the way back and down as far as it will go and even though his knees hit the dash they don't come close to the key. And really if your in an accident where some part of your body is going to be slammed into the key you've got a lot worse things going on then a brused knee. Please,,, Understand I'm not trying to offend anyone here. I personaly sit quite close to the dash and have a signifigant bend in my knee and the closest I've come to the key is the key chain that hangs down below the key and this FOB would eliminate that. So I would actulall have more clearance. Oh BTW where are those pics you were supposed to post on the 3rd? I'm am really anxious to get one or maybe even two of these keys.

 

 

hook me up when ur ready

Thank you ------- -------- I rest my case. (if anyone's read my prior posts)

 

Did you actually follow that link? Is this supposed to be a comparison to the product BlackC5Vette is working on? It doesn't even work!

From the EBay listing: You are bidding on 1 piece (WITH BLANK KEY) of MB S class style remote fob style (reomte sytle button is only for looking, no function) The buttons on the box is no functions. Just for good looking. ALL SALES FINAL , NO REFUND!

Yikes!

The thread is 16 pages dude. How about cutting the guy some slack?

 

This is seriously getting petty. Funny thing about free markets, you don't have to buy the guy's product if you dont like it........

People can rant about the price or the design all they want, just don't buy the thing!

Personally, I look forward to its availability and plan to purchase.

Just my .02

 

Amen.

 

any updates yet

 

Depending on the price...I'm in!

 

can't wait to get my hands on one of these, very cool

let's let this one die.When the originator gets the mods done, then he can start a new thread..
