Graham, thank you very much for your detailed explanations. Then let's hope, Chessnut really integrated BLE like they told you.

Yes, I would hope so too. I suspect being a tablet of some form and manufacturer that it's very likely to have Blu-tooth because what tablets don't these days. But we will have to wait and hope.

Also von den technischen Möglichkeiten ist das schon ein tolles Gerät !
Was ich spannend finde ist, dass man anhand ausgewählter gespielter Partien ob nun eigene oder von bestimmten Spielern einen personalisierten Bot erstellen kann !
Auch die Möglichkeiten das noch viele andere Engines irgendwann Einzug erhalten können..
Ich bin zwar eher ein Fan von Turnierbrettern aus Holz und auch gerne so wie das in Holz gehaltene Phönix Brett, aber dieser Evo fasziniert mich schon irgendwie ...ich denke ich werde mir einen bestellen wenn er offiziell in den Handel kommt
Finde den Preis noch ganz ok für all die Möglichkeiten die man mit dem Gerät geboten bekommt.

It's my understanding that the current price with 43% discount is only available during the kickstarter campaign and limited to number. So if you're intrigued by the device as I am, you may want to consider being an early backer to get the discount.

Ray

No, I assumed the regular price.
Unfortunately, you can only get the early discount with a credit card and I'm not a fan of credit cards, so I don't have any.
At Chessnut you can also pay with paypal, but then probably only when the Evo goes on sale regularly. Until then I can also watch the tests and then decide.

I understand your reasoning and there is wisdom in waiting for the final product. I do think it will turn out to be a very good machine judging by the numerous YouTube videos of people reviewing the pre-release model, and Chessnut seem to be improving and adding features. I also like the fact that they respond to customer feedback. However, we will only know how good the machine is once it's released.
