The effect is to produce a photo of a word, time, initials, significant numbers, a lucky lottery ticket etc etc. The Team would have my balls if I gave too much away, as they want to build excitement as we slowly release assets over the next week, but as iPhone devices have already sold out in around 12 hours, I don't think it's too damaging to say what I've said. Many magic companies or artists distort the truth (or lie) and bring up an arbitrary number of years for the development of their trick. eg."We've been working on this for 3 years" We signed the contract with Mark and started work on this two years ago. Jen in our warehouse has shipped each unit back and forth the UK (from our warehouse in Cali) twice to update the firmware as we've been developing this effect. It was at great expense, but it led to a much better product as the months went on. We're all internally proud of how this wasn't rushed to the market and we sacrificed a Xmas release to ensure both the app and the device were as good as they can be when adding new features. Console is the real deal and something we have a full-time app guy on Staff to support. This means constant development and new features as the magic market discovers the possibilities of Console. |

I recently had some bad experience with Ellusionist, package getting lost, unclear communication, months of needing to write to them over and over again asking what is wrong.
Finally I cancelled the order, they payed me back, but of course not shipping costs, etc. Because of that I will not buy from them anymore, at least not anything that has to be shipped to Europe. I like some of their products, so it's a pity, but the trust is gone. Which is pretty important when buying something which is already often partly unclear to begin with. |

My understaffing is the photo appears on your photo roll on your phone or you could use an optional mini printer in ones pocket.

So BT is most certainly not reliable enough for performances IMO. Don't know if this is still true if using the BT 5 standard. I'm not even sure if most magic products using BT even uses the v4 standard. LoL. Even though it's probably reliable 80% or so of the time, that's a very large margin of failure and we know that things tend to fail at the most inopportune times. |

If the printer portion can be streamlined, then I am certainly interested in following their restock. Will there be a price mark up for future releases?

What happens if you don’t get confirmation part way through ? The reason I ask is I have other Bluetooth magic devices that also confirm in stages but unfortunately the effect is in progress at that point and can leave you in a bit of bother if you don’t get a buzz etc at the mid point , Gaz 🙂

As Pegasus states, confirming the input is only half the battle, confirming that the input has been properly received and the action completed is even more important IMO. This is one really great aspect of Joao Miranda's new watch. |

Huh.
Has João ever actually confirmed in writing here at the Café exactly *which* communications system he’s using for the watch? Promystic as one example utilizes a 2 way non Bluetooth for certain products. Round trip communication is a different animal I’m told.

Round trip communication is paramount for the working pro. Ask Oz Pearlman.

One product I own requires Wi-fi for a one time only connection , after this you can be on a desert island with no Wi-fi or 4g but it still connects to your phone without fail .
I have absolutely no idea how it works but it does every time , I admit I haven’t tested the desert island scenario as yet but tried a remote beach in Goa and it worked great lol Gaz 🙂 |

Given they said they've got a full time app developer on it, they won't be sold out for long. The profits from thirty grand worth of sales won't go far, especially if there's hardware to make.

I think it’s the electronic hardware that is sold out for iOS. I don’t think it’s the app. According to description they made 250 pieces of hardware that’s shipping st the end of the month
