Alberto, you are really not helping yourself here.

You've had ample opportunity to correct any misconceptions, but with every bit you write you dig the hole a little deeper.

The first thing you need to do before you ask people for their $ is to get a pallet full of those thingies in to your warehouse, or alternatively as much of them as you can afford, send off a couple to hardware review sites (yes, that costs you some money), and then you can start shipping based on how much stock you've got.

> I really don't know how to react to this comment. It is in normal in China to suffer delays when you order something from a factory. It is normal when doing business in China.

That may be. But it is NOT normal to tell people that you can ship product and you ask them for their money when you've only received your first sample yesterday.

If delays in the delivery are normal then don't tell people you can deliver door-to-door in under 10 days.

Or are you now going to tell me that you have a few hundred of these babies in stock ?

> The unit does have phone functionality through the dongle, and a custom application.

So, my netbook has the combined functionality of everything that I could stick in to the USB port ? No, it does NOT have phone functionality, it is a media player with wifi, that you can graft phone functionality on to, but you'll be left with a dongle sticking out of your device, which is not the same as having that functionality built in.

> Scrape together all the money ? you must be joking. Do you have access to my financial informations, or do you know me personally ?

No, but I've done a bit of research by now and I know that you are not currently in the posession of 500 shippable units or their financial equivalent. Not that long ago you were trying to raise a little bit of money for a startup that failed (how is wozad.com these days?), less than three weeks ago you were planning to earn $ by $ for reviewing items to be sold on ebay for their authenticity.

> Regarding "how to spot fake watches", that's a sick business idea that came out after dealing with watch copies here in China, i thought i could make up a service and help people on eBay.

Right. Because selling fake watches is legal in China. But it isn't elsewhere in the world, and that's where you're selling them in to. That's a shady business, one that can land you in plenty of hot water in the US and in Europe.

Basically your business model was on how to detect people that sell the stuff that you sold. Takes one to know one I guess.

> You have been smart to find http://watch-replicas.net/, but not smart to post it.

Why ? Is it a secret ? Would you rather that you had not soiled your reputation by selling counterfeit stuff ?

> I am waiting for your real name and address on my email alberto.armandi@gmail.com

If you haven't figured out who I am by now you are really not very clever.

> I am taking your action against me personally, because you clearly have the intent to make me look like a scammer.

You make you look like a scammer.

The product has not been reviewed by any third party, you took deliver of ONE sample yesterday and yet you claim that you can ship, and are willing to take peoples money today.

The only thing I've done is document that.

> I will wait one week before contacting directly a lawyer to obtain your real name by legal means.

Why wait ? Do it today!

Don't bite of more than you can chew though.

And you'd be better of spending that money on getting some of 'your' product so that you can take peoples $ in the confidence that you can actually meet your self imposed shipping deadline.

FYI, your introduction to this post reads: "We realized that it was something needed to get credibility,", instead you've done just about everything that you could to blow your credibility to smithereens.

'borrowed' logos, website content 'inspired' (what a word) by the Apple.com ipad pages, a reseller / white label deal that you present as product development (prototype ??), and a history of selling fake brand name stuff on ebay.

Well done, really.
