Looks like the Vega+ will be with us soon

It's been a very rocky road for RCL's Vega+ campaign so far. A
change in company directors was soon followed by a few folks in
the community spreading rumors, in an attempt to worry backers.
Mixed in with legal issues with new and old directors, and
quality control troubles with the buttons causing production
delays. It can't have been easy for folks at RCL.
More recently the Idiegogo comments section has been full of
worried and irate backers, many requesting refunds, asking for
updates, or seeking to take further avenues of action. RCL seem
to stop responding to these concerns of the backers then, which
only fueled backers concerns and worries even more, and when the
Indiegogo campaign was closed unexpectedly without any updates,
it was thought the campaign was over leaving many backers
fearing the worst. I was certainly feeling quite sad with the
way things were looking at this point.
However today RCL have started posting updates again, explaining
the reason for closing the campaign, which was to stop any
further pledges for the Roll of Honor perk. They also have a new
website:-

I think with these updates it's really looking promising for the
RCL team to have the Vega+ in production now, if not soon. I'm
certainly feeling better about it all. Yes I'm sure theres still
some mystery around this project, such as photo's or a video of
the final product in action, and packaging etc. And yes theres
been the setbacks and lack of commucation in the past, but
overall with the rough ride it's been, it has really shown how
such a passionate community we are even in troubled times, and
really just want to get our hands on the new Vega+. Hang in
there, I think we're on the final straight. ;D
