I am planning to write another article after the campaign is over with more data. Maybe we would have raised more money on KS and spend less on advertising but there is no way to prove that at this point regardless of what data I share.

Agreed, at 5% plus cc fees, both IGG and KS are well worth the costs. I actually think they are very under priced considering that just about every other marketplace takes 15% or more. (I hope KS and IGG aren't reading this!)

From a backers perspective, I agree. They need to do a lot of work to repair some of the damage done from letting just about any campaign go on there site. It was a shortsighted move that was probably done out of desperation.

It's definitely not the spiritual successor since the Freewrite is built differently and for a different market. Even so, the Alphasmart was about $250ish when new.

Hey Ketan! I am one of the creators of Freewrite which many consider to be a modern incarnation of the venerable AlphaSmart. We took a different approach but my cofounder and I have all the respect in the world for what you all did with the AlphaSmart. Many people in the writing community still covet their AlphaSmart which is no small feat for an electronic decades old! All the best to you and if you ever want to try out a Freewrite, let me know.
