as a side note. Consider how many positions you can put your fingers into. Now both hands?

Now imagine if each position was mapped to a different shortcut...

How many unique positions could you map? (compare to keyboard).

Dev kits go to anyone internationally. Pre-orders are domestic only (for the moment).

And we've got nothing against our northern neighbors, nor is it some grand favoritism conspiracy. Pure rollout logistics. Lots of people are getting confused on this point, we'll announce more shortly.

Website is a little wonky at the moment. Bear with us guys. We'll get you your kits soon enough.

Chime, email us (community (at) leapmotion (dot) com) . We'd love to do what we can to encourage your research.

Close enough.

Writing in air is flashier for press videos, but we understand this bit well. We can track your pen as you write on normal paper too. We'll post a video of this sometime shortly.

Dev Kits ship for free to 20,000 developers in 1-3 months.

Pre-orders are for consumers at $70 and ship this winter.

The idea is to give all the hackers maximum access to create awesome apps and then deliver a healthy shiny ecosystem to the consumer. Also, we'd like to see a larger shift towards people creating things, so encouraging early adopters to get aboard the coding train is a positive trend.

It's a huge new interaction space, and we're looking for innovators to explore it!

Dev Kits (free) Ship international within 1-3 months.

Pre-orders ($70) only ship domestic (for now) around winter.

20,000 dev kits are being made. We want to ensure this tech becomes ubiquitous.

We're getting slammed with launch response. But if you guys have questions, we'll try to answer them here shortly.
