Hi,

First, I would like to say a big congrats to Chris and the Secret Labs team for making such headway for their Agent Smart watch campaign - as I'm writing it's over 8x the funding target. This revenue stream is going to help Secret Labs grow as a company, which can only benefit all of us Netduino users.

Please remember, the Netduino product is open source, which in any environment means there's a limited amount of profit it can generate. AND yet they're still throwing support at the product.

Chris has stated many times that the Agent has been in development since late 2011 - And we have had Gen 2 hardware, NETMF 4.2 and 4.3 updates in that time span. Not once has the development or production slowed during this time. 

The only thing that has changed here, is that Chris has had a lot of updates/comments to keep up with on the Kickstarter campaign - but that's the point of the project being Open source, and it being a "community" - that other members can help out where needed.

I personally think he has done a great job seeing the number of responses on the campaign, and on this forum to date - and I dread to think of the number of hours he must spend reviewing them - and for that, I would like to say THANK YOU.
