I sniffed out that Fusion Garage were more talk than substance when I went to Singapore to see them the first time. I wrote an email, which is now part of the legal case, warning about it. The entire story is interesting and funny, I will write it up at some point (not soon).

It takes a long time to polish a hardware product to the point that it is ready for mass market. FG rushed the product out, so it didn't surprise me that it wasn't well received. But apparently there are a loyal group of hobbyists who like the JooJoo
If the partnership persisted, we would have likely switched to an ARM based board and chipset after the first batch of orders. The Intel Atom stuff didn't live up to expectations. I think we could have built something really nice and useful.
