The campaign started on Jul 22, we're on Aug 8 and they have until now 8.5 million raised funds.
That's pretty impressive in my opinion and meeting the deadline is hard, but it can still happen.

- rorrr2 13y agoNo, it can't. Most of that money was raised in the first five days when the hype stared. The contribution rate actually slowed down and nothing short of a miracle will change that. http://s.4pda.to/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/ubuntu-edge.png http://s.4pda.to/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/ubuntu-edge.png
- Osiris 13y agoIt looks like that miracle they are expecting is for more corporate sponsors to come in and snatch up large batches. But I agree, it's looking highly unlikely that they'll meet the goal unless the timeframe is extended.
- Brakenshire 13y agoThat's very misleading, the contribution rate was always dependent on price, not on early hype. Look how quickly the increase fell off when the price went up, and then took off again when the price was dropped, in the first couple of days: http://ubuntu-edge.info/#total http://ubuntu-edge.info/#total
- rorrr2 13y agoHey, I would love to be proven wrong on this. I love the concept. I just don't see it happening. They won't even hit the half.
