Considering the developers will have their friends and family use these machines, I believe the incentive is there to get it right. Also, isn't self-driving vehicles a more difficult software challenge than guiding a rocket?

2 days battery is disappointing. Making it slightly thicker and getting more days would have been fantastic. With 2 days you may as well charge it every night so you don't forget. Still, this has a wow factor to me due to its slimness.
