I'm hoping that the $15 price point gets those people that were on the fence about the project to dive in and the project gets closer to its goal faster. I selected $50 as any good IDE is well worth that price point, and if it never sees th

Some thing that you might want to look at are the number of free cards you are giving away. With many states having mandatory class size reduction class sizes are smaller and 15 would cover a lot of classes. My wife's class this year has b

Having put an email address into your landing page, it doesn't appear you've actually launched so I couldn't evaluate how necessary it is on my own of course and will have to take your word for it. As for the other sites... this process mig

I agree 100% with this sentiment. fab.com, one kings lane, gilt.com etc. I don't know if I want to join your site and/or be a customer until after I've had a chance to see what you have to offer. I did register with one kings lane but haven

I've been waiting almost six months for USCIS to answer a question about regulations they are responsible for. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for anything to actually come of this. While my current example might be extreme, it seems to t

I think that change is a lot clearer and gets what you provide into the viewers mind immediately. Of course you should probably test variations to see what gets the best response.

Looks nice, with a clean/simple layout. The only thing I found to be distracting are the weight and position of the discuss/comments buttons. As they are aligned with the end of the byline for each article they aren't in the same place betw

I'd rather not see the users pictures at all. With most sites it seems you end up with a few bulk submitters in each category. Seeing their faces/avatars over and over again would get really old really fast. I could see it also potentially

I appreciate the flexibility you've used with publishing through leanpub, I'm also not a fan of paypal so an amazon gift card has been sent. I look forward to any future ebooks you publish in this manner as well.

I would agree that there's a huge market for a smaller than 10" tablets and the iPad specifically. I'm not a big fan of the Kindle Fire (I own one) or the Blackberry playbook. The 7" size is great for reading books but the weight is too hea

For those users with grandfathered unlimited accounts there is no need to care about data usage. At the very least it should be optional and removable, which it isn't.

There's a huge untapped market of casual users that are too price sensitive to be buying the iPad. That's very likely the market a $100-250 tablet would be aimed at. This is the same market that the kindle fire is already selling to. In the

Or maybe not. It could be an HD release of the original two games via steam which has long been rumored. Unfortunately that would be just as bad for my productivity as the release of a new game in the series.

I believe it will co-exist with the iPad as well since it targets two different markets. I simply think another vendor with a slightly better device in that price range could beat amazon at their own game. Slightly better speakers and not u

As a kindle fire owner I think Amazon could be beaten in the tablet market quite easily. It's a mediocre device though I don't think Amazon cares that much as it's clearly just designed to consume Amazon sold content.

I agree that in many cases the costs of producing a printed version of a product vs the digital version is being over estimated. In my case at least the pricing of digital goods is losing authors sales any way. I'm not going to pay $9.99 fo
