If it makes it to market, I'm interested. But I've seen too many kickstarters that turned into vaporware.

So did the EARL ruggedized tablet. They never made a viable prototype and there has been no activity on that project's website other than people trying to get their money back.

When the Talon is on the market, I'll buy one. :) Until then.... I"ll wait. This one looks like a project that actually can be finished.

From the updates I have recieved on the Talon so far, it seems to be on track.
I have recieved several updates on the projects status, the most recent yesterday. They are currently tweaking the production process, and the pic we got shows that it is progressing nicely.
Im not worried.
