The Freewrite Traveler crowd funding was insanely successful, and I’m hoping that all of the money will be used to improve the battery and software. My first Freewrite died within a day of using it (software problems), so I had to return it for another. Like many Chinese-made products these days, the quality control is lacking. My first choice was a KINGJIM Pomera, which appear to be sold in Japan only. I ordered one from ebay only to be told that the item had already been sold. The fellow in Japan continued to advertise the same machine, accepting orders when he apparently didn’t have any stock. I did get my money back.
