@hackaday on @hxLexie built GamePhone! https://t.co/c683ZHKgNk

This awesome custom gaming system is based on Kite, a DIY Android smartphone kit. https://t.co/mYW2ZoE0Q7

@D_3R_FIND_US @shreekumar3d Which models did you download ? Some of the models are broken. They just about work with Slic3r. I'll see what I can do for now. This is a TODO for v2, btw...

[Lexie Dostal @hxLexie]

I designed and printed a custom @Android phone with 3DS buttons using a @KitePhone

@D_3R_FIND_US @shapeways @GrabCAD @thingiverse @kickstarter @EFestsASME @CoderDojo @hackaday Am on the lookout for sponsors. Backers are already making great stuff with our kits, btw! Checkout the fabulous GamePhone made by @hxLexie ; he is planning to put up his build log soon.

Kite is very close to the PC analogy. Without a market, it is hard to make modules. That's why are creating one standard config in the beginning and keeping things open. We are currently sitting at 91 kit backers - a far cry from the 3000 we need. Any ideas why ? https://t.co/lBXBxrDXui

@simonbugler You could do that too. Can use the KiteBoard without display when you need.

Backers we Love! Backer @hxLexie converted his KitePhone into this fab GamePhone ! https://t.co/wfjc7AOXXM

[Lexie Dostal @hxLexie]

I can play breath of fire IV on my custom @KitePhone . Might actually finish this game for once.

@simonbugler Made a note. Basically, you are saying provide a low spec phone at $99 or less. That's going to be a tough ask, but let's see.

@D_3R_FIND_US You can use the 40 GPIOs like a Raspberry Pi. We support UART, I2C, SPI and GPIOs, even I2S for audio (as shown in the piano)

@D_3R_FIND_US Done!

@D_3R_FIND_US @panos_panay @joebelfiore @MSFTGarage @Stratum0 @Raspberry_Pi @adafruit @arduino @Fairphone @davehakkens @getphonebloks @Fairphone possibly reserves their LCDs for customers & spares. Without the hardware, the integration can't happen, unfortunately. note that the mobile world is not "plug & play". Kite's display interface is open, but it needs work to interface hardware like display & camera.

@D_3R_FIND_US @panos_panay @joebelfiore @MSFTGarage @Stratum0 @Raspberry_Pi @adafruit @arduino @Fairphone @davehakkens @getphonebloks Kite v2 will have a 12 MP camera. Do have a look at our KS campaign page, and pledge there if you can.

@D_3R_FIND_US @panos_panay @joebelfiore @MSFTGarage @Stratum0 @Raspberry_Pi @adafruit @arduino @Fairphone @davehakkens @getphonebloks 12 MP camera won't be worth the effort. 1080p display is possible (it's in my wishlist). Can you get me any technical information about the same ?

@D_3R_FIND_US @panos_panay @joebelfiore @MSFTGarage @Stratum0 @Raspberry_Pi @adafruit @arduino @Fairphone @davehakkens @getphonebloks @davehakkens has one with him right now.
