Wow has it ever. I had a hard time finding where the things I normally go right to were located. I'm sure once I get used to it I will like it, but in the mean time - oy vey, why do they always have to change things. LOL :) Z

agree .... it took me a while to find the "Events Schedule" .... I haven't seen much in the way of new news but there are plenty of updates .... the new site is nice and I'm sure will work well for EM

Ok new question - They apparently have really worked over the Elio Website. It appears to be much more PAD friendly style site.
With respect to reservations - I am #6931 all in $1000 I made my reservation in August.

When I looked at the "Reserve Your Elio Now" they have sort of a temperature bar setup. You can hover over the various amounts and it even will give you an estimate on the "Reserve# " you will be out. Ok so how can someone putting $1000 reservation , an all in $1000 reservation be at #1209? I have a
screenshot here :

Im just curious how does this work? If I was all at #6931 this is suggesting - at least at 1st glance that someone reserving now would be ahead of me? Did they retire say the 1st 10k numbers or something. Can anyone explain this? Thank you!

My guess is this is a mistake. But that is just a guess. Until we learn to read this new site, there are going to be many questions. BTW, what does PAD friendly style site mean? :-) Z

Yeah I am wondering if they are missing a zero? Maybe its like 12009 for an all in $1000 reserve? Could be website coding problem. But hey hover over the 500 all in.. Seriously it seems there is an issue here yes?

Well - its like bar links which are larger and more finger to touch pad friendly. I noticed it and its sorta like what CBSSportsline did with their fantasy football site as well. Making it easier for users with IPADs and Droidpads to navigate the site because these days a much larger portion of the population is using pads vs laptops and PCs vs say 5 yrs ago. Its sort of a design architecture I suppose.

My bet is they are missing a decimal place. 12,090 makes MUCH more sense.

That is my guess as well. But its something that is going to make a lot of people angry if they do not correct it expeditiously. How would you like to think you have a sub 1200 something reservation then learn some weeks later - OH! Our website had a serious flaw in its code and your really #12,900 or whatever. That might = to 5 or 6 months more wait in early production numbers.. Yeah this could be a big boo boo if they dont fix it quick!
