"The not so good news is, after getting a bunch of nice samples of the Gorilla Glass which said DM42P, I wanted them to change it to DM42 only. So they started production of the first 1000 pieces.
I'm not quite sure what happened, one character of the model name got cut off but somehow on the wrong end, see http://www.swissmicros.com/tmp/mp42.jpg.
Now they need to make them over again. And all of you and me, we have to wait. How long? I hope not too long, best case two weeks.
The good news is, all the rest looks and feels really good: the housing, the buttons, the electronics with it's super low-power consumption, and last but not least, the software is getting better and better every day."

You know, in the long term maybe this could add more value to these first units, like those old stamps with a king/queen with just one eye ;O)
This very first batch has been expected for so long, that it deserves its own special name:
MP... multi-purpose
MP... mega-processor
MP... mega-pimped >D
