The replay is up VP-Live | VapersPlace I want to thank Imeo for doing the show. He did a fantastic job and handled all of the questions like a pro. It was a pleasure to interview him. Thanks for listening everyone.
It was very hard for me to speak english for one hour and having answering those questions. Most of them where questions to make me feel bad but thats ok, I dont complain. I was almost sure about what would happened but I still didnt get prepared because I wanted to be totally real and to deal with anyone in a simple way. I also want to thank all my friends for their pms, ripple for his e-mail to the station and his nice questions and all the others that didnt asked me anything but they where sitting on their homes listening me and vaping their GGs with pleassure. 
Kevin, you did an exellent job, I have to thank you one more time for your patience with me!

well done, imeo! i found the interview to be very informative, i only wish it was longer!
all motives aside, i thought there were many useful questions and discussion points in there too. one of them regarding the "pitting" of the avs/ afs tanks and the safety and usefulness of aluminum versus other metals/ materials; another dealing with the constant updates to existing models; and also the sneak peek you gave us all regarding your own upcoming ceramic atomizer.
i think the stainless connector parts and transparent tanks will put all the safety, durability, cleaning, and corrosion concerns to bed. and i wonder with regard to the updates, if users could chime in here, maybe with a new poll (?), to see if they would rather wait for a transparent tank for AVS and AFS models, to really push that to the front, or whether they would be just as happy to get the nickel versions and then maybe the stainless and acrylic/polycarbonate, etc. versions later? same with adapters for the GGTB and AFS V3, all-in-one, universal fit or 901s then 510s, etc. this would only apply to certain updates that we know are coming, not those that genuinely come unexpected and necessitate a new approach, a new item, etc. that way if there was a consensus on the transparent tanks, or the use of nickel plating vs. other materials, then it could be full speed ahead on those. these may cut down on some of the updates and let customers give you an idea of customer concerns are when updates or new approaches come to mind. i really appreciate your willingness to take customer feedback and suggestions and incorporate them into your thinking and plans for the future.
and lastly, the new atomizer, is it built around an existing atomizer style such as a 510 or 901 and will it take those connections, or will it be completely new? i hope it will be based upon an existing connection so that it will go on the existing GG adapters, but i am very excited to know more about this atomizer's form and function. i think this will be the clean atty that i've been waiting for, one well suited for vaping and a perfect companion to a transparent and stainless steel tank design. any ideas on what resistances these will be available in, will they also be transparent tubing, does it take longer to heat up or cool down compared to the nichrome attys we currently use, and what type of lifespan can we expect from these?
thanks again for the interview, imeo. i thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to the best from GG in 2011!

thanks BuGG, I really apreciate your post buddy.
About the atomizer, it will have existing threads so it will fit anywhere. You know how much I like compatibility. The only it will have inside would be the ceramic, nothing else. No wool, no ropes, nothing. Its life time will depend only on the wire. It also will not have soldered connections to worry about. I really hope that I will be able to find this small ceramic that I want. I am searching 3 months now but the money that factories ask are too much for a sample. They want me to put a big order at once. But I cant do that, I have to test it before!

I think we may have to find a slot for a full video interview at vapourtrails.tv | ...... putting u back into vapor ...... Imeo...
I for one am very happy with the move to nickel-plated GGs. I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that nickel-plating is just as safe as Stainless Steel. The only concern with nickel plating would be someone who would be allergic to nickel. I am absolutely in love with my new GGTS and AFSv3...
Why not Hif? Now that I saw people understood what I was trying to say at the previous interview, I will wear my suit, my tie and I will be ready to go
. Thanks for the invitation Hif

Yes Yes !! that,s exactly i did . Do you mind ? i asked my wife . " no no , fine by me . I can understand what people ask from Imeos answers.. " Great interview by the way !!they where sitting on their homes listening me and vaping their GGs with pleassure.
hahaha nice nasso, exellent move.!! Ok, I have a suggestion. Dumwaldo said that GG is not the best mechanical mod. I say that from now on we can rename GGTS to GGTB, witch means GG The Best 
Funny show, first caller was dumb, get a nickel plated AVS if you think aluminum has issues. Never seen pitting so unsure why the rage, possibly a disgruntled X GG user trying to hurt Imeos sales, any guesses as to who?. Dumbwaldos question was pretty immature too.
Kevbow, sorry I've never heard of your show but I bet having Imeo on it spiked interest.

I would have preferred more balance in the questions. It's good to have some challenging questions, but there was hardly any mention of all the innovations that have come from the GG line. Am I right in thinking that the adapters that we all use were first conceived of by Imeo? What about the genius of the AVS and 4 in 1 atomiser connection? Even something as simple as the fuse...so many innovations that didn't get a mention. Not a balanced interview IMO.
Don't shoot me down, but sorry to say that GGTS is not the best. What is best comes down to personal opinion - it's not just about features. What is best for you might not be best for me, right? I like my GGTS-1 the best, even though the GGTS-2 has more features, and there are lots of mods that produce great vapour and flavour, which is what matters to most of us. That said, the GG line continues to be the industry leader in many aspects, and I would challenge anyone to find a better mod even if their preference is not for the GG.
Imeo, FWIW I thought you came across very well.

The question about delaying product until no modifications would exist was hilarious. For example: recording.
First we had magnetic wire, then cylinders, followed by 78/33/45 rpm flat 'records' and eventually magnetic tape. Some time after. recordings became digital on CD's/DVD's and progressed to RAM storage at a level that the entire Beatles collection can be stored on a thumb-nail sized device.
At what point should a product be released? - - Any point the developer wishes !!
Don't own a GG (yet) - but imeo's interview was well conducted and very educational.

Magnetic button,
Telescopic tube,telescopic false battery for different batteries.
AVS tank for all mods.
4in1 end caps,
constant update and upgrades,
a manufacturer who really tries to give it's customers what they ask for,if it's possible imeo delivers.
How can they not see GG is the best,
You've tried the rest now try the the best,the GGSTB GG Simply The Best.

Agree John
No one forces us to buy upgrades, hell half the lucky people with Grants are still using those. Half the upgrades have been user asked for ie when Cappy got the 510 going well people asked for a 510 adapter and got it. Some are because Imeo thinks of a new clever way to do things ie the AVS which also gave us adjustable draw, a thing sadly lacking on other mods.
Bring on the upgrades I say, some I'll buy, others I'll pass on. My choice.
