So I talked to Josh today at Vape Royalty. Like many of you I am waiting on my ipv4 to drop any day now. Here is the response I got and I have attached a pic of the ipv4 at the P4Y factory that he sent me as well

"They are hoping to have the silver ones shipped by the end of this week. The reason why P4U is delaying the ship date on the mods is because they want to ensure all features including the temp control works properly before they ship them out. It would be really bad if they rushed just to get the mods shipped out early and then the temp control feature has a bunch of issues"

Still wish they would hurry up already.

i'm on the list at VR, did he say when the blk ones were coming?

Actually he did. Here is his quote from his P4Y rep "P4Y has not finalized the color that the black IPV4 will be so the silver ones are already in production right now and will get shipped out before the black ones!"

just sent him an e-mail asking to switch mine to the silver one instead of the blk, thanks for the info!

I initially wanted the black and thought I ordered it. Turns out I messed up and ordered silver which is okay since the black will take longer. I am sure he would be happy to switch you out.

Sando....You are in Louisville and are a Wildcats fan? How does that happen? I bet you get some Cardinal hecklers I am sure. Then again half the state is UK fans and Kentucky leads the nation in basketball attendance. I am not a Kentucky fan but wanted to see history made this year. I really can't stand Duke or should I say Puke which is what I did when they won the championship.

I would not discount the ability of Pioneer4U to build these rapidly. The Chinese production capability is surprising in many ways. I predict the silver will ship this week and the black next week (my prediction). Both announced models use the same body, the only difference is the color of the battery cover. If this mod is particularly popular I would not be surprised to see additional battery covers in additional colors being available ala-carte.

If you look at the pioneer4u website you will notice that the bottom picture of the IPV4 has been updated and shows the display running in temperature mode, the mod is complete and is in full production right now.

Am I the only one that finds it a bit odd that they have not finalized what color the black will be?

I'm going to take a wild guess here.... BLACK?

There are often translation issues when talking with Chinese manufacturing personnel. Finalizing what color black may actually mean wait on the black covers to arrive from the building next door. Strange how communication is different.

Earlier there were some comments that Pioneer4U was waiting for the boxes to start building them. They were talking about the packaging but lots of people thought they meant the physical box that the electronics are contained in. Strange.

any new rumors ?

folks :)

Apparently it is going to be upgradable to 500 watts, it will be chargeable via your cell phone and they are reducing the form factor by 25%. These new features will add around 2 months to production time.

Just kidding! I check every day for new info and haven't seen anything yet.
