I, like many of you who signed up out of curiosity, got an email today announcing the launch of the new Ploom website. I found this little gem of information on their website regarding their 'pods':

...the device was not designed to handle any raw tobacco or other items.
interesting, i like the look of it but the whole pods thing seems less than desireable. not enough flavors and to me it seems like it would be rather expensive
All of our tobacco blends start with the finest grade of Bright Virginia tobacco leaf, grown and cured here in the U.S. The leaf is combined with other premium ingredients in our own custom blending process. We never use expanded or reconstituted tobacco, or other fillers. The result is the purest, highest quality tobacco experience possible.
I think the price is $6 for 12 pods. I had previously emailed a request to be put on their "list" and I received an email from them today stating that their site was now live, but that I didn't "make the cut" to be eligible to purchase from the limited intro. No info regarding when the Ploom would be available to general public.
Me either...how cool is that look!Did anyone notice that you need a can of butane to make it work?

I must say, the design is absolutely gorgeous and I LOVE how they went with "non-child friendly" names for their "flavors". Pro-activeness at is best. I can't wait to try one and see what it is like!
