We’ve assembled, tested, certified, produced, and started shipping the first batch of Paper Dev Kits! Thank you again for backing the campaign and for all the support that got us here. We can’t wait to see what you build!

Here are a few shots from the assembly and shipping process:

We’re sending batches to Crowd Supply for fulfillment. Once a batch arrives and gets checked in, Crowd Supply ships individual orders out to backers/customers. The first batch (60 units) is currently with our courier and en route to Crowd Supply; subsequent batches will be a similar size.

With Chinese Lunar New Year celebrations approaching, production and shipping will pause briefly. We expect to resume in early to mid-March and continue sending the remaining batches from there.

FOSDEM 2026

Also, we’ll be at FOSDEM 2026, giving a lightning talk:

• From Prototype to Production: Crowdfunding and Shipping the Modos Paper Dev Kit

And there will also be a BOF session:

• E-paper | color – fast – open-source

We’ll be showcasing what’s possible with the Paper Dev Kit and giving a preview of what’s next! Come by and say hello!
