@ jasuk70 - if you want to get one for GHI, let me know and I will bump you up to superhuman! ; )
Sadly, I don’t have a spare $1500 lying around otherwise I might 
lol, I have been trying to figure out how to explain to my wife where the $1100 went if she noticed it went missing.

There’s still outstanding questions on how well the conductive inks will work. That, plus the fact that you can’t (yet) reflow a board that’s been printed, is an inconvenience.
Has potential, especially if the product can address the outstanding short comings.
The killer for me was there was no info about consumables replacement costs. I didn’t make the “early bird” $300 discount so given there was no info on costs of replacements I couldn’t see the point jumping in. I look at this as a great mid-way between prototype board services and CNCed boards. Quicker iteration than you’d otherwise get to do but still not a final QA on a real PCB.
It’s overpriced but I like it.
