Did they go completely out of business? I was an early kickstart backer and was a bit pissed they took new orders after years of delays then filled those and very few of the kickstart backers.

It is/was a great idea and project but their unethical business practices (IMO) make me want to avoid the project.

From memory, they got sued for patent infringement from a patent troll, and had to end the project(at least as far as the hardware goes). No idea how much or if any of it is true. The project is still available as open source. Runs reasonably well on a raspberry pi. Setup can be a little finicky for the microphone.

Sounds about right
