Any Word on When the MMU 2 Ships?
The product page says it ships in August 2018.
Well... it's Aug 20. Am I unreasonably impatient? I know Prusa seems to have a rep for pushing back dates (like THAT'S never happened before in the tech industry... 🙄 ) And that's ok, if/when it's to get the product right--better than shipping prematurely.
It's the silence that's killing me.... (chirp, chirp) 😛

Josef has announced an update article for "next week" on Twitter (tweet from August 18).
Re: Any Word on When the MMU 2 Ships?
I hope that means the article will be posted here. I don't belong to or visit any social media sites.

Swell. 😆
I guess I won't be taking bets on whether the MMU or my LIGHT grey filament order gets here first...

Re: Any Word on When the MMU 2 Ships?
Filament. It appears they are one to two weeks behind on most deliveries, Do you think this will affect you filament, kit, or both?

Unclear. I got some Pantone #s for some recommended filaments, but those are darker than the pics of the filaments too. Awaiting responses from other sources.

Doubtful that I'm unreasonably impatient? That's good, isn't it? 🙄

Funny. I am impatient also.

I to was impatient ... then I printed a big multicolor print (400 filamanet changes or so.) I can wait now..... no more doing that. the blobs from no purge block just trash the print anyhow.
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.
Re: Any Word on When the MMU 2 Ships?
I work in new product development and we have been as far as 5 years behind schedule to launch and that is after we announced a launch date and taken pre-orders. I have worked for several companies and each one has had the same issue. I don't think we have ever launched on schedule on a new design. Upgraded existing designs usually go smother.

At the risk of proselytizing, I understand how/why tech companies feel they have to do it (however misguided), but personally and professionally, I've always adhered to the tenet, "Don't make promises you can't keep."

I have zero faith i'll receive my MMU in September.
The voucher they offered because of a reduction in price of MMU expires 12/30/18, but they keep pushing ship date farther out.
Prusa should pay me interest, they've held my payment for almost a year no product (how perfect is this product going to be anyway?? They've delayed so long, I bet still issues after release anyway)

A bunch of people in the MMU2 forum have reported receiving shipping notices.
My order (from 11/11/17) has not shipped yet. But soon, I hope.

Thanks for the reminder. I (either) forgot (or didn't see) the MMU 2 has its own forum. 😳
