Are you well in the COVID-19 situation?
Everyone, take care of your health.
First, share the overall progress.
- Outside / Case & Package
The silicon case assembly test was carried out up to 5th and finished the assembly test well.
The 5th assembly test has completed all verification of all case manufacturing.
Once the silicon mold is confirmed, it can proceed.

Final exterior inspection and wearability test.
We conducted the final case test and actual wearing test before mass production.
However, there was an opinion that it hurts when wearing it for a long time on the elastic side.
According to the cause analysis, we have confirmed that due to the increased structure of the elastomeric part.

So we decided to revise this part after much consideration.
We’re going to need a lot of effort and money to fix it, and you’re going to need more time, but please wait a little bit more for a better fit.
Design partners are already making changes. We think that design is important to you, so we’ll update it as soon as the draft comes out.
- Inside / Logic board & battery
Logic board has begun production.
So we have completed the design change of the new circuit board, and we have found a suitable USB C new connector part and are currently building it. It was not easy because the size of Micro USB and USB C were somewhat different, and it was difficult to find the right product because of the difference in height. It’s too early to say for sure, but we think it’ll be possible to change it, and we’ll build a board and conduct various tests and give you a definite answer by November.

Logic board has begun production.
In the last update, some people misunderstood because of this word. Our meaning is to purchase parts for board production, manufacture PCB, and contract with SMT companies. Some parts took more than four weeks to prepare, so we purchased and contracted first.
Battery Receiving and Certification Completed
The new batteries were manufactured and stocked in the warehouse of 10,000 units.

- Software
PalmCat’s Big Project ! Gesture Usage Pattern Investigation has completed its first round of research in Windows.
Finished investigating the main usage commands for 25 Windows applications. MacOS was also carried out. macOS did not collect enough data to analyze, so we decided to collect more.

Start SW development for macOS.
SW for Windows is almost finished, and we are going to start developing SW for macOS.
In the fourth week of November, you will be able to see the first version.

ETC
International certification has been temporarily suspended.
Because authentication is required when changing to USB C type, we decided to proceed after changing to USB C type.
