New round of investment closed at Notion Ink

That's what the latest post mentioned today, and then went on to describe more mumbo-jumbo. There are some real nuggets in the newest post, and I'll get to it in a new post tomorrow - there's so much to write!

The phrase "a fool and his money are soon parted" comes to mind when I think of investors putting money into Notion Ink.

All I can tell you is that after reading the full post I threw up violently on the side and then laughed uncontrollably at some of the hopeful clowns in the blog comments.

Keep tuned for tomorrow.

    I am the only one who din't understand what he wrote or there are few other illiterates like me?!!! I thought it was boring and too long....but just stating that Mr.CEO is alive and hasn't changed (since whatever he has written is pretty much whats not required and the usual font size, pixel size stuff!!!)...

    Apologies if I sound inhuman...but why does he say "i had food-poisoning".."Severe bad health" or "Spondylolysis"....Granted he wasn't/isn't/won't be well....But is he the only one working at NI? No one else? No other person who can tell the world that the Company is alive, that they are working towards a better product creation! One man army??

    "Another Service Center in Germany and Netherlands by December"....Another world tour--In his dream!.....Why should you make things public before you deliver?!! We have seen many places on the Map-China, Taiwan, Germany, USA, now Netherlands....Give something concrete!

    And Ofcourse..,,,
    Warm Regards

    Just read a comment made on Addicts (April 2011)...

    "After reading through NIblog's newest post I decided I'd make an abridged version here so that others wouldn't have to try to make heads or tails of what Rohan just posted. Without further ado:

    Hello All,

    We've been working. Here's some pictures of some UI changes that may eventually come in future updates.

    We may add a ToDo list application and a digital book as "promised." Flash and the book client still haven't come through so just side load something else like you've been doing.

    You should be able to use MasterCard in the next preorders.

    3 paragraphs of unrelated "content" that convey little information about Notion Ink or the Adam.

    This summer NI is working on a secret project we can't tell you about in case it completely bombs or we just don't follow up on it. It's basically a Wikipedia site but we're calling it the BLISS system b/c that sounds cooler.

    With Warm Regards
    That guy that posts once in a while"

    Hahahahahahahah....what has changed??!!

    Well, your comment deserves a post by itself and that's what I'll do. You hurt my feelings by calling me an a--hole ;)

    Hi, since you seem to be someone who's been watching NI quite closely, I thought I'd ask you something. Have you come across any information in the public domain about (a) who NI's investors are, (b) what the shareholding pattern of the company looks like now, (c) or what their financials look like? I'm rather curious about this.

    Moist cake, no - I have no insider info. I base my posts on what I find in public and you'll often see my posts referencing the source.

    Hmmm... thanks. A basic search didn't yield anything useful, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something that was already out there. Will dig around a bit then.

    If you find something in the public domain please share! I haven't found much either.
