I think you guys need to rethink your strategy and go the Android App route.
Your phone compared to the shiny iPhone the techies go for does not stand a chance.
Best bet go for the Android user with a launcher app replacement.
Case in point, crickets on product hunt, Apple colored glasses.

I have to agree with Carlos. Shipping hardware is super hard. by the time you ship the specs will probably be out of date. see high profile crashes for hardware companies recently like fitbit, gopro, coin, pebble etc. i'd suggest not building a hardware phone
