@stephenmarklevi yes! we do have a working prototype; it's not as pretty as the one in the video but it works! (It's based off of existing android-based e-reader hardware)

I love this. I would personally use this more for home automation than for the "sticky notes". Replacing old ipads/tablets/phone that are currently used as controllers with this small device would be awesome.
I see there's wink and IFTTT integration but any plans to integrate with SmartThings?
@xcast3d Great question! Right now SmartThings integration will be limited to what is possible through IFTTT. If enough interest is expressed we will look into including SmartThings integration on our roadmap.
@lcona@xcast3d Quirky, Wink's parent company, filed for bankruptcy at the end of last year. Samsung's SmartThings may be a better platform to invest time into.

@bleistern I really loved the concept here - is this project still live? I see the main website is no longer resolving?
@guilliatt Hey Dan! Sorry for taking a bit to get back to you here. We unfortunately failed to raise the the money we needed to make SeeNote a reality at scale. We sold a lot of pre-orders, but with no investors, we ultimately ran out of time and resources. We then had to refund the pre-orders. We then pivoted to a product called Hynt, which would have required a far less complicated supply chain. Alas, market demand for Hynt wasn't what it was for SeeNote. We're now back in research mode, and we hope to bring to our next product what we learned from SeeNote. We're one step closer to success. Re-reading all these amazing comments, I know we can get there if we keep learning. Onward!
@stefamini Hey Stefanie!! At first, I wasn't sure if I should shut up, or answer ;) but yes; if you have a temperature sensor in your house that talks to IFTTT, then you certainly could configure SeeNote to display that data.

@bleistern Thats awesome. You guys rock! Good luck and cant wait to have it in my house!

The video to me looks like a rendering @bleistern can you confirm that you have a functioning prototype?
@tsheeeep yes! I can confirm that we have a working prototype which is based off of existing Android ereader hardware, with totally custom software.We will be posting some interesting things on social in the next few days, showing the development process 😄
Hey Everyone! The team and I have been looking forward to this day for some time now. There are a lot of things being connected to the internet, some more useful than others. Tweeting toasters, fridges that take pictures of your food. With SeeNote, we wanted to make something that was truly helpful, day in and day out.
Something to solve daily problems:
~ Leaving home without an umbrella
~ Forgetting lunch in the fridge
~ Darting out the door only to sit in delays at the platform or in the car
~ Missing an important note because it’s buried in notifications
~ Fumbling with a smartphone for access to smart home controls
We found ourselves already using traditional sticky notes to solve some of these problems. Invented nearly 40 years ago, the sticky note is a proven tool. With SeeNote, we feel we've taken the utility of that tool a step further, by making it digital and dynamic. We hope you love it as much as we do!
