Thalmic Labs finally started shipping pre-orders of the Myo armband this winter. The company showed off its final design for the Myo in June of 2014, having announced delays for pre-order shipments six months previously. Now, almost two years after it first surfaced, the Myo is on its way to consumers.
The Globe and Mail reports that Thalmic has started shipping units and that the company has more than 50,000 orders to fulfil. Thalmicâs Stephen Lake says it has shipped 24 percent so far. Speaking via the companyâs official blog, Phil at Thalmic pointed to the #gotmyo hashtag on Twitter as proof of the thousands of units that have been shipped so far. The Myo website is also now advertising that new orders will ship âin the new year.â
The Thalmic team will be at the Consumer Electronics Show next week. This is second year in a row that the company has made the trip to Vegas. This year, theyâll not only have a finished product for demos, but one that is already shipping to consumers and is supported by the Myo Market. Weâll be meeting Thalmic at the show to talk about the companyâs plans for this upcoming year, so stay tuned!
