I think this has been a rough road for JJP. Jack's goals and intentions are very admirable......he wants pinball to move forward like the rest of the world. His stated and very reasonable goal has been to build a technologically advanced and superior product in contrast to the more proven, but legacy-based products of Stern. Unfortunately, Jack has encountered many challenges along the way including the constant financal concerns of a cash-hungry start up company as well as the recurrent practical issues of design and development of these very finicky animals called pinball machines. Ultimately, his largest challenge and possibly ( but hopefully not) greatest short-coming has been his inability to get product out in a timely manner. The problem with his recurrent delay in production is that it burns cash at a dangerous rate and threatens the financial stabilty and longevity of the company. Going forward, I ONLY WISH THE BEST FOR JJP, and any other companies willing to face the vissisitudes and challenges of producing these wonderful, quirky, high maintenance toys.

Sorry. Vicissitudes.
