Crowdfunding caveats

In receiving review offers for The Gadgeteer, one type of item that comes up almost every week (or more) are truly wireless stereo earbuds. Everyone’s got their own little spin on the same tune. And sometimes, they’re not even out of prototyping, like these Reecho earbuds that I got to test, and rip into in my review.

You can see from the picture that the initial product image compared to what was actually shipped (after months of delays) is grossly different. It’s something that really makes me thing twice about backing anything on Kickstarter or Indiegogo.
