Hello,

I am a 20/20 testing participant and hasn't not yet received MVP and is wondering if you guys got this device as part of the 20/20 program?

Its a second phase of testing group after BETA group. HOVRS called it 20/20 for obvious reasons! Perhaps someone out there can explain that to us here?

Yes, deafaussie is correct. It's in the second phase of testing group. 20/20 is a program that will be selected by the Purple company that are loyal customers. After the 20/20 program is over, it will finally be official for release. Right now some are invited to the Private Event where that event will takes place of the 20/20 program.

Well, I had been told by Purple company that my name is on the 20/20 list and is wondering I would get the MVP for sure or it just a selection of people from the 20/20 list ?

From what I heard, the 20/20 is when HOVRS chose 20 people to be beta testers, then those 20 people pick 20 of their friends to beta test. Thus, the name 20/20.That means 400 new people will get a MVP for beta testing.

Looking at the invitation, I don't see anything about 20/20 beta testing at all in the invitation. It only said that MVP is ready to be picked up. It mentioned nothing about 20/20 beta testing.

Due to the economy these days, many people can't afford $99. Please understand that not many can afford that price. A lot of people are struggling financially.

ME as the HOVRS Rep of chicagoland. My suggestions to you guys Use the HOVRS.TV on your VP as a relay service often as you can the more faster you can get your MVP! Simple! We're having big event going on this sunday for people who got their RSVP postcard or email to come get their MVP. THey can bring one friend each RSVP card.
