Good find torresrl!

That Aptera mouse worth considering. I am hoping for a small scale model for my desk.

By the way Aptera is on MSNBC news again today.

I wonder if they have a license to sell those items. It looks like they just took stock photos from the Aptera website and applied them to some items. I would like to have some items if I knew they were not infringing on Aptera's business.

Looks like someone just trying to sell stuff using Apteras pics to make a buck.

Unless they donate the profits to Aptera or do it as a nonprofit operation, I think that's pretty scummy.

Hey, that's weird -- I also put in a deposit on 2/22/08 for a Typ1-e, but my number was #1294. How's this possible?

Because the guy is probably a spammer. One post, and the guy defending him is one post. What a coincidence.

It had to start some time.

So which fake account is going to start posting the porn links claiming its new Aptera info....

butter,
You are correct I went back and check my confirmation e-mail and found that I actually reserved on 01-22-08,
that explains the difference...sorry my mistake...

The Aptera tees need to be ORGANIC cotton --regular cotton is one of the most polluting crops. Doesn't match up!! Hope when there are official Aptera items for sale someday, that they will be organic or hemp or a combo thereof.

My friend started an organic environmentally friendly clothing brand... they have clothing made from bamboo and hemp, both are naturally antibacterial. They also offer organic cotton.
