Honestly, hardware on Kickstarter has a bad track record. Manufacturing is hard, people always run into unexpected setbacks, every time. And you really can't blame people for this, they always have the best of intentions, but it turns out they didn't know the right people, or the factory they contracted with put them on the back burner, or a crucial material is suddenly unavailable, etc...

But it also means you didn't get your hardware when you expected it.
