Thanks for doing this. With 98% of my time focused on technical development, it's difficult getting the exposure with potential customers and investors.
For ~$700, I'd like to see a version that is networkable, has 8-12 drive bays and includes the slick software utilities that are coming with Microsoft's Windows Home Server for backing up systems on the home network and remote access. Maybe the guy at Lime Technology can figure out how to add some of Drobo's slick hardware features in their UnRaid product.
