This is kind of a longer-term bit of parenting advice, from someone whose kids are 8, 10 and 12 right now. Understand that your child is…

When I look at Kickstarter today the cheapest you can get the Lofree Flow for is $221 AUD (Super Early Bird price plus shipping). I paid…

Thanks OP, I have been eying off the Air75 for over a year, and now that it has the 2.0 switches and 20% off I've finally pulled the…
