The Geeksphone devices are the first in our developer preview program. In partnership with Telefonica, we have ordered two types of devices: Peak (early name Twist) and Keon (early name Zero).  
 
The hardware and software for the devices is in the process of being finalized and they will go into mass production right after Chinese New Year. We expect to receive them at the beginning of March. A few hundred pre-release devices were made for Campus Party in Brazil and are being made for MWC.
