looks awesome! of course, I have a zillion questions from cost to replacement paper to security and permissions for access - any idea when the site will be updated? my nephew would flip over this! oddly, I think it would be hysterical to get one for my college son too - just because.

@passingnotes It uses thermal paper, you can buy it off Amazon for pretty cheap.

I love this idea! Do you have images of what the mail printouts look like? Or the UI for sending messages from the application? I'm curious to what extent the messages can be personalized. It would be great if you could send a doodle, maps, choose different fonts, and add 'signatures' (eg. from Santa) etc.

@juliagrandfield you will be able to use different fonts and even purchase a kit to create your own custom font! We will also have special art to make messages from Santa, tooth fairy, etc. We will try to write a blog soon with pics of print outs and UI. :)

This seems similar to the Toymail Mailman (http://www.toymail.co/) instead it uses voice compared to printing

@askdaylen They have two separate, distinctive functions so I disagree with you on the "very similar" part - though I do see where you're coming from.

Seems cute. I can picture my kids sitting in front of a box like this for hours just hoping something comes through :)

Lol something I definitely wouldn't want my mom to know about. I'll probably be getting a message every 5 minutes

I've watched this company closely since I saw its Kickstarter. They're based in Pgh, where im from too. They've had some stops and starts, but im happy to see they're still doing it.
