Those OBD II connectors in cars can be kind of a pain to plug and unplug, so it does need to fit the hand well, but your point about the bright colors is very good. I hope they consider something more discrete.
We are indeed. We intend to offer multiple colors and will allow users to choose a color if we exceed 5000 units.

> we aren't certain yet if we can make the firmware of the mojio open source Please do let me know when you find out. This is a very important factor for me and many others. > You can totally write your own apps against our cloud api. I think you might have overlooked the primary point of the post. Many folks don't want and don't trust the cloud. My coordinates, travel history, and vehicle information are my business…
I agree with zx2c4 whole-heartedly! The main issue you are going to have is security. I can't see any evidence on your website or video that you have thought about this aspect. The combination of a closed-source solution, cloud-connectivity and connecting to the car through OBD-II seems the wrong approach to me. Closed-source has been the pitfall of many companies in the past because fewer people get to examine the p…
The OBD protocols do not address security and have been hacked but the moj.io does not expose the OBD protocols to the Internet. moj.io communicates to the moj.io cloud over an encrypted VPN.
When you receive a moj.io, you have to pair it to your moj.io account. To do this, you require the serial number of the device and a secret PIN (which you can change and never share). No one has access to your data unless you explicitly grant access (e.g. service garage, insurance company, family member etc.). You also see who is checking you out (once you grant them access)

Ooh, I think I might have had a conversation with Narayan! I was showcasing Routific at that conference when he came to our booth and we talked for a bit. Now I realize that he was showing me a prototype of the Mojio! :)
