Wow! Go pick up Wired’s December edition. They just named us their favourite product for 2008!!!
Me and my fellow tech cohorts got a callout “Peek has an army of techies behind the curtains to handle the digital diplomacy that makes their device work flawlessly with every major email purveyor”.
We need to help Wired with the word “army” – we have four people on the software team, three hardware engineers, oh yeah… and two interns.
You have no idea how much this means to us, we have all worked an insane amount over the past year getting everything ready, and to have Wired place us over some of the major tech gadgets that have come out this year (iPhone 3G, Google phone, etc). Thank you to everybody who helped be part of this, especially all of you on this site!!!

Congratulations. I’m not usually an “early adopter” of anything but wanted to give you guys a chance. I really hope you give the phone companies a run for their money someday with all their stupid contracts!

Kudos to you all! I love my Peek! My hubby just commented that he has wasted tons of money on all kinds of devices for me over the last 10 years and finally, I buy my first-ever gadget because it’s the only one that does exactly what I need! Go Peek!

Congratulations. It is well deserved. I can say that Dan, Gabe, Amol and the rest of the Peek crew – including CSR’s that I’ve been in contact with have been expert, attentive and friendly.
Peek fulfills it’s brand promise better than any other product/company I can think of.

Congrats. It really is a neat little device that does everything it promises, and it does it well. I can’t wait to see what you guys do with it next.

Congratulations. I would like to see you give the cell phone market a smack upside the head. It is _way_ overdue.

Hi,
I saw your device on Wired and was very impressed – looks like a really cool device and has appears to have some great hacking potential (seen the thread at hack-a-day).
A couple of quick questions –
* I assume this is a GSM device (as the T-Mobile network is GSM) – is this correct ?
* What bands does the radio support ?
* Is the device SIM locked ?
I am in the UK and would be very interested in buying a couple of devices (I travel to the US fairly frequently) but wonder if I could put a UK SIM inside.

I bought my Peek within hours of reading a review of it in MaximumPC magazine, and despite the middling review (what do THEY know anyway??), I couldn’t wait to get to my computer to order one…
I got it today and love it! You guys are the best – thanks for such a wonderful product!!
