This deadline was revealed by Andy Rubin himself, the co-creator of Android and head of the new Essential smartphone venture.
The comments also suggest an global release won't be too far behind the U.S. launch. At the time of the announcement, the company promised that the new Essential Phone PH-1 Android smartphone would ship to the doorsteps of pre-order customers within 30 days of the announcement. You can see Andy Rubin's message below.
As a fledgling start-up, the process of bringing that first product to the masses is rarely "smooth as a baby's bottom" and often 'rough as a badger's a**e'. Rubin adds that the handset is going through the certification process and carrier testing, both in the United States and the global markets.
In an email to potential customers who signed up for information on the device, Rubin says it will start shipping "in a few weeks".

The jobs would pay a minimum of $10.33, $11.88 and $13.34 per hour but workers would be eligible for higher wages with overtime. It's highly unlikely that there are no available servers, cooks or housekeepers in Florida to work at those properties.
The main USP (unique selling point) of the Essential Phone is its two magnetic pins for modular attachments that Essential promises will "keep your phone cord-free, future-proof, and always up-to-date".
The firm is also marketing a 360-degree camera accessory that clips to the top of the phone.
The Essential Phone features a 5.7-inch display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB of RAM, 128GB of built-in storage, with a fingerprint reader on the back and a 3040mAh battery under the hood. Front camera features include an f/2.2 aperture, 16:9 aspect ratio, and 4K video recording support.
