First there were the mountains of Pioupious:

Then, then, the mountains of boxes…

And this Friday evening, there were 250 Pioupiou sent out of the 400.

It's very symbolic, because I sent all the Pioupious who were “ready to go”.

If your Pioupiou has not yet been sent, it means that you fit into one of the following boxes (with a few exceptions):

1. You have not confirmed the delivery address
2. You said you were on vacation
3. Your Pioupiou needs a rectification at the level of the GPS
4. The delivery address is outside France

For cases 1 and 2, it does not depend on me…

For boxes 3 and 4, it is in progress.

They are starting to be there

As I write these lines, about 70 Pioupious have been put into service.

Here are a few :

Pioupiou 93, in Garvanie, in the Pyrenees:

Pioupiou 128, in Pourrières, in the Var:

Pioupiou 69, in Salève, in Savoy:

First feedback

So far, it's just bliss.

Les Pioupious pioupioutent.

La Poste only screwed up for one package.

The Sigfox network seems to keep its promise. I only had 2 or 3 Pioupious who have reception problems. Sometimes it does not pick up indoors, but the problem often disappears when the Pioupiou is perched at the top of its mast.

There's still a lot of work to do: send the latest Pioupious, finish the pages to edit the name, description and position of the tags, finish the API, make the mobile apps… But I think it's off to a good start.
