Black Friday / Cyber Monday sale

Hey Everyone, we have a big sale planned for this Friday, Black Friday, through Cyber Monday, next Monday (11/27 - 11/30). This will be the best sale for the rest of the year on Falcons, so if you have been eyeing getting a Falcon in general, or getting one for the holidays, now is the time to do it!

The Falcon bundle (including the Falcon, pistol grip, Penumbra Overture, and the Orange Box) will retail for...

wait for it...

$99

yes, you heard me right ;) It's our biggest sale ever (while supplies last!) - we're finding that every Falcon that ends up in someone's hands leads to more Falcons being bought by their friends and family from the great word of mouth we get after people try the Falcon, so we're really pushing the envelope for this sale, to get a bunch of Falcons out over the holidays, leading into 2010, and really spur the great word of mouth we're finding we get. Please take advantage of the concept, and give the Falcon a spin.

View the details for the deal here (note that the $99 sale pricing won't be reflected until this Friday, so wait until then to get the deal)

It's likely going to be a very long time before you see the Falcon at that price again.




There's more good news for Black Friday...
we're doing one of our biggest software releases as well, with a good holiday discount too. Check out the link above on Black Friday to see what the deal is ;)

Novint has a 30 day money back guarantee, for those of you not familiar with the Falcon and want to try it out

We also have a great referral program. When people get a Falcon they love it. Then they tell their friends. Why not get some extra $$$ for your referrals, to pay off those holiday credit card bills, when your friends pick up a Falcon after playing with yours ;)

We just held a contest pitting the Falcon against the mouse in Team Fortress 2, a very popular online First Person Shooter. Few people doubt that the Falcon dramatically improves the experience and immersion of gaming, especially when reading reviews and customer feedback. In the recent contest, however, the Falcon team went 6 and 2 against mouse based teams, which proves that the Falcon can be used very effectively in online multiplayer gaming as well. Way to go Falconers!!!

There are many other genres supported as well.

Finally, one of the most exciting things happening at Novint is our upcoming release of our F-Gen drivers. The F-Gen drivers will allow the Falcon to be used to play any PC game! This is huge for us. We'll still have more of our FalconHD (i.e. hi-def) titles, but F-Gen will allow you to play any of your favorite games with the Falcon. The F-Gen beta version of the drivers will be out before the end of the year.

as always, I answer any questions people have on our message boards, so feel free to post there, or in the comments here on our blog. Perhaps the best way to evaluate the Falcon, is to search the web, and see what actual Falcon users are saying. People that have one almost universally love it and find that it fundamentally changes how they play games. We also have one of the best communities you'll find - a great group of people to interact with, and we want to continue to see it grow :)

thx all,
