The fact that they are really excited about it is part of why I got excited about it; I trust them a little more than the rest of the industry to say whether there's anything to the hype or not, and they seemed to think it actually did.

The first video they did will tickle your historian bone, because it goes into great detail about the process they went through designing it and both the experiences (fencing experience helped them find the right grip angle) and the prior art (in terms of previous design) they studied in order to make the thing work the way they wanted it to. The second one is all about the design of the final gun, and goes in great detail into both the design and its manufacturability, which you'll dig from an engineering perspective.

I also was kinda charmed the Hudsons themselves - they're a young veteran couple who essentially co-designed the first iteration of the product while snowed into a house in Alaska for three months, and they're obviously total geeks. And fans of Ian and Karl; apparently their videos helped the design process.
