You Weigh In: Heliocity.net Store
Posted by Greg Kumparak on March 27th, 2008 at 06:15 PMAs we’ve mentioned previously, we have a whole lot of stuff in the works. Some of it’s obviously taking longer than we’d planned, but we’re hoping to announce some awesome enhancements as soon as possible. A few things were gettin’ set to roll out the week following the redesign, only to get set back by a drive failure followed by a few weeks of pure craziness. With some of these rad new things coming closer to fruition, we’ve begun looking forward at what we should work on next.
One thing that we’ve been considering is a store. If we took that road, what type of stuff would you be interested in? Device accessories? Vegan Meatloaf? Helio swag? Heliocity wear? We’re not too interested in selling devices or contracts - we’re mainly looking into stuff those already within the community would want.
One thing we’re really interested in knowing about is that last item - Would you rock a Heliocity shirt? If we’re gonna do that, we’d do it right - no CafePress crap. American Apparel for the win.
Let us know what you think, and what you’d want.

Id def rock a Heliocity t-shirt if it was done right. i.e. professionally designed. and id hope theyd come in sizes up to 3x.(im tall, not fat. lol) and swag and accessories would be cool. i hope you guys really make a store. id love to spend money on this site….:)

I would love to see some Helio swag. I love that white Helio shirt you gave away and would buy that in a minute. Cool and slytish like the company. Add ons for the phones would also be great.

I bought my phone about a week ago. Before I bought it I told the store owner I *had* to get a helio keychain. So he gave me 2. They are shiny metal things. Today when I went back to the store, the owner was wearing a helio t-shirt. I suppose helio stickers would be nice. The ocean is loaded, I can’t think of anything it’s missing other than an RSS reader. The helio robot from the commercial would be cool.

A store is truly an amazing idea. With any money that’s made I can see it going back into the community only making Heliocity.net even better or to fund Greg K. cake and costume parties haha. Anyways, I think it’s a great idea. Right on!

If you guys could ATLEAST bring together a solid section of links to get to the stores who sell the accessories that’d be ok. A direct heliocity store, that would be even better though. Holler. lol

I would prolly buy everything that has helio on it,,,shirts, dog tags…whatever,,,ive been searching forever for them!!

I think it would be a waste of time and money. Helio is going down hill fast. Customer service is horrible and you better pray your device works because it takes an act of God to get a new one. I owned a Helio store and that cost me everything. I have lost my home, cars, and almost my family. It has left me with nothing! Helio will be like Ampd and crash and burn, just hope you are not in the path when it happens!

If you could find a way to stock extra USB cables for the Ocean, I’d be your first customer.

I think a charging phone stand that looks like the helio robot would be frikin awesome. or at least a stand for the phone that you could “implement” as a phone charger with the cable already provided. GO HELIO!

firmware updates @ the stores would be good.

American Apparel really isn’t all that great; at least CafePress carries larger sizes - esp in women’s shirts! Also, AA tees are pretty thin and don’t last all that long. I’d rather you objectively look into both sources (and others).

i’d practically dump my cash into to yall if you came to macon georgia and im big so t-shirts and polos up to 6xl and it’ll be a cool hangoutspot if you had stuff to do in the store

Store sounds great, I can help design the t-shirts too
March 31st, 2008 at 10:20 pm
I’d say anything and everything.
it sounds like a pretty freaking rad =D
and AA is great! =D
their shirts are comfy ^.^
March 31st, 2008 at 10:20 pm
Yes, I just made rad a noun.
That’s how cool it would be.

all i REALLY want is a helio dogtag

Swag and T-shirts seems to be the crowd favorite. T’s are fun and easy to wear, and I could do a lot more of what my friend calls “helio whoring” (shamelessly trying to get her to ditch Verizon in favor of the home team) in a stylin’ T-shirt.

Um…basically anything with helio or related to helio….maybe some faceplates with designs other than the boring clear, smoke, pink and blue we have to choose from….yeah so….
