The Rabbit r1 pocket companion made a splash when it was announced in January, with the first 10,000 pre-orders of the $199 selling out quickly after. Now it’s time for those pre-orders to start shipping.Rabbit announced that its first batch of pre-orders will start shipping on March 31; however, it expects that it might take as long as three weeks for the devices to start arriving in buyer’s hands due to their journey through both international and U.S., customs. That means that the first Rabbit devices likely won’t land in buyers’ hands until around April 24th.
