      I've started handing these ones out, MrStein will get a few, Nairod gets one (he's shown me his work in progress and where it's at and will do a full write-up and share shortly), and one of the visual fail + inlay fail rings has winged it's way towards a galaxy S5 for testing.

      If you want one, put your hand up for it, tell me what you'll do and lets make it happen!

          Hi,
          Am I to late for the party?
          I'm currently building an application to authenticate and unlock windows via the nfc ring. Unfortunately I will have to wait till my rings arrive to actually test it.
          If anyone is interested I can share the source (I do it anyways, when it's in a state where it can be tested...).

              I can help you test it, maybe even help you with the application itself. I had started an application of my own, but Real Life happened and it's been put on hold until Real Life goes away.

              PM me your contact details and maybe we can work together on this!

                          Will that help out at all?

                              I had an idea about the carbon fiber rings. Could you place the carbon fiber as it's own stand alone inlay or covering on the sections of the ring outside the chips? It could be a center band or outside edge band. Maybe extend around the chip inlays in the case of the wider alpha rings. I imagine such a ring would go for a premium price on the store site.
