| Dear SoulPhone family,
|
Thanks very much for your patience and understanding during the last several months without a newsletter. I hope to resume monthly updates from here on. This month, I will answer four of the most common questions I’ve received since the last update.
You can be assured that everything continues to progress on the SoulPhone Project. We are still working toward a practical SoulSwitch — a device that provides a 99.9% accurate Yes / No reponse from a postmaterial person in near-real time.
Q: Hello, I’m inquiring about the SoulPhone. Is there an estimated date of completion? Where will the first device be sold?
A: Thank you for your interest in the SoulPhone Project. We are still working to achieve a breakthrough SoulSwitch that provides a 99.9% accurate Yes / No response in near real-time from postmaterial persons. (‘Postmaterial person’ or PMP is our preferred term for people whose earthly bodies have died and are living in another time-space slice of life. To learn more about PMPs, see article #31 What Is a Postmaterial Person at SoulProof.com)
There is no guarantee that this device will be perfected; however, based on progress in the last year, successful completion is quite likely.
The SoulSwitch is needed to develop the SoulKeyboard — a series of 40 or so switches / keys to allow texting and typing with PMPs. That greatly enhanced quality of communication with postmaterial scientists will hopefully expedite development of the SoulAudio and SoulVideo devices. (Please see SoulPhone Device Overview for more information about these anticipated technologies.)
Initial SoulKeyboard sessions for the public will be a service, not a take-home product. This is to ensure product development, safety, and security of the technology. Eventually, apps or actual devices should be available as with current SmartPhone communication devices.
We don’t know how quickly all this will occur because of the unprecedented nature of this project. Stay tuned with the newsletters via the SoulPhone website.
Q: It may be a premature question, but what will be the approximate cost of the SoulKeyboard?
A: Unfortunately, your question is premature since we don’t know the time and cost required for developing that device. Our eventual goal is to make the SoulKeyboard sessions as affordable as an evidential medium reading. However, the cost may be higher in the beginning just as with other electronic devices such as VHS and DVD players. We also will do everything possible so that SoulVoice and SoulVideo devices become as affordable as cell phones and laptop devices. But we have a long way to go before then.
Q: I’ve been closely following this project. Thanks for all the information you provide. What is the status of multi-center studies? When will they be concluded and published?
A: Thanks for your question and interest. We were ready to start multi-center studies in 2021 using the Plasma Globe System (PGS) for the SoulSwitch. That technology required 8 hours per day for 24 days of data collection for a clear Yes / No. Why so long? Many trials were required for data averaging to demonstrate a clear signal amidst all the surrounding electromagnetic noise. Dr. Schwartz said it was like trying to see a one-inch tall person in the water who was surrounded by 12 foot waves.
However, the Electronic SoulSwitch begain reaching impressive levels of development. As such, we could no longer justify asking A-Team members to perform mind-numbing repetitions with the old PGS system. (A-Team test pilots are exemplary PMPs who have worked with the project for many years and have demonstrated excellent dependability and performance.) We also couldn’t justify requiring so much time university professors and post-grad assistants who would handle the multi-center studies at their respective universities.
The time required for an accurate Yes / No with the Electronic SoulSwitch continues to decrease but hasn’t reached the breakthrough level of 10 seconds or less. Doing the multi-center studies with a lesser device would detract from achieving the breakthrough. As such, we are waiting to do multicenter studies with the very best detection system.
Q: ‘Will the SoulPhone ever be ready?!’
A: A number of you have understandably asked this question. The answers to it are a bit complex so please see article #85 Will the SoulPhone EVER Be Ready? at SoulProof.com.
You can be sure that the SoulPhone Project team is proceeding as rapidly and diligently as possible. We know that many people are suffering over the apparent loss of a loved one. This sense of loss can be especially difficult during the holidays. (Please remember that your dear ones aren’t really dead, just their bodies are. A wealth of scientific, clinical, and firsthand experience evidence now clearly demonstrates that. To review that data, see the following articles:
#1 Scientific Evidence That Bodily Death Is NOT the End of Life
#60 Clinical Evidence That Life Continues After Physical Death
#115 Firsthand Experience Evidence for Life After Death
We also know that we are living in challenging times and some people feel hopeless and disempowered. So it’s tough to be patient about the SoulPhone Project when considering the potential benefits of input from postmaterial luminaries: inventors, educators, leaders, and others who want to help us improve life on earth.
Again, thank you for your continued donations both small and large. I share your notes to the project team. They are touched and inspired to create this technology that has the potential to help all people — both on earth and beyond — and our planet.
Hugs, love, blessings, and postmaterial communication,
Mark
