Anyone got any idea what is going on with these wide FOV lenses?

I was told last year they would be shipping September 2023. I asked again in November and they said still testing.

Now we are 6 months later, and still no Wide FOV lenses, are we to assume some kind of production difficulties? Perhaps the ones being tested on YouTube are one-off hand crafted versions...

I THINK i read there's some serious distortion with them that maybe they're trying to fix?
