They are still invite only. fundable.com already does what kickstarter does, same principle, business model, and they use paypal which is a bit more flexible for payment....and completely operational. So is ChipIn. Kickstarter looks nice, all web 2.0, but the developers seem to pay haphazard attention to the project. Looking at their forums, and their uservoice...I do not see a lot of timely and productive user/developer interaction.
