NoteSlate - This Year?

NoteSlate is making bold statements again via Twitter. The link takes you to the noteslate.jp site. I'm sure not what "Shiro" is.

Noteslate #SHIRO will come this year. The first one of them. Thank you for your support http://t.co/Pejs22Z6UR pic.twitter.com/zy1GahaRPl

I signed up for the notification. I assume "this year" means 2015. Otherwise, we would see something very soon. Also, the e-mail sign-up gives an address in the Czech Republic. Not that it matters - I just had no idea where they were.
