Not only will future customers thank you, but your investors, employees, and retailers will also! Add just enough complexion to make your product work, not an ounce more. Look at taking away things that don't enhance your core advantage. IF you have to, add features slowly with future versions. But get something out there selling ASAP. Money coming in from a version 1.0 is an awesome experience for founders and investors. It makes it much easier to get to ver 2.0! And - from a retail packaging point of view - continue with the KISS concept and be even more ruthless removing words, pictures, etc. Make it just complex enough, not one layer more!
