Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

I was think that I am funny when I wrote it on FB Jolla Page :D :D

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

You said once that you would contact people that had first shown their interest here or bought the first prototype. Now it's just a matter of who will be available and checking TMO when the Kickstarter campaign is opened. :<

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Count me in, with Scandic.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Of course I'm in! :D

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Smart move, now I'll be refreshing Kickstarter instead :)
I'm definitely in!

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Me too. I'm in and with Scandic.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Count me in for a scandic one.

Re: TOHKBD rev2

Re: TOHKBD rev2

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

slight hick-up due to unplanned manual review by kickstarter...

exqueeze me for the anti-climax, but at least this i can tell you: the project is a GO

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

how many early birds can pledge the TOHKBD for 100€? :D

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Man I know that even 130€ is perfectly fine - though as a student with limited financial possibilities, I'll definitely try to get one for 100€.

Your project is awesome!

Keep up the spirit :-)

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Me. I'd even pay more if there's an option for more. But I'm definetly gonna be an early bird.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

You can count me in with scandic!

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Being a kickstarter project there are many advantages, like more visibility so there will be more money for the project, larger production batches, etc.

I'm in, waiting to have again a hw-kbd since Nokia N900.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

I'm a four year user of the N900 and the N900 keyboard has been the single most important factor for me not to upgrade to another phone. I've tried a lot of other phones, but no other phone has been able to provide me with an equally good feel and responsiveness and usability than the N900 has. I love the N900 exclusively because of the keyboard.

Now, I've followed Jolla for a long time. About a year before it became available. The other half always intrigued me, and as it came available I wondered why there was no official keyboard TOH available? Surely it's not that hard to design for a group of 60 ppl.

Well, apparently it was, I had heard that someone was developing a slideout keyboard for Jolla but didn't give it much attention because my attention was elsewhere.

Now, a year later we have this. Dirk, our messiah. My ****ing god, Dirk. My saviour.

A few days ago a friend of mine gave me a 100€ discount code for Jolla (codes that have circulated these forum, but this one unused), and I started looking again at Jolla. Now 250€ for a new phone, not to mention Jolla was exactly what I needed.

250€ for a Jolla, Not bad. I had been looking for a new phone for a while, but nothing could beat the greatness of the N900. I still knew everything that makes the Jolla do good and I've had the pleasure to test my friends Jolla, I knew that especially with something like this, Dirks keyboard coming out, this was the phone for me.

I ordered my Jolla earlier today. and I'm going to support Dirks tohkbd kickstarter immediately when it comes out.

I feel that even without the immediate tohkbd this will be a new love in my life.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Wooow, I do not know what to say, THANKS :)

Also, the page that is awaiting review:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...token=02e2365d

To know what you will be F5ing for ;)

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

What happened? My guess...TOHHKB hit kickstarkickstarter.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

i know exactly how to make you happy dave ;)

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

I think you should add a few higher levels (>200), with some virtual rewards. For people that want to support and have some extra cash on the side, but don't need 5 keyboards. Remember that kickstarter steals quite a lot of money in taxes (40k out of those 55 will probably reach you, if 70 euro out of each 100 is enough then disregard that)
edot: especially when the time will start running out and there will be a bit left missing (typos fixed)

Finally a true answer to a question asked lots and lots of times: ARE THE MAGNETS STRONG ENOUGH

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Kickstarter And Amazon will take approx 10% (5% each or smth) of the collected funds as a fee, by the way, but I'm sure this is the right decision.

I wonder if you got sponsored by Jolla in doing this as this project will earn Jolla some(/much) visibility too ;). And Lastucase too... If not, they should have ;)

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Is there a video / animation on how the user may slide the keyboard to open or close it?

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Edit: reducing the footprint because this post didn't serve a purpose. It was about the unfinished KS pledges, no info.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

and then there are taxes (income?), one of the most repeated comments of successful ks/igg is 'wow was not expecting that so little money ends up in my pocket', i hope just am paranoid (but would rather pay extra 20% than for ks to fail due to accounting problems)

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Heh, I'm clearly too eager go give you all my $...

The KS is not ready yet and just a draft, let me try to calm myself down and behave like a... NO: ME WANT TOHKBD NOW! prkl. :D

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

IMHO it makes perfect sense:

• 130EUR is the regular price for non-custom-colored keyboard (therefore not limited)
• 140EUR is the regular price for custom-colored keyboard (therefore not limited)
• if you're fast enough, you'll get custom-colored keyboard for a limited price of 120EUR (20EUR cheaper)
• if you're not that fast, you can still be fast enough to get a regular keyboard for a limited price of 120EUR (10EUR cheaper)

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Yeah, Where is that special gold edition? :D

dId/do you EVER consider to deliver TOHKBD in IKEA Style With IKEA price?

Edit: I also want to congratule late you to a well performed countdown as well as a very nice move to boost With kick(even if i like indie better). I also hope that jolla consider you as a VIP and send you intel about their coming jPll even before announcment to the world. You def need headstart(if you/jolla consider continuation of TOH concept)

With you I mean the team. Seal team 3

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

And the special-Dave999-discphone-edition? :p

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Question: if I don't go for the color keypad option, I just get the black keypad as seen in the teasers by Andrew?

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Any chance of getting a differently colored border?

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Yes, blank keypad will be an option. Very cool if you make your own layout!

What border? Casing around keypad? Yes. Casing attaching to phone? Yes.

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Yes on both. I'd like my keys to be black, but everything else to be #305998. Can you make that happen?

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 

Just a small heads up, the link to the shake test is broken in the kickstarter! :)

edit: how do i english lol
