What type of material is it? Plastic? Or metal?

Brushed steel, brushed black steel and carbon-fiber backplates.

This bumps the total possible tohkbd colour&layout options to 4200.

Not actual carbon or steel by the way, but looks and feels very awesome.

I think I like brushed black steel, thanks for having kept investigating alternatives!

For what it's worth, those "modern" backplates would certainly look very good with visible magnets. :O

it's vinyl! needs some work and extra parts to attach it, but will prove to be worth the extra effort.

Dirk, how will you deal with orders from people outside the countries where Jolla ships phones, and who have no Jolla yet but pledged to get the keyboard + the 100€ coupon? Have you an idea already of how many they are? Will Jolla ensure shipping to their country or will they have to cancel their pledge?

Vinyl? Then maybe they are even thinner...

Thin, thinner, thinnest!

This is clearly stated on the KS page, the coupon is valid with shipping to the EU, Norway and Switzerland. If you are not in one of these places, the coupon does not work for you. You can send it to someone else in the EU that orders the phone for you, like this is done currently for some people.

Don't know how many there are, but most names look pretty Scandic.

did not see it mentioned here, looks like vkb hiding is already done, from KS update3:

Kimmo has been working hard on the keyboard drivers and there is a lot of progress. Auto-hide of the virtual keyboard is working, back-light goes on and off depending on ambient light and lots more is being made as we speak.

Oh man, will you have examples on Slush? I now really think I need to check the feels, if you had some could look if any cheap flights are still available
