hey there,

one week has passed now, since i recieved my ToHKbd rev2 qwertz (order.no. 721) last monday morning, here in germany with City Post. Great Timing, perhaps, cause it was the only morning i was awake, cause have to work at night this past week.
I aslo didn't get a notification mail for shipment, but imho. it was even better, so the surprise was much bigger, when i finally hold it in my hands.

After one week of usage, i'm still overwhelmed of it's puristic geniality...

Was qiuet glad, in getting mine later, for all the issues the first users reported...but that's totally normal, i think.
Mine got also a few Issues, i.e.
- "A", left "Ctrl" key, and Space Bar, need a lot more force to register.
- qwertz layout get reseted by itself sometimes, so "Z", and "Y" are switched back most of the time. (ß, and äöü still don't work, but thats already known.)
- after last week update, qwertz layout started working better, but the background lights won't work anymore. But problem is gone after one, or more reboots.
- the Lastu backplate seems to be just a bit too short, so on one side i can see a a tiny part of one magnet.

but, hey, for the rest it's working fantastically for me also, and it get's better with every update.
I totally love the background illumination. (3 LEDs between the numerical and the qwerty/z row, right?) They are so smooth, the whole keyboard is so beautiful, you are really awesome. And as i wrote in the kickstarter survey, so much Love & Respect, for you three guys.


ahäh...by the way, can someone tell me, what this status LED on the left upper side of the keyboard, between "Esc" and "Del" keys is for?...i still didn't get it...hehe
