yes, already planning to work with them, expecting testpiece this week.

love the idea of making it entirely out of wood, but this is unrealistic. too expensive, not the same quality, not enough capacity.

I understand your conserns but perhaps it's worth while asking about cost and quality to be sure this is out of bounds.

Don't get me wrong. I also like idea about wooden skinning that you're working with Lastu.

BTW, have you ever considered wooden kb buttons to go with wooden skinning (if the skinning idea will prevail)?

Not my call or anything, but I disagree slightly with this.

Having the phone-side part of this available before the keybaord part makes sense for developers. I wouldn't mind having any and all other halves connect to the magnetic back panel, even if it makes the phone thicker. Talking to people about this I'm not the only one

I'm not sure I'd be willing to purchase the whole package and get the two parts separately, but I understand your reasons. Hopefully this project will be succesful!

A wooden TOH?

Could this idea get any better?

What's the story with ordering?

there will be some wood however, but not entire parts.

also mentioned lots of time, not yet. too many uncertainties. when (pre-)ordering opens, you will know.

Mockup of Andrews keypad, to test shape, size and outline. Will not be printed like this later.

First impression: we are heading the right way

Well, speaking of that... Don't forget to warn your "usual" customers (tobkbd1, diptoh, solartoh, and so on) when you start taking orders, and before all pieces are sold. :]

Please. :>

Maybe the split delivery package could gather more consensus if you could include in the base part any extra (funky?) functionality, so that by itself it's not totally useless.
Something that wouldn't require to completely re-engineer the base board, so prob. not much more than some blinkenlights?
