Donations for Rev1 was a lot of administration in the end. Currently ordering from FunkyOH is the way to both sponsor my development and get some nice stuff yourself!

Bit of a quite period due to my holiday, but I am back!

In other news, Andrew has joined the team and will do the keypad design. He already has some nice designs, but be sure to inspire him by posting your ideas in this thread.

I am very enthusiastic to see what comes out of this, should be good!

Looks like in this post, you may want to reference this post in the 1st sentence.
Not this thread... <--Perhaps time to lock it? If so, just report the last post to mods.

Cheers.

some more nightly work on the keyboard, ordered some test parts from shapeways, should be able to get a working rev2 proto in 2-3 weeks

With my current design -which is very very straightforward- it would be possible to make the keyboard in a kit form, with all parts separately available. Think lots of different colours, surface roughness, keypad layout, upgrade ability, etc

Pricing about 150, realistically. For a keyboard of around 100, there would be no options.

If you intend to buy one later or at least considering, please give your well funded opinion about this! Some suggestions to start your reply with:

- I am very much in favor of full custom keyboard and 150 sounds good
- I am in favor, but 150 is way too much
- I'll buy anything that is shiny and has a Jolla logo
- I am very much in favor of having it in kit form

- I want the ultimate compromise, please give me limited customization for a very in-between price

- I am not in favor, I only care about functionality
- I am not in favor, I only care about pricing
- I am not in favor, this is a terrible idea
- I am not in favor, I already have a hard time putting TOH on phone, let alone build a kit

Will maybe throw some other ideas out there if I get some useful replies. Like to do it demand-based, but that means I need to know what you want!
