the geeky stuff should be cheaper.
It's just a dutch dude (and apparently some help from a finnish geek) bleeding his free time to get a 75 units of these done.

the geeky stuff should be cheaper.

That should make you understand that *prototype* manufacturing is neither simple nor necessarily cheap.

Personally I think 100 euros is cheap price. I might pay it from a mass produced qwerty too. It just is such on add on that I haven't had with Jolla and dirkvl work was the final trigger that I even bought Jolla. Otherwise I could have been returned back to Desire Z.

first 16 are on their way!
for these people:
please remember that this is not a polished product and can -and will- have imperfections! also, the software is not yet done and everything will be a bit hackish at first.
if there are any problems with them, please email me, then i can more easily help with fixing the problem then when we fill this whole thread with issues
also, the shipping was a little cheaper than anticipated. if you want the difference back, send me a message. otherwise it is converted to a crazy-otherhalf voucher for future projects!
also, i am exhausted. this whole keyboard making is a bit more work than anticipated. i am learning a lot though, so that is always good!
ow, last thing! a very few people -like 3 or so- have a very limited edition keypad! see if you can spot the difference!
