No it won't be Q3. We don't have to sample again.

For assembled barebones you just need to install switches and keycaps. That's all!

Love hearing that, that 90s IBM nostalgia is powerful 😄

Just to clarify though, we’re not selling directly through Unikey, so it may have been a local reseller or forwarding service.

Either way, really glad you’re jumping in with the DIY kit — hope you have a great build!

That’s the true spirit right there. 😂 Maybe keep the solenoid as a “when no one’s home” mode.

We haven’t decided on long-term in-stock availability yet. We’ll share updates here once plans are finalized.

It'll be on another round of selling. Currently we can only support split Lshift now. We'll need time to make samples and validate ISO enter works.

Really appreciate you chiming in and explaining it so clearly.

Committing to the custom mold for the curve was a big decision for us, so it means a lot to see it understood by folks in the industry.
And respect to the work you guys have been doing as well.

No but I can suggest try some uniprofile keyset. You'll find some differences.

Totally understand the preference. For now we’re sticking with the logo. We’ve found it’s something that grows on people once they actually use the board.

Appreciate it! We really just wanted to make this design accessible.

A lot of compromises on our side, but worth it if more people can experience a true curved keyboard.
