I just got the info in email last night from Cherry itself, so I can only assume it's good. I have contact to GMK for more information about what is possible, costs, moq etc. I will keep posted.

So assuming GMK comes back and says, "Yeah, sure buddy.  We can do this," I'd like to just vote for RGB (1.5x of course) and Red Esc.  Pretty sure that will generate the highest MOQ right off bat!

I hope these come to fruition. Maybe also an orange dolch or even a regular dolch set should easily reach MOQ if they're looking for full sets

We could probably reach higher MOQ's with GMK too, since it's probably of interest both here and at DT and all the Korean forums, and on top of that probably a few other European forums (I think a lot of Europeans hesitate to participate in group buys because of the lack of or high price of ISO sets). :)

And yeah, all the possibilities... Oh my. I've never been this close to being religious.  :))

Swatch made watch. They had some scheme that used the watch as a skipass apparently sometime in the 90's with skidata systems. Then you didn't have a ticket to loose theoretically. I read some about Skidata when I saw and bought the keyboard because I was curious about what it was.
