FE numbers finished

wouldn't be better if it has the same font as the top cover?

is zFrontier properly communicating with you Sylvester? Looks like they're not really active these past few months and I'm worried about the Mars 6.5 group buy

I would personally prefer the font of the FE numbers if there was font matching.

I guess there will be no font matching based on the previous F&T Keyboards

Oh OK, thanks. That's disappointing.

Is it normal for this amount of silence with regards to updates etc?

do you have an ETA of ship dates? It was supposed to be  end of March, then end of April. I assume it will be end of May/June?
