    Oh we know it doesn't exist but you have to have the legend somewhere. You did it right on 2048, just have r4 with a tab. I'm OK with that if we can't finance the mold

    edit:that is row1 (bottom row) or maybe even r3 if they can make it (q row) I'm not sure what profile would fit best but a 40s kit without _any_ 1.25u tab is not going to work

    That'd certainly work but if you're going to offer a 40s kit with accurate legends then just have the right legend available. Also some 40s require use of the 1.25u bottom row keys so it doesn't necessarily work for all cases.

    should have just kept it as ortho kit. epbt doesn't really support 40s and having wrong row keys is pretty lame.

    I really don't mind having legend accurate but row incorrect when the kit is $15. the same kit in GMK would be $40 or more. Its just a trade off one has to accept to have the price point we have. I am curious what the actual cost to fund the mold would be. I do know this is a source of consternation for a lot of would-be 40s buyers.

    Yo any chance the 1.5 tab can be swapped out to a r4 1.25 tab instead for 40s kit? Rather have the proper legend then a weird kinda eh kit. Besides that I see that it's meant to be a much smaller kit so I won't ask for much more. But yeah r4 as tab is not that bad if the rest of the profiling is correct.

    Edit: forget epbt bottom row is r1 so that instead

    I also want a crayon drawing desk mat.  This will look great on a white keyboard and will only make any parent's toddlers want to bang on their keyboard even more.

    Instead of a regular deskpad there should be a large desk jotter pad for this. Ideally with drawings you can colour in.

    GMK uses Abs and ePBT normally uses PBT. 2 different manufacturers.

    GMK is based in Germany and ePBT in China.

    Lol, I thought this was just an elaborate April Fool's joke... I am glad it is not, it's brilliant :D

    With the Smileys and Rubbers kit this gets incredibly versatile - for instance I can use the smileys instead of the ISO keys that are missing...  :p

    Any chance for a 6.5 unit Pencil? I know that's a long shot.

    Cool

    edit: interested in Base + Smileys + Backpack + Rubber ( + Pencil if 6.5 avail)
