With the group buy being extended to 2000 units (two deployments), what is the likelihood of the second date having the special edition inclusion at this point?Will this still be saved for a potential groupbuy in the future rather than this one?
okay so posting this again Show Image(special edition, not sure it will be made, but the case will be gold anodized)
worry not, if the first group buy is successful we will have a second batch for sure (goooold!)
Just a quick heads-up if you get the barebone kit without keycaps, Signature Plastics is selling the Midnight Set ( http://pimpmykeyboard.com/dcs-midnight-keycap-set-50-off/ ) with a 50% discount! Just remember to grab the additional modifiers to cover the whitefox!(for those who don't know the Midnight set is also designed by me)
have to wait the west coast to wake up
A fox?Show Image

Whitefox uses non-standard modifier key sizes though, so as Matt3o said, you also need the additional mods kit ($25). The keyset would cost you $75 total.

Still a bit expensive with everything though. But I guess it's probably worth it.
If you buy the barebones there is no difference between the layouts am I right?
Quote from: NorrisB on Mon, 14 December 2015, 22:16:11If you buy the barebones there is no difference between the layouts am I right?You should get the plate you need, the plates make the difference between alternative layouts, unless you use PCB mounted switches.

Lots of open space
Question for you. Is there anyway to get one after the mass drop ends in 13 days, other than buying used? Recently laid off, so no spare funds, but I've been wanting a fox now for ages.
Would be awesome if a limited edition version of the board could come with the logo engraved in the back
I'm waiting for some more PCBs to make a full tutorial (and add LEDs)
FIrst batch is actually a "limited edition".
Also Matt3o, do you have any plans on releasing some key sets for other layouts (ISO)? (i love your midnight set, for example).

we'll probably run more granite next year
Quote from: Matt3o on Tue, 15 December 2015, 09:28:52we'll probably run more granite next yearProbably? Is it because SP is backlogged (urban legend lol) or something else? We need an IC started soon here on this one so this stays on point with Whitefox though I can't help but wonder what your thoughts are.

why does my samurai sound like Japanese Batman?
Well I finally ordered. Re: BatchesI ordered after the first 1,000 units sold, but when I was selecting all my options they let me pick the "batch" that my board would ship with. Why would they do that? What's the reasoning? Wouldn't you just ship them as they come in? Why would anyone choose to have theirs shipped at a later date??

They opened a second batch because the first 1000 sold out, but people in that set may be canceling. I re-ordered this morning and scored a kit in the first batch.
What's the secondary IC? Do you use it for LED control?
Matteo anyway you could get massdrop to offer the cable and leds seperately
Quote from: NorrisB on Wed, 16 December 2015, 11:01:23Matteo anyway you could get massdrop to offer the cable and leds seperatelyYou mean on another drop? I don't think that would be possible at this stage.

Sorry if asked already, but does this support off center caps lock?
