Cherry Switch Shortage

(1/8) > >>

ShakeR:
MX Switches currently available (without any lead time) direct from Cherry Corp: MX Blacks

All others are currently unavailable. (lead times range from 4 - 12 months depending on the switch)

Yes, some producers still have switches from old stock so they can still make keyboards.

This may / will extended release dates of many up-and-coming models.

I won't state too much more on the topic so as not to upset any of our partners, but I did want to give everyone one the heads up in order to cut down on the 'When's XXX coming out?' questions we're getting. Quite frankly, we really don't know.

Roguemaster8:
Is there a direct reason for the shortage?

Geekhack, Deskthority, KBDmania, OTD.kr

Or maybe...

Sixty, Litster, Megnin, me ...

The_Beast:
I hope Costar has some reserves, WASD is putting out a TKL board and I NEED IT

I would primarily chalk it up to Cherry underestimating demand.
