Looks like sonicrevolution has been busy with the qwerkywriter
you may remember it from
here or the pictures of
keycon 2014 So the last update we had was back in May
(I think this was also the prototype shown off at keycon)
Check it out now!
This was posted earlier today on the
qwerkywriter blog. It's looking awesome so far, and I can't wait for those renderings to become real photographs. I really like the metal and the screws. Gorgeous.
Anyway, post here about the design aesthetic, discuss the pre-order price, etc.
Personally, I want it to be wireless (IR and bluetooth), be a 60% with a detachable 75% and 110% sections, have backlight LEDs, Diamond-like-carbon keycaps, come with a real typewriter for backup, make toast, and cost under $100 (shipped).
But, failing all that, this is the next best thing.
