Looks really cool with the macro clusters on both sides and the options for led/oled. Will the pcb be offered in a solder version and have any added layout compatibility like: split backspace, stepped caps? A rough pricing estimate would also be nice to include in the IC.

Thanks for the feedback.

Looks great, I think I would be for sure in if a solder PCB Option was available, otherwise looks great!

love the board, love the name

So you got a Turkish named keyboard, with Japanese writing underneath on the PCB and you're in Bangladesh. Damn you Mr. Worldwide or something, my dude.

Please make it available internationally

I love the use of the empty space that is naturally there because of the Alice layout! I'm definitely interested!

Yo great design; will buy if it runs; I am Bangladeshi as well.

nice to see more alice boards coming out!
would definitely like to see this compared to owlrisu/spring!

kustom3 · « **Reply #14 on:** Mon, 28 March 2022, 13:57:30 »

An opaque case and a solder PCB would make this hard to pass on. Good luck!

Looking forward to this, any updates?

Oh dang I'm really interested in this board

NihonCK · « **Reply #18 on:** Thu, 14 April 2022, 21:08:02 »

atl22033 · « **Reply #19 on:** Thu, 14 April 2022, 21:11:12 »

stepped caps support please

jiminojimi · « **Reply #20 on:** Fri, 15 April 2022, 04:14:53 »

hotswap pls

🥟餃子🥟 · « **Reply #21 on:** Sun, 17 April 2022, 04:48:47 »

Interested. I like it, would like to hear a sound test and stuff but i love the implementation of the oled screen etc. Are clip in stabs going to be ok to use?

codecoffeecode · « **Reply #22 on:** Sun, 17 April 2022, 19:47:13 »

This board looks very interesting! I have a few questions:
1. What price did this board run at in the Bangladesh GB?
2. I noticed on the FB page it mentions "hardware to assemble the board". In the images above, I notice the PCB is missing some SMDs: the hotswap sockets, diodes, etc. Does the board come with these preassembled or does the user need to solder these?
3. Is this board QMK/VIA compatible?

Cotton · « **Reply #23 on:** Fri, 22 April 2022, 07:08:04 »

I love the design! Hopefully we get to see it go on International GB.

swingydoo · « **Reply #24 on:** Wed, 04 May 2022, 12:45:22 »

This design is really interesting to me! I appreciate the flex cuts on the PCB and love how you guys used the negative space for the OLED and RGB strip. If this goes into international GB then I am very much inclined to place an order.

Hey there,
1. Currently its running for like $120 here for the GB
2. The hardware mainly means a hex L key for opening up the board for further modding. No worries it will come preassembled and fully working kit. You dont have to do any assembly.
3. It is fully QMK/VIA supported

Any updates on this?

jetjagaa · « **Reply #27 on:** Wed, 06 July 2022, 15:25:12 »

Would also love to know if there are any updates on an in-stock sale or international GB!
