is the project dead or something? its been a while since the last update on gh

I'm not sure. Did ask @Seoulcialite on 5. May if we'll see the new Proto on stream, but didn't get an answer. I also asked Jae in PM twice if he could give an ETA for Argyle Stream, but didn't get an answer  :blank:

There's plenty of valid reasons these days why a keyboard can't be produced at the current time.

Still, it would be nice to know what the story is. This is definitely a cool concept that I would really like to see make it to production.

I'd love to see this board happen. I'd go so far as to figuring out how to design/source the case and windows for myself if I just had the PCB available.

Holy $#*t... I need one of these in my life! Only way it could be better is if it was using germanium diodes and a turretboard!

Just a small update. We're in the process of getting quotes for production. Hopefully next update or two should have details about the GB!

Love seeing this active again, and I especially love seeing the alps compatibility with the PCB, will the plate file be released afterwards so I can modify it for alps?

Been hoping for this to come through, especially when seeing renders and photos of keysets on this board (or something similar) as of late.

This board is so pretty but there is no way that I can focus enough to solder this board. Hopefully someone in the midwest can do a bang up job for me. Really this might be the most fun looking board to me this year. Kudos!

Not really indicative of anything other than that it looks nice so people still pick it for renders to show off proposed caps. Once the model is out there they aren't going to stop using it just because the project died.

Yeah I’m pretty sad about it. Thankfully there are a few more through hole projects around now, though none as nice as Argyle.

Wow! Great work! Do you know when I could buy it(Im sorry for being impatient). I doesn't have to be accurate. Also do you have a price range for this keyboard (I was looking for around $150-ish max).
Keep up the good work.

Er... well we've all felt this way for about a year and a half now, so I wouldn't expect the keyboard to materialize any time soon.  As far as price, I can't imagine it being under $200, so it's probably more than you're wanting to spend.  My bet is somewhere around $280-$350, depending on the number of boards made.

Well, in September, Jae mentioned a few upcoming GBs they have yet to start preparing for. Argyle was one of them. See this https://discord.com/channels/556953560835686431/559678236481814548/882665268919283752
