Round 1 isn't done..... so what is the point of talking about a round 2.


Sorry for asking again, but I needed to change my shipping address and I figured since final products are being shipped to distributors, I should figure out how to verify where things are really going .

So how do I change my address?

Also need to change shipping address.

In long lasting GB's they ask for shipping addresses before sending because when dealing with a large group over a large amount of time there will always be people moving, Don't worry the shipping will be a-okay

Is there ever going to be a round 2 on this....
There is one similar DIY keyboard coming: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=57948.0
There will be also several GH60's going straight to aftermarket when this GB finishes.

No cancellations are allowed at this point, otherwise the groupbuy would get too complex.

Just wait for people to throw them on the market.

Totally justified, I wish there were other HHKB layout group buys that looked this promising, not looking forward to getting bled dry by the markup prices that will likely get posted.

hi guys, can anyone tell me whether or not the orders can be shipped out by the end of May or early June at the latest?

I am moving again... in the middle of June, so I may need to change my address, this time from Europe to Asia, so quite a big one.

This is going to be a third time I am moving since the start of this GB, lol.

I just noticed that getting ISO key caps is very very hard compared to ANSI key caps
I have assembly for my GH60 with an ISO plate, I was wondering if it was possible to change that to ANSI? I know no changes in orders but since this is isnt related to any physical orders I'd guess it's up to the assembler for Europe?

Btw I took over the order for Numerus, if that helps. (Still isnt changed to my name in the order confirmations)

I don't know about dyesub but so far pretty much all shops and GB's mainly sell ANSI sets and only a small group sell ISO kits, it seems like a wiser investment to get ANSI straight off the bat

It depends a lot on what caps you like, and in which languages... but ISO DE Cherry doubleshots or dyesub from older G80/G81 is not at all hard to find used on ebay for decent price the majority of the time. BE is not easy, but you may find FR, ES, IT sometimes others.

ANSI is the most desireable, and thus there are more ANSI sets produced than ISO. Same reason why ISO is cheaper and easier to get: all the desireable ANSI has already been taken

Most people buy those boards just for the caps and switches.

At this point I think you can only ask them to skip assembly for your board.

Edit: I forgot, I have some lasered white BE caps you can have for the cost of shipping. They are a bit faded but will do the job.

you are asking for a plate change. so that is a order change and order changes are not possible at this point as everything has been made already. you ordered a iso plate and it has already been cut. so you can not make changes at this point to your plate configuration.

you have two options really.
1. if you ordered with pcb mount stabilizers ask the assembler to assemble it without the plate in ansi instead of iso.
2. receive everything unassembled and trade plates via classifieds then arrange someone else to assemble it for you.

do not take this the wrong way,  it is just way to late to make order changes and it has been copy and pasted over and over through out this thread.

No GH60s apart from prototypes have been shipped yet. You can find the status in the first post of this thread although I think plates are done now. We really need a source for stabilizers (that was one of WFDs jobs but he has gone MIA) but apart from that we're looking good.
