I can confirm it right now. CONFIRMED! 1-MX-Brown and 1-PBT.

If others want confirmation, they can PM me with their PP address (if they paid with PP) and/or their real name.

As mentioned before, I will confirm shipping addresses before sending the 'boards out. I will use your Paypal email address if you send funds that way...otherwise, I will PM you if you sent funds via snail mail (will also drop you an email via your GH registered email address).

iMav · « **Reply #253 on:** Sun, 03 April 2011, 15:31:04 »

I have the following left from the order if you still want to get in on this.

3 - MX-Brown
2 - MX-Blue
2 - MX-Red
4 - PBT key sets

Lpb45 · « **Reply #254 on:** Sun, 03 April 2011, 15:42:18 »

If there is anything left in about 10 days I will be picking one up + a PBT

Good question. I'm not sure if they will include that key or not. But, you'll definitely get the original 7 key regardless.

Pretty sure if Imav is this interested in getting one that it works with macs, pretty sure I read a post saying earlier he loved his noopoo but had to give it up because it did not work on his mac.

i definitely cannot see this coming with a titanium key
if it did i wantz though i do wish it had a number instead

Lpb45 · « **Reply #263 on:** Sun, 03 April 2011, 22:16:12 »

pretty sure if it does not have the titanium key it will definatley have a normal 7 key, they arent going to ship this missing a key.

wondering if there's any update on the aluminium case thing? I'm expecting the case alone to cost the same as a poker keyboard.

They aren't ready to sell them yet. Can't even get a prototype out of them yet.

Well, it's now official, my family has fully moved out of the home I lived in, and consequently the shipping address I put down for my 2 Pokers (1 Brown, 1 Blue).

I'll get you another address soon enough, iMav.

This is so much better than hitting "reload" on a Chiefvalue or Newegg product page. I'm really excited to start enjoying this keyboard.

The official money deadline was March 31st. However, I have ordered extras, so PM me and let me know which switch type you are interested in. If ther are extras, I'll allow you to preorder.

iMav · « **Reply #275 on:** Sat, 09 April 2011, 08:52:37 »

Based on the quantity I ordered (and taking into consideration all the late pre-orders to date), I have the following left available:

3 - MX-Black
2 - MX-Blue
3 - MX-Red
3 - MX-Brown
3 - PBT keycap sets

Please PM me before pre-ordering. First come, first serve (based on when your PM arrives).

PM sent for PBT and you can just ship them together, iMav (KBC Poker browns + PBT keycap set). Thanks! =)

Yes. PM me and let me know details on when you can pay (and, obviously, what you want).

Based on the continued interest, I don't anticipate having any leftovers by the time they arrive. But, just for you, I will extend a limited-time, $1 discount if you pre-order today.

One of the distributors of KBC POKER in China mainland just claimed they received the first batch and will start shipping on April 13th (Beijing time).

Approximately 6-8 weeks for KBC in Taiwan to produce the keyboards (to order)...12-14 weeks for the Cherry MX reds.

Then on April second we heard this.

Well, the Poker HAS been renamed the VorTex.

BTW, I have the following left...

3 - MX-Black
0 - MX-Red
1 - MX-Blue
4 - MX-Brown

First come, first serve. Only an actual payment reserves your 'board(s).

The name Poker is meant to suggest that this little keyboard is like a card up one's sleeve, isn't it? I'm pretty sure that's the intention, yet that isn't what first comes to mind when I hear the name. Instead, I think of the fireplace instrument that is used to rearrange burning logs and sometimes to fend off burglars. The second thing that comes to my mind is the idea of poking someone in the navel with my index finger. All in all, it's a delightfully ambiguous name.
