We are still alive !!

Thank you for not forgetting.

This project was very hard.

I think it'll be over if we make one more sample.

GroupBuy is scheduled on "2020.11.01 ~ 2020.11.21".

Amount is don't know yet.


PS : Each part is a sample, so please take it into consideration.

Very exciting! Any more changes before GB starts? For example would love if it ran QMK/VIA instead of bootmapper

We confirmed that QMK supports VE.A's MCU and ISP Loader can be applied to the new PCB.

But, it is not within our scope of support.

We can't guarantee it.

Super glad you are still working on this. Thanks for your effort. QMK would be great but even confirmation that it is supported means someone will probably make it happen eventually.

Don't want to get my hopes up too high. This will be hard to get I am sure.

Before this head into GB phase, I have two questions...

- Any chance that you've ported the PCB to QMK?
- Is there any way you would consider other mid-pieces? Brass as an alternative (or addition) to the PC mid-piece?

Everyone's been amped to see the VE.A v2 make it to GB, but these things are what everyone (including myself) are looking forward to.

Also, is there any chance you'd make the VE.A v1 plate/mid-section/pcb files available? Been using this keyboard for years and would love to be able to modernize it in some fashion.

Is the pcb backwards compatible? Any chance the pcb files are available anywhere?

I plan on picking up a few VE.A's as I love my original VE.A.  I am worried long term that my PCB won't survive another de-soldering.  Are the PCB/plate files available for v1?  Or even just a DXF for the PCB?  I would be very interested in making a hot swap compatible PCB for the first VE.A and produce some plates for it.  At this point, since VE.A v2 GB looks like it's going to be a huge success, is it possible for you to help us out who supported v1 GB?

Thanks!
