Switches and price (Feel free to tell us which one you like):
Edited: (On April 23th, our manufacturer confirmed that if we choose to use hot swap switches, they can only provide Outemu. no other brands, and it will not be compatible with other brands. Considering MOQ, we decided to choose soldered switches, and we can choose different switches.)
1. Outemu Brown/Blue/Red US$99-US$110
2. Gateron/Kailh Brown/Blue/Red / Gateron Yellow US$110-US$120
3. Cherry Brown/Blue/Red US$130-US$140
4. Just a kit without switches, I will solder 104 keys meyself!
Feel free to comment or just submit your ideas to our google form at https://forms.gle/yqSidvuLC86vtQ2r6 (https://forms.gle/yqSidvuLC86vtQ2r6).
Thank you!

This is really neat, I was actually working on figuring out how to slap a scroll wheel onto a keyboard myself the past few weeks. Would love to see a kit version!
-
Accepatable price range for a kit, with everything but without switches?
-
Any chance we can get that numpad out of there? Tkl version of this would be perfect.

Can not do that now since this prototype is out there. But will take thisconsideration for future.

Could totally get this for my Dad.

What is the thing that looks like a mouse nub inside those 4 circular buttons?

It's a button to control the scroll wheel, press on the control volume, off to scroll page.

if that becomes a trackpoint i am in. stretching for mouse is very tiring.

Detechable USB-C would be nice

I wouldn't mind to take out that control altogether.

Cool, thank you for the suggestion!

My vote goes for just a kit. The red, blue, brown choice is kind of low bar. There are so many better choices than those people would prefer.
Also as has been noted elsewhere, that 6-key needs to be moved to the left. That's probably a showstopper type issue for me personally.

No switches included please

Will discuss with the team. If possible, please submit this to our google form so that we can count you in regular update!

-_-
>Switches and price (Feel free to tell us which one you like):
Oh I see.
You came from the gamer world,
and had no idea about the customs keyboard scene,
or heck, even the ergo scene,
prior to this, didn't you?
Sigh... I bet there's a Kickstarter coming soon too.

I think most people press the 6 key with their left hand, so you might want to move it over to the left side. As for B, that key can be typed either with the left hand or the right hand since it's straight down the middle between the homing positions. You could have it on either side, or you could add an extra B key so it's present on both (see how TGR Alice did it).
Although, it looks like you already have finished prototypes and the molds are probably all already done, so it's probably too late for a change like this.

Yup, will noted for future prototype.

Just stumbled across this as I dig deeper in the rabbithole of trying to find an ergonomic mechanical keyboard. This looks absolutely perfect for me. Any idea when you might get them in production? I'm hoping to buy in the next few months.
I'm a newbie here, but if I can provide a counterpoint to the above requests for a kit, I think the availability of a non-kit version of this would open it up quite a bit more to the broader market. High-quality ergonomic keyboards are a bit of a rarity.

You gotta be kidding with those stabilizers. PCB-mount Cherry at a minimum.

Planing to lauch in 1-2 months. Feel free to join our discord for regular update!

Hmm, will test stabilizers carefully, and cherry is in consideration.
