I like the front view and option B for my preferences. But why a flat design and not angled?

Ergonomically, I do not find that comfortable and that is why I am personally not a fan of this.

oh.. john

How come both versions cant just be offered in 1 non-hotswap pcb? Will there be options for feet? Not a fan as well of the flat design

I am in the market for a 17-key numpad, so I am your ideal customer. But... correct me if I'm wrong... this has a 0 degree typing angle? :S

If it is (in order of importance):
* Sounthfacing switches (mandatory for me)
* All 1 u (mandatory for me)
* VIA (mandatory for me, because I will use this as macropad too duh)
* White (or at least black) (not mandatory but who doesn't like these colors)

I am IN FOR THIS, YEAH!
If not, goodbye :)

I have a q about rgb: would it be per-key rgb?

Btw being completely honest if it would be flat you could use it horzontally (just think about it people) for gaming or more as macropad. Though I liked angled numpad, so either decision is kinda ok

I'm not sure what is more lazy, the product or the IC.

Couldn't agree more. Hope for round 2 with grid layout (v 1) if default numpad layout (version 2) is decided already

Is it sounth facing or north facing? I may try this (if find something closer to my liking probably easily sell since there isn;t a lot of numpads haha) since it is 100 usd but this is really important for me

I just finally received mine. However, there doesn't seem to be any instructions on how to flash the PCB for VIA compatibility, as the device isn't being recognized right out of the box. Some instructions would be appreciated.
