I remember reading a post here in his sub forum where he said he's not pursuing the business anymore. Perhaps you can search his sub forum?

QWERKeys is no longer in business but I believe he's still offering other stuff including the Pok3r. You can PM him. Nice guy.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Found this: https://www.facebook.com/QWERKeys/posts/811348932291997

But that was signed by Dan and not Tim. I know that I bought a QWER9 (leftover stock) from Tim not too long ago. I guess the best would be for Nikelu to just send Tim a message to ask

He's not in business anymore. He canceled the pre orders for the pok3r after keeping the thread alive for many months.
