I've tried a lot of really nice mech keyboards but this is the one thing that makes me go back to my 'ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II'. It's super nice to never have to leave home row and I definitely feel the relief in terms of RSI.

#605Looks great. Would you consider making this Ortholinear? I used to use the TypeMatrix 2030 & loved it. The issues were it's durability, necessity of using skins, non-programmability, & it's usage scissor keys. I have since switched to the Ergodox EZ for home & Planck EZ for travel. The Planck is compact, durable, & programmable...however what's missing is an ortholinear programmable travel keyboard with a full assort…

#609I want to hear more about what you expect the rotary encoder to be used for. You clearly put a lot of thought into making it happen, so - why? I feel like there must be some interesting use cases, but I'm drawing a blank.
