Here is some pictures of early prototype that I will show to Moto and Lenovo:













This is not the final version yet. But enough to show as a pre-production engineering prototype. (The final version will have a much better finish.)

English please, that's the language most understand, I won't delete this post, some complained & provided a translation for me.
What you said I don't think warrants being deleted or infractions...
Just express what you want to say in English, then more people can understand what you're saying, & express if they agree/disagree/don't-care.

Thank-you.

Looking good mate! You have just made me buy a moto z and donate in the hope that this reaches production

This really is as close as we are going to get to the n900 in 2017...and I think Im fine with that

Thank you! At this stage I can only guarantee that I will make this keyboard HW as good as I can. I can't do any help on SW yet as someone has to do a port of Moto Mod platform to make it useful in other OSes.

But hopefully with your and others' support to make project like this successful we might be able to create products even more closer to N900 in the coming future.

Is full Moto Mod platform actually needed to support the keyboard? This was brought up before, but if you use HID interface, it's implemented by Greybus HID kernel driver, so it should work with SFOS as-is as long as no additional Android-size initialization is required to enable mods.

Through this program Moto will help delivering product to their regions which will boost quatity of sales. And they will help on other aspects if needed.

Lenovo will support this project to keep it alive regardless of Indiegogo.

However I will do my best to fulfill IGG amount, probably I will put personal fundings in it. I really want to deliver to the contributors first.

P.S : This is actually the best outcome, if with investment then this company will be tied up with Moto Mods and I can't do with the next product I planned. At least IGG funds is still a small amount and being independant is also important.

That's good to hear man. You deserve their support regardless of the campaigns success/failure but i agree would be good to see those that believed in the product at the igg stage be rewarded for their support....Plus i haven't had much luck on the products i have believed in through crowd funding (although feeling like I dodged a bullet with the Ubuntu edge these days) so would be nice to see one actually reach completion. Would donate more if i could man and good to see someone with the skills and knowledge still hanging about the talk.maemo forums and trying to give back a bit of techy goodness...Keep up the good work
