Doesn't matter, I was just saying the displayed city didn't match mine and that was just a little joke hence the ":P" emoticon ;)

Just to be totally sure, the cheapest way to get a black tohkbd2 is to get a 120 € pledge?

I'm about to pledge, and I'll probably pay the 20 €extra dollars for the black colour too. I want my Jolla to be as less conspicuous as possible. :)

60 backers in no time... Wooow!!

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
No way to add a second TOHKBD as an "add-on reward", too bad :(

By the way, are those colors definite? I had dark brown in my mind, thought it could go nicely with Lastucase. Any word? ;) (Not that it's a huge disappmointment -or even a small one :P)

I'm in too.
Good luck Dirk with reaching KS goal!

The ability to assign .sh scripts to key combinations is excellent. And it is an excellent news too. Good bye diptoh, welcome tohkbd2!

And the special bonus for tohkbd1 backers is very nice and unexpected, thanks a lot!

Last but not least, the Jolla 100 € coupon for all new users buying a tohkbd2 is damn excellent! I even think it should be more visible in the Kickstarter campaign. There are not so many good smartphones with hardware keyboards these days, this might be the opportunity to get new users that didn't even know Jolla, but miss hardware keyboards on current smartphones.

I just pledged did this too to get a black TOHKBD.
As far as I know, you won't get a white one with the default €100

Just pledged for the colored version!

Good thing we did some tests with DipTOH to check if this is possible ;)

This was funny, I suggested it to Jolla and they replied they already had lots of internal mail and were about to suggest the exact same thing :D

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
I'm in! Let's hope we reach the goal.

Good news is, TOHKBD has already made to #1 in What's Popular under the Technology section :)

pichlo 2014-11-04 13:02

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
It would be nice to have the option to buy the TOHKBD cover and the keypiece separately. For cases when two or more members of the same household want to share the keyboard. They could buy n covers and one keypiece. The design lends itself to that quite nicely.

EDIT: I've pledged too. Using a card that expires 06/2015. As an extra incentive to deliver by then ;)

Mine will expire by January 2015. Isn't it debited at the end of the kickstarter campaign if it's successful, in December?

I really hope we reach the 55k goal, it's already a large amount for a restricted community such as Jolla's.

Any chance to order two, by pledging double the amount? (only one pledge per account in KS, another difference from Indiegogo, not sure if should also add another shipping fee, or would it be the same for two keyboards?)

yes, just double the pledge amount, no extra shipping

Plegded for 120 euros! :)

Same here!

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
Not Bad - 260 backers within an hour and a half.

If it goes on in this speed for a few days, you will make the injection-molded version after all.... ;-)

Edit: one of the 260 is me with a 120,- pledge :)

nodevel 2014-11-04 14:39

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
Dirkvl, just a suggestion:

I would put the information about the 100EUR discount all the way to the top. Right now, it's on top of the popular items in Technology, which means that it's seen by many people who had no idea what Jolla is. These people might like the idea of a QWERTY phone, but will not likely read the whole thing to find the discount info at the bottom.

I would also add it to the FAQ:
Q: What if I don't have a Jolla?
A: Then there's a chance for you... etc.
Q: What the heck is Jolla?
A: Well...
:)

Kabouik 2014-11-04 14:40

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
I agree with Nodevel, as stated on previous page. There's an opportunity here. And maybe add a link to Jolla.com, their website is rather sexy.

Really? So 2 x 120 € + 1x shipping = two coloured TOHKBDs? That's what I meant with 'add-ons'! Thanks! :)

Wow !!! 310 Backers, €38,566, after less than 4h !!! I'm one of them :cool:

It's above 40k now...

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
Yep, the knocking-off time might finish it today. :> But let's see, the last grands are surely the most difficult to get.

Will this hit the record time of reaching the set target in kickstarter?

Only 2 €100 deals left!

Last chance for the cheapest early bird deal.

I picked a great day not to bring my credit card into work.

Remember your credit card number. Always. #1 rule to survive if you tend to buy things easily on the Internet, as I do.

They do as much as they can without hijacking my project.

Sorry, I did not realize Jolla were providing support, I take back what I said. I guess I was just disappointed at the time that the HWKB was nowhere to be seen. This launch changes everything though, I will definitely be ordering.

There's soon going to be one, as I am upgrading my pledge to custom color. Black it is! :)

EDIT 1: Now available.
EDIT 2: Gone already.

Don't worry. I don't expect jolla to help you more. I expect jolla to hand over the design for future jPhones to you, so you can help jolla even more. You have done something that jolla failed to do. Engaged the community and made something unique and exiting. Dirk for President and CEO.

I also want to say congrats to the great start of this campaign and thank you to all the backers. Now I need a beer, a credit card, 5 min of awesome calmness so I can back this campaign.

This is by far the best campaign since Ubuntu Edge. Yeah, the Autoblow 2 was pretty awesome too ;)

Mikkosssss 2014-11-04 17:46

Re: TOHKBD rev2
 
Is there any way to get two pieces in different colours?

I would like to have cover piece in red and keyboard piece in black. :)
