    It should be more expensive. These aren't made in millions of units by exploited chinese teen girls, who give up their future and education for few pennies while working in a sweat shop.

    It's just a dutch dude (and apparently some help from a finnish geek) bleeding his free time to get a 75 units of these done.

    Most stupid question and comment so far...

    If you really think that dirkvl's personal time and effort is worth nothing of your money, you can just grab the dropbox files that he kindly released and build the device yourself.
    That should make you understand that *prototype* manufacturing is neither simple nor necessarily cheap.

    Personally I think 100 euros is cheap price. I might pay it from a mass produced qwerty too. It just is such on add on that I haven't had with Jolla and dirkvl work was the final trigger that I even bought Jolla. Otherwise I could have been returned back to Desire Z.

    first 16 are on their way!

    for these people:
    please remember that this is not a polished product and can -and will- have imperfections! also, the software is not yet done and everything will be a bit hackish at first.

    if there are any problems with them, please email me, then i can more easily help with fixing the problem then when we fill this whole thread with issues

    also, the shipping was a little cheaper than anticipated. if you want the difference back, send me a message. otherwise it is converted to a crazy-otherhalf voucher for future projects!

    also, i am exhausted. this whole keyboard making is a bit more work than anticipated. i am learning a lot though, so that is always good!

    ow, last thing! a very few people -like 3 or so- have a very limited edition keypad! see if you can spot the difference!
