The wait on the keypads here is also painfull! But should be sent before the end of the month! Fingers crossed!

Hope it'll be soon, my Jolla is starting to show serious signs of fatigue (the screen shows a thick yellowish pattern on one side). Would be way too frustrating to get my tohkbd2 (well, my 2 tohkbd2 ) after my phone's death.

Dirkv, Kimmo, is it possible to unlock the Jolla with only one tap on the screen when the keyboard is open, like on the N900? I mean, no double tap, no lock screen, but rather app covers or, even better, last app used. Being back to the N900 currently (last Sailfish update went wrong and nothing works anymore, trying to find a fix before factory reset), I remember how useful and convenient it can be. For instance, today I used Sygic, and it was not set to keep screen on during navigation, so I had to wake the screen regularly. More complicated ways to wake it up or to restore Sygic would have been impossible to use. And that's just an example, the same applies for reading and so on.

Basically, if you have your keyboard open and the screen goes to sleep, then you have been interrupted in what you were doing (otherwise you would have closed the keyboard). So you don't want to double tap, go to lockscreen, swipe, find the right app cover among the others, and finally tap it, just to resume what you were doing before being interrupted. Since two days that I can resume this way, I've been amazed by how many times this can happen each day.

Perhaps a simpler way would be to execute a script that keeps display on when the keyboard is open.

That's great news (appreciate you giving an estimate too)!

Any idea how much time you think it will take to ship all of the kickstarter orders? I'm trying to work out when my funkyOH order might arrive, and I know it won't be shipped until all the rest are done.

Late to the party but the suspense is killing me already!

This is the first time I am doing this and I do not want to make people happy with a dead bird, but when I have more guestimations I will post them.

More daily and less official guestimations on #jollatohkbd IRC

Sparrow. Dead sparrow. But hey, you can make me happy with it, as long as the keyboard comes. But that's another cook

Different cake. That's different cake.

I thought the end was search :-P

"The keypad is under assembly now, very slow output, I will check the status early tomorrow morning and let you know at once."

Will make some update this week. Little updates, but have done a lot of assembly and preparations behind the scenes.

Hi Dirk,

I'd like to preorder, but the shop says out of stock. Do you have an estimate when you will open that again?

Second question: I would be curious about some statistics on the project, especially how many people ordered which cover/backplate/keyboard color/layout - would be cool to have that while everybody is waiting for there keyboards to be assembled

Thank you for your great work!
Marcel
