This is a new 60% keyboard based on Matias ALPS switches -- which are available in both clicky and quiet versions. You'll be able to buy it as individual components you can use to build one yourself, or fully assembled by us (no effort required).PC and Mac layouts are shown below, along with preliminary case drawings.The Matias 60% has fewer compromises vs. the Poker and others out there... You get not only arrow keys, but a full Nav Cluster, which is unheard of on a keyboard this small.All of the above is possible because of the special 3/4u and 1.5u PBT keycaps we designed, and because ALPS switches can support 3/4u spacing (Cherry switches cannot).Having said that, we plan to offer Cherry switch support for all the keys above the bottom row, since they all use standard spacing. This will make it much easier to find replacement keycaps.We understand that some people may NOT want full Nav key support. If that's you, the kit will also support Arrow keys + Fn + Menu / Option keys on the right side. Just solder in two switches instead of four.Fn-Arrow keys will also map to PgUp/PgDown/Home/End to accommodate people used to that.We had requests for programmability. In the spirit of that, we are supporting system-side Fn layer macros. The keyboard itself will not be programmable, but each key in the Fn layer will have its own unique keycode, which you can capture and assign to a macro on your PC/Mac. The side benefit of this is that you can assign different macros for different OSes, allowing you to use the same keyboard on multiple OSes, without conflicts.Further in the programmability vein, we will be posting the mechanical specs of the PCB, so if you really really REALLY want it programmable, you can buy the case/plate/stab/keycap parts and make your own electronics using a Teensy or whatever You will be able to set various options via DIP switches. Ctrl / Caps Lock will be swappable, as will Esc / Tilde for the Fn layer. You'll also be able to set the layout to PC or Mac (shown below).Please post your interest in each of the categories of options below.
