I meant you would think they would have it in stock by now with such high demand xD

They never had it in stock yet. I came to their site to preorder so I never thought it would arrive very quickly

But it should be in stock soon I think.

Oh, I see xD what site are you ordering from

I see, I wonder if there are any in brick & mortar stores...

I have no idea.

Also, I got this e-mail from them 11 days ago:

Well, preorder phase is over. They have not been supplied yet.

Oh, I guess I misunderstood the e-mail

There is something to celebrate:

After just about one year (of mostly waiting for parts) it is finally done!

u/p2 December 15, 2016, 08:58:20 PM

well that's nice

The only thing that would even be cooler if the upper side of the keyboard would include the connectors instead of cables coming out of it ^^
can you provide a photo of the back of it?

Ooh nice to see this done, and yeah I agree with DarkestEx. I wonder how hard it would be, though? Also to be honest maybe it's a good thing if the cables come out, as it could be easier to connect, especially if he doesn't have much room.

I wonder how long it will take until even such homemade project will start using the USB type C connector... ^^

USB Type C and USB 3 require support from the SoC or eventually from a separate interface connected to it through a high-speed bus. It's much more than just playing with connector sizes like when you go from a 2.0 standard A connector to miniUSB or microUSB.
Since none of the cheap single-board computers on the market right now support USB Type C (and I don't think any support USB 3 in the sub-$50 range, either), it's probably going to be a couple of years before we see hobbyist projects using Type C.
