Hey Jim,
Reaching out here to see if you can provide some sort of insight as to what the expectation level is for the Blingboard and the kepycap situation?
Everythings been pretty quiet since that whole Chris/Commodore debate and with Commodores now shipping, seems like there should be something said regarding your Blingboard campaign. The 'natives' ae getting restles, but to be fair, the backers deserve am update.
Best,
J

As I stated in the update, keycaps are in production for the backer keyboards. I ordered thousands of sets... many times over what is needed to cover the backers. When they arrive here I can take the colors and ship. I did not want to play the color game of trying to figure out an exact number to order. I learned from the keycap campaign that everyone changes their minds last minute and as a result there were not enough of some colors available towards the end of filling order.
Because of Commodore's new machines I was able to just stock a bunch of every color, making them readily available for the backers and then for future sales to those that have machines.

That's fine. I have faith and am simply sitting tight. I just saw the comments section on the Indigogo page had some emotions flaring. Especially with the new Commodores shipping and last update nearing 3 weeks ago and decided to reach out here.
Hopefully, the keycaps are to your liking and if so, perhaps Commodore stepping in, helpinh push things forward was a good thing.
Looking forward to good things!
Best,
J
