Argh, now you've got me considering a transparent case as well. It's a bit like being a restaurant where I want all the dishes on the menu. Worryingly, in this situation I often leave it until the waiter arrives and then choose the wrong thing!

By the way, Philipe posted some useful info on Kickstarter:

-> Selecting your color in the RMI will be closed around 5-10 March.
-> At the END, keyboard keycaps color are going to be available in the same colors as the cases.
For exemple, RUBINE RED keycaps for RUBINE RED cases. The lettering itself on keys should be white i guess. But we'll let you decide for that later on. We're not there yet

Last update:
This is it: Manufactured Case No.1 & No.2! YEAH!

Many Thanks to all of you for your patience.
Mass production is around the corner while we proceed to last verification using a couple cases produced using the new A1200 case molds.

Whatever some people may have said, we made it.
The new molds are here and this is a total of 6 Tons of steel with the name AMIGA on it!

Remember these are new Official Amiga 1200 cases licensed by Amiga Inc.


And because of you my friends, this happened for real



Now regarding compatible Keycaps:
The new campaign will be launched when cases mass production starts.
And this is very near now. 7 to 10 days or so.
Campaign will last 60 days.
Backers will receive their cases way before the keycaps campaign ends of course.


Stay tuned for some more update very (VERY!) soon.

Big congrats, (even if there would be further refinements before mass production starts).
In retrospect, this was no small achievement.
Thanx for the persistent, hard work on this project, Phil & Co.

Are all the cases that were manufactured only for backers ? Or will we be able to order a case at a later date ?

[demolition]

I think they are only for backers, however one of the backers is amigastore.eu which ordered a good amount for selling in their store:

OT: I'm back. My account was deleted but you can find my previous posts in this thread.

I've read the rules but... aren't them a little too strict? One is forced to write down a post every time to time and cannot use this forum as a resource or to follow the arguments that he is interested in?

Anyway, my older posts can be joined to my my new account?

Write a message to RCK about merging your accounts.

Inactivity pruning is only logical.

I'll do that. Thank you.

Keyboard cases for A4000 / CDTV keyboard next maybe?...
Perhaps ones that will take an A500 keyboard?...
