New A600 Cherry MX keyboard (Kit Form) - Page 2

@freon Thanks for the pictures, they will come in handy. I received a reply from the factory stating they are able to proceed once the final layout is done. I think the way to do this is continue with the original layout as shown in the original post and then add the missing keys as extra so the 5 different types can all be achieved.

So next on my list is to try to get the best price and get a delivery schedule, but first i need a sample set to verify the quality. Leaving the keycaps in this layout means all moulds are available now so hopefully there won't be too much of a delay

Forgot to mention. The Factory can also produce cases as well. They need an STL model so if anyone has a working model that wants to be involved then let me know.

Cool news.
Adding the AZERTY layout too... just in case.

Apologies for the thread necromancy, but I wanted to see if anything ever came of this or the A600 new case run? Is it still possible to get on a waiting list for one of these kits?

I'm looking to build an A600-case MiSTer and a mechanical keyboard setup would be ideal.

This keyboard here will never be released i guess. You have to look out for something else, maybe aeberbach's keyboard.

Well, I was looking at Project Julia and seeing if it could be modified for an A600 keyboard
I'd buy a keyboard kit and case if available
