Hi.

As far as I was aware the CNC case was ordered around 2nd/3rd February, and we were expecting it within a couple of weeks time (which hopefully means next week). Have searched on forum and haven''t found any news on it since the 3rd Feb. Have I missed anything? If not, any news you can tell us Openpandora team? smile.gif

Great, you didn''t ask him about the keymats. You do know we are only allowed one question a fortnight, right?

They keymat has been in mass production for a while now, but those final moulds take a loooong time.

That depends on a few parts which are running late, it''s hard to know because of that.

Would it be possible to get a new estimated roadmap by the latest Feb 27th?

Just general ideas so we could all get an idea of where we are. I''m also very interested in hearing good news with orders through bank transfer and check/MO.

Making the mold is separate from printing the letters on the surface. They''ve still got time to finalize the layout.

everything. We''ve been told the keymats are in mass production but don''t have them all yet, the boards are going into mass production, and the case hasn''t even been started yet. I think the only thing they have completely is the screens, and that''s only because they come from a 3rd party tongue.gif

2 Weeks for a CNC Case... is this good or bad? happy.gif And when the Case doesn''t fit, does this mean another 2 weeks and so on?
Hmm... when the phrase "time is money" is true, then the Pandora will be a very very expencive produced piece of Hardware I think. wink.gif

I thought someone said all the parts were in too. By parts I don''t mean PCBs etc, but all the components.

What about the Power supplies? With all the different destinations with their differing voltages and plug types, is it going to be some universal device or one specific to each zone?
