And thats with a Row 3 Function Row?

Ignore Chief Wiggum its not simpsons related... It's RyanCelsius' Chill music mix sync'd up with footage of people driving around Japan.

i missed it

I just realize I haven't ordered anything for myself since the Honey Leftover stuff. I was meaning to get in on Cadet, but it never panned out

When did they make it so you had to login or have an account to see prices... come on MassDrop

No idea on that. I paid what I had collected and came out of pocket with the transfer fees.

Hi everyone, apologies for any and all delays that occurred on my part during this ride, life has a tendency to get in the way. I'll spare you the details, but I just want to say I'm glad to see things moving again. 8-) Also major shoutout to 7bit (and anyone who has collected funds for him) for the...

That is looking sharp matt3o

good to see this train is moving again

I thought thats why fountain pens were still popular in nations like Japan, China and Korea. Cause they were easier to write in those languages with.

More of the same old stuff from SP. I'll never understand why they kept putting off 7bits orders, arent his dollars as green as MassDrops? I understand picking and choosing your battles, but you cant just take payment... and then keep kicking the can down the road! Let alone making 7bit pay for reto...

Different strokes for different folks. They all have ipads too, but very much subscribe to the ethos fohat put forth. Single use items for each individual use.

There are other options, even if they non optimal for your use case.

oh wow this thread is still going:

back to the 80 year old family member, i do deal with that. and they both have flip phones, no need to give a needlessly complex device to someone who just wants a phone.

But still: How many people will buy these?

how small?

Hey there, ended up waiting til yesterday to process it all.

Sorry for the delay on my part, when I went to check Saturday there were only a few people.

PM'd 7bit to make sure everything is good, just waiting on him for confirmation.

IM NOT GONNA MISS THIS ROUND. 3RD TIME IS THE CHARM!!!!

Good Morning DT, PayPal updates will be inbound later today.

I agree about the DRM, its pervasive. Its pretty impossible to use a Chromium build without the DRM friendly codecs these days. The whole lockdown of accessories is old news for Apple, again the iPod history and the introduction of firewire are two other great examples. And that is your use case, un...

Well considering Xiaomi, OnePlus, and other OEM's run it, a fair number. I'm not talking about flashing anything, just new out of the box, without google. It should be on the shoulders of the user to make choices that effect them. And like you said, vote with your money. If you want less invasive/mo...

I'm not so familiar with hall effect, but is the spring the thing that dictates the feel of the keys? What standard 'weights' are in these boards so far?

@chuckdee Unless you get something that runs MIUI, or Cyanogen, or any of the other de-googled distros. It more open then you are making it out to be. If anything most of the control comes from the OEMs and carriers (carriers are more relevant in the US then elsewhere) and Google is fighting to wres...

'89 represent

Not sure what 'you still are' means... There are alternative stores on Android. Such as the F-droid F/L/OSS repo, and Amazon and other providers. If you want to talk about voting with money, support such services and donating to good devs.

It's not just a phone, it's an ecosystem. Companies addict you to the ecosystem (your apps, your music, your accessories) making it harder and harder to get out of it. There is not a company that does not do it. It's the best way to ensure continual income. And then they change things, and you find...

Now that Nokia is slowly freeing itself from M$ i anticipate Jolla will end up back in league with Nokia. And hopefully they will make more rad android devices... that arent vaporware.

I just hope he's ok, I remember he had a lot going on irl.

We're never there. This train never stops!

This is my new favorite thread.

I should get in on that white pack swag, even tho im missing out on literally all the Cadet shit i wanted.

I like the original size, was there a lot of demand for larger legends?
