I had no difficulties to order them a few months ago. Don't know where that rumor comes from.

Phew, that's a relief. I've seen it mentioned on maybe two->three posts in the recent weeks. Nothing to worry about then!

However, to be on the safe side, better order some ~1000 or better ~2000 switches of them.

I got 0488 today. Thanks for the bonus keycap :D

Also there was a weird switch in the switch bag. Not sure if it's a gift or a mistake. It has something looking like an MX white stem, but with an angle, and a rectangular body with a Cherry logo on it.

This was not a mistake, it is a M94A-18NI and the stem is indeed MX-compatible.
:o

This switch might be interesting to DSA-people, because the stem is angled.
:cool:

Order-ID in the CherryMX group buy is:
M9CLEAR

Also available:
M5GREY (M51-0131)
M8CLEAR (M84A-0100)

I received #470 today, thanks 7bit :)

I also got a bonus switch that I didn't recognise. Now I know what it is!

Got a picture? How angled is it, and what is the feel and travel like?

It is like new MX black (ie not smooth :cry: ). When I've got the time, I will take pictures ...

There are some pictures in the wiki, see [wiki]Cherry_M9[/wiki] although they don't show the slight angle at the top of the stem.

Any idea on when the next batch of switch orders are shipped out?

I'm anxious to start modding :P

Now, why do I get the feeling that will be a while... :roll:

Well. I'm not getting the keycaps anytime soon either it seems 8-)

And without smilies (so you know I'm serious): Keep up the good work!

Nah. I'm no censor. I just don't want to disappoint anyone. I only had a handful, and we really need a real GB.

It would be great to pull off a large GB for them. Do you think it would be possible if we got enough interest?

You know the drill: 4000 MOQ.

Maybe it's worth doing interest check to figure out if it's possible...

It's a stretch. But then so many good ideas start that way. Go post an IC thread and see if people sign up for a good number each. And update the OP with the current tally.

I guess I could be in for another 10, depending on price. 7bit: how much does Cherry sell a 4000 box for anyway?

I could do with an MXLOCK-exclusive keyboard...

My order shipped with this group more than two weeks ago on 6 March 2014. Does it usually take more than two weeks to ship to a US address? Hopefully almost there...
