Very interesting. Well done, sir.

Looks very nice but why the gaps on the corners? I cannot get past this.

I'm the exact opposite haha. My thoughts were more along the lines of "thank god for something that doesn't look just like every other 60% PBC." Reminds me of my glorious HHKBs

Yep, I definitely like this layout. My name is in your draw

Pretty cool, is there a possibility of ISO support in the future?

They mentioned on Reddit that ISO support is definitely planned for round 1.

Good to hear it, also found this information in the GH thread now.
Probably I will still pass on this one as I need a standard bottom row with Winkeys intact.
But the price I've seen seemed like a really good deal, and the arrows are integrated very neatly.
