Is there a Wireless/Bluetooth Keyboard made by DROP?
Or planning to have one? I'd like to try the DROP + OLKB Preonic keyboard but it only connects with the cable.

Drop Ctrl Keyboard Shutting Off
Hi, I've had a drop ctrl for the past year and I've never had any issues after flashing it with a config, but after I moved and rebuilt my set up I've been having this issue where if I press too many keys at once or too quickly, it completely shuts off for a few seconds. This only happens when I have n key rollover turned on and does not happen when 6 key rollover is on. I've tried flashing it with the config again, restarting my computer, changing usb ports, creating a new config with the modern firmware version which resulted in the keyboard shutting off entirely after turning on n key rollover, and creating a new config with the original firmware version which resulted in the original issue. If you can offer any help, it would be greatly appreciated. Here's a video of the issue

The Planck Shift (keyboard idea)
The idea starts with the Planck Light. We take this keyboard with it's low-profile switches and keys and hyper minimalist/slim design. Then, we make changes to the design. First, we change it from a MIT layout to a grid layout. We don't have an orientation problem because of the color of the keycaps are different on the bottom row and outer left and right columns. Now the thumbs can do their thing as modifier keys (space as well). Now for the "big idea": changing the key caps: What if each key cap had capacitive touch sensors which can communicate to the board. As you lay your fingers on the home row, this communicates to the QMK firmware that you're in the default layer. Once you shift all four of your fingers up a row entirely (left hand on QWER and right hand on UIOP), then this will change the layer to of the keyboard, enabling an entirely new layer. If you shift down from the home row, (left hand on ZXCV and right hand on M,./), then you enable another layer. By shifting...
