The ErgoDox keycaps group buy just shipped. That's good. Would love an update on this one. It's been about a week and "early next week" came and went. I don't doubt that the timing is out of Massdrop's hands, but we're clearly eager and it's irresponsible to keep us in the dark when you've had our money for 3 months. Come on, guys. When a buy falls this far outside of normative time, you need to give periodic updates.

sidewaysmilkThey have shipped it. I just got mine today 1 minute ago. But my order only consisted of the Ergodox set, no switches or keycaps. I am also located an hour away from Massdrop company.

darkfire32Would you please care to share what your number was to join the buy? Would like to speculate on the assumption that they ship in order of members joining on the buy.
Also, where are they shipping from (state is OK, won't send a drone to spy on you, though I want your kit right now :O )

denesif you are in the buy there is a little blue star next to your total endorsement count, hover over it and see what participant he was. (aka its 242 you should be mad since you are 129)

ImaMoFoThiefIndeed, I am the 242nd buyer, I ordered my set approximately three days before the group buy closed. Massdrop is shipping from San Francisco CA and I live in Cupertino CA, which is about 45 minutes to an hour from San Fran. I believe that my order came in early because I ordered the barebones set, no keycaps, no switches, no assembly.
From their update, it seems that they are still waiting on some components, so if your order has a lot of extras then it might take longer.

darkfire32Thanks for the info. Yeah I ordered keycaps, no assembly, blue mx, but full hand. Maybe some of the options are keeping it back. But actually maybe not. It has to make it to Miami, register at the forwarder and just that last step might take 24 hours. Then 3-5 days till it makes it down here to Costa Rica...
Either way, I am happy they are shipping, I have this crazy idea of a keyboard with a built-in raspberry pi and and arduino I cannot wait with :O much longer :O
denesWhat exactly do you plan to do with a RPi and an Arduino in a keyboard?

Clear Switches w/ key caps, no assembly.

denesWell, I'm the first to join and mine hasn't even shipped. SO I guess that answers your question.
I had clears and added keycaps, though.
