KrupsterSo, a little hint about this revision (there is one feature change).
I've started to look at Bluetooth (but it won't be ready for a while), however, I'm having the debug uart exposed which opens up the possibility to mod the keyboard to bluetooth using say a BLE module and some firmware changes.

HaaTaWould this imply we could add bluetooth to this keyboard or would a new revision that supports bluetooth come out later?

HaaTaWhat are the changes to the board this second drop, and do you believe that there will be a third? I got one with blues, but I'm considering getting one with clears for taking to class with me, and need to justify it to myself :P

CaptnIgnitIn this revision we could support a bluetooth add-on (easiest with the caseplate). I don't have any firmware support at all right now. But it would be possible to add (and I will accept patches).
We had to do some minor pcb changes anyways, so I decided to sneak this really small (and useful) feature in. Otherwise the pcb (like the plates) would have stayed the same.
Bluetooth will be a feature in future keyboards. But there are no plans on what that keyboard will be or the layout it will have. I can say that the next keyboard will not have Bluetooth though (but it will have support for an add-on like this as well). However, once I've full implemented NKRO Bluetooth (that's the hope anyways). I'd be open to doing a Bluetooth Infinity.

dumle29If this drop goes well, I expect there will be another some time in the future. But since this is already our second run, I wouldn't expect any hardware feature changes (and hopefully no more pcb revisions).
