The long journey of the WhiteFox

Matt_ · 10 Dec 2015, 12:19

Nice! But, no numpad & WKL child sets as shown on the render above, just the base + WF + ISO?

matt3o · 10 Dec 2015, 12:46

to keep the price down we offered only the minimum number of keycaps, but the full set with all options will be available on a separate group buy (so I'm told)

Matt_ · 10 Dec 2015, 13:49

That seems reasonable!

hasu · 10 Dec 2015, 16:31

A PCB has been sent to Hasu, too so hopefully we will also have a TMK version.

OK, available now. This is based on flabbergast's ChibiOS/TMK, Thanks.

Enjoy!

Any idea what the price range will be?

OMG! would you marry me?!

Wow, and now there's TMK for it...this is getting more and more tempting.

I have a Granite R2 set from the way back when of the Elf board. I wish i had a Granite Whitefox key to go with it

that's actually a very nice idea for round 4

SL89 · 10 Dec 2015, 17:06

Would that entail getting an R4 set or could i just get the whitefox keys?

I'll get one for you, but don't tell anybody!

pcaro · 10 Dec 2015, 17:26

Have you seen the WhiteFox massdrop page? Not published yet (newsletter) and more than 1200 requests and 170 comments in the discussion. A complete success before begining!!

Only 500 units. Desthority members set the clock alarm because the WhiteFox keyboards are going to disappear

braidn · 10 Dec 2015, 17:57

Yeah, going to be a race at 11:59 tonight.

chzel · 10 Dec 2015, 18:02

More like tomorrow morning for most of DT!

guk · 10 Dec 2015, 18:06

Hope MD doesn't raise the limit if the 500 units are sold quickly and rather bring it back after the first drop was successful.

I agree, and I'll try to stop them if they intend to.

guk · 10 Dec 2015, 18:27

That's reassuring, can't let your baby come to harm.

SL89 · 10 Dec 2015, 19:15

The picture indicates a much wider set of switch options then the actual list.

That is absolutely insane, wow! I'm reading the MassDrop page now.

Don't worry. Once prices are finalized and tallied up, I'm sure that'll thin the flock.

larihi · 11 Dec 2015, 08:45

Looks like they raised the drop to 1,000 units. It will be interesting too see how quickly they're out.

guk · 11 Dec 2015, 08:55

Figures. 1500 requests, what else would they do.

pcaro · 11 Dec 2015, 09:24

As Matt3o said, the price is good. However I am going to wait for a groupby in Europe because I am afraid about import duties and customs charges

matt3o · 11 Dec 2015, 10:21

so it's up and already sold almost 250 pieces

Cafeine · 11 Dec 2015, 10:50

I was "nah I don't care, I'm all Topre now".

RHHHHHAAAAAAAa

OK BUT WHAT SWITCH. I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE. :x But srlsy, even with my switch tester, dunno what to take. Zealio? WHICH ONE? HELP. :x Topre is life but this looks too good. :x

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

EDIT : arf, cant get the kb assembled with Zealio soooo. FML. I may be able to resist then. :x

matt3o · 11 Dec 2015, 10:55

you know you can't

Cafeine · 11 Dec 2015, 10:58

THIS IS EVIL.

OFC I can't. :x Bhaaaaaaa @_@

But ok, Gateron. WHICH ONE. Damn I'll try to get some work done THEN I'll decide. :D

(I'll have to try the Retro kit on it too :P)

Matt_ · 11 Dec 2015, 14:27

Wow, what a start. 330+ units sold in a mere five hours.

I'll pass on the full version (I'd rather wait for the complete keyset to show up later, even if it takes months) but the price of the barebones version is insane.

stuplarosa · 11 Dec 2015, 14:30

Set my alarm for 2:45am and snagged a True with Zelios!

Now all I need is a SA Dolch Fox Edition and a Granite Fox!

... and maybe a RetroFox
... and
