I've received the TeX Yoda today. Here are my firsts impressions :
Package:
The packaging is good. The case is the Beetle one.
The package contains some modifier keycaps (control on caps lock for exemple), 3 trackpoint tips and a cool usb cable.
Usage:
The keyboard is pleasant to use. With the default settings the trackpoint is too sensitive. So i reduced the sensivity in the GNOME settings and now it's perfect. I've used the DIP switchs to set Fn key on the caps lock and switch the keycaps. I'm eager to received the round 5 keycaps to mount bépo caps !

The body looks interesting: what's it made of? And that looks like a Command symbol on one of your mods, which would explain the mouse sensitivity thing too: Mac user! (Hi!)

He said Gnome settings, so probably Linux.

Ah, good catch! Too much of
the good stuff this fine holiday. I guess Command is just a less irritating placeholder, then, for the Microsoft Surface logo or whatever it's called these days!

Also note the Thinkpad X201 (I think) behind the keyboard
Can't wait to receive mine!

I like how you write TEX as TeX, as in Knuth... Some kind of autocorrect function in your mind, I guess...

Hum i've forgotten to say that the trackpoint keys have a little to much travel. It's normal because it's standard Cherry MX but i will think to reduce the travel for these 3 switchs.
