How buy the TEX Yoda TrackPoint Keyboard

[bgoodr]

From copious amounts of applied Google-Fu, I have come to the unfortunate conclusion that the TEX Yoda TrackPoint Keyboard is offered for sale only through massdrop:

Is this true?

But that listing shows:



So when can we expect this to be launched again? Anyone know the status?

Thanks,

Massdrop seem to relaunch things on a regular basis - ie, when they're done with one drop, they'll come back to another that needs relaunching. My tactic is to look through the discussion history and see how frequently it was launched in the past and try and figure out how long until it's launched again. Obviously, that only works with things that have been launched multiple times in the past and even then it's not a concrete estimate.

Thanks Plasmodium.

Ok, well then I conclude that it is just a waiting game then. Apparently Massdrop is the only way they release TEX Yoda's to the public.

It's definitely not based souly on the number of requests. I think the Infinity Ergodox has many thousands of requests to re drop.

That's been delayed by the fact that they haven't finished shipping the last drop yet - there were some design issues with the PCBs and a shortage of LCDs apparently. From what I've heard they'll drop again as soon as this drop is finally concluded.
