already using Pocket Reform as my benchtop computer at work

some routing progress on Pocket Reform

@deshipu it has!

so... do you want a cute open hardware 7" computer with mechanical keyboard and optional LTE/5G connectivity?! what would you do with it?

first routing complete, tomorrow double check and BOM checks

made some progress on combined mini ortho keyboard/trackball

MNT Reform shipment 1 going out to Crowd Supply / Mouser!

what a year! thank you so much for your support. in 2021 we built and shipped 100s of open hardware laptops, a first batch of keyboards, more zz9000s and developed new products. we will take a little break and then make sure everyone who is still waiting will get their MNT gear.

doot

oof we already sold out most of our MNT Reform standalone keyboards, but there are still a few "Retro Lime" and "Translucent Polycarbonate" available! (The translucent version has a solid black aluminum bottom plate btw!)
