@cow probably gonna take two months still because they're getting a brand new motherboard

@cow what kind of model did you order? the newest, assembled, with a311d?

@ElectronicAcorn it's getting smaller and smaller but i've been chasing some orders that were "stuck" for various reasons like having a non CE/EU item in them but to be shipped to EU. if you give me your order number i can look into where it is in the list tomorrow

ok, looks like at least 3 of the MNT Research team (maybe more?) will be at #38c3 (@holo_memory @theawesomerandomness and me)

@hanno if you tell them you don't need that usb-c PD charger and they can just refund it, they'll ship your order

@hanno thanks. the issue was the charger that was not cleared for EU import. they're saying that CS support had reached out to you about that a longer time ago, did you ever get that email?

@annika no, these are shipped by us directly and will also start shipping soon, they'll have another (new) display also

@hanno oh and can i get your order number?

currently we're preparing here 45x MNT Pocket Reforms to be sent to Crowd Supply/Mouser :3

@hanno ok that's weird because they have 18 of those in stock, even listed here https://www.mouser.de/ProductDetail/MNT-Research/PREF-HYPRWT-V10-R01?qs=ulEaXIWI0c%252ByAOG2utup4A%3D%3D

would you mind reaching out to CS support about this? i will also poke via my channel

first tries with publishing system controller firmware for MNT Pocket Reform on LVFS (fwupd). i'm just uploading builds by @ch2500

@janamarie i just wanted to respond to your original post to suggest it, but it's not that "hard" like the original leather on that camera looks like. we buy directly from ananas anam, back in the day you could just buy a meter from their online shop, maybe they still do that? there's also cactus leather (forgot the name) but we haven't tried it yet. cc @theawesomerandomness

@ElectronicAcorn no problem, it's good to know which models people are waiting for the most, anyway, while we're preparing to resupply

@ElectronicAcorn the campaign went from mar 14, 2023 until apr 27, 2023. did you order in feb 2024, i.e. post-crowdfunding?

anyone here that still didn't get their MNT Pocket Reform ordered in the original crowdfunding? if yes, which model? (permutation of single/hyper, purple/black case, white/red keyswitches)

@qwazix maybe you mean Answer?

@ryanprior why "deeply unserious"? i would understand it if you had asked _why_ i have this requirement instead of just trying to judge me like that without knowing the background?

i've been writing web-based software for more than 20 years professionally on all kinds of stacks like perl (starting with cgi-bin), php, java, scala, ruby (merb, rails, sinatra), python (bottle, django), go and rust. that's why i have experience and preferences for what i would like to maintain/host.

@amrowsell @jirka we know it's pricey, and it's because we can only make small batches which we assemble in berlin. Reform is available bundled with the cpu, the 16GB RK3588 option is "only" 200 EUR.

@ryanprior ok, thanks. i was worried about the "you're not serious" and the "go ahead"

@ryanprior i changed the wording now, is it more acceptable for you now?
