PSA there's an updated MNT Pocket Reform Quickstart manual: https://mntre.com/documentation/pocket-reform-quickstart-and-safety-manual.pdf (done by @holo_memory) which shows some critically important shortcuts and the button assignments of the trackball, to avoid some confusion for first-time users that don't have the full handbook. Watching the first impressions video by @deBaer made it extra clear to me that this was required.
imagine if rents were really low, for homes and small businesses also... everybody would have a bunch more time and not be in a constant fight to make ends meet. imagine how one could take time to do stuff and how much interesting and creative spaces and stuff we could get. weird that (at least in berlin) this changed so dramatically (i'm here for around 20 years now). i know, i know, nothing new here. just saying!
@deBaer skippe gerade rein, kann schonmal sagen dass suspend/resume leider bekannterweise momentan broken ist. das ist sehr tricky zu debuggen. cool mit der mega customizeten tastatur und bin gespannt auf akkuexperimente!
i'm excited to announce that there's now a prelaunch page on Crowd Supply for the MNT Reform Next, where you can put in your email to receive further updates: https://www.crowdsupply.com/mnt/mnt-reform-next
the page will be updated as the prototype progresses and is more polished. keep in mind that the pictures show a 3D printed case, but the final model will be in black or purple aluminum (2 options).
