Just got my bare pcbs in the mail! Super stoked. Just need to say, I really dig the GG in the button contacts. That’s a really nice touch.

Thanks again for your hard work on these!

Guides are being done as we speak :). I'm in the process of uploading the image too. If you've finished a build send me a PM, I have a beta version of the image you can use for testing it all works.

I have to say, the support of the community has been amazing. Thanks everyone.

Thank you guys for doing what you're doing. I'm sure we're going to be seeing a lot more projects out there using the 2.6 screen with the driver used for the FE in the future. It's really going to push other projects further!

Hey!

Unfortunatly not but we do add the odd one that has been cancelled, so keep checking now and again as we do pop the odd one up. Also we do have some spares as we got a bit more than we needed so once all the pre orders are out, then we will open up the last few remainders as we don't want to swamp ourselves until these ones are all out :)

Thanks again for all your support as Bluup said its been amazing and we cant thank you all enough!

This is awesome. Thanks for everything you’re doing. I’m not too far along yet so I’ll probably wait for the alpha release.

The image for the device will be up by this weekend! I had issues shrinking the image down from the 64GB SD card it was on so I've ordered a couple of 8GB cards to put it on! I've managed to squeeze a bit more performance from the screen too! Which I'm really happy about.

But the best news: the lens are being manufactured as of today. I've been told 7-12 days. It's quite nerve wracking trusting my new CAD skills haha. I'll post a picture on my instagram and here as soon as I have them. Nearly ready to start shipping!

Awesome! I'm going to be stalking this sudomods thread at the website itself a number of times daily so I dont miss it when it's back in stock.
