Just got an email with this

I don't think the market needed another keyboard but the early birds are nicely priced and the release date is close enough. I think overall is well done and they tried to find the middleground between gaming and stylish.

Not a fan of floating keys and what in effect looks like machining marks.

Some rather nice ideas in there, like a removable number pad and a "media dock",
but…

We believe gaming is a lifestyle

Oh, really?

Seriously though I welcome any new keyboard that actually tries to do something.

That said it is filled with typical kickstarter marketing words of empowerment which always are pretty amusing. Modular, tailor made to your tastes.

I'll always remember this hamburger shop near me that said they had tens of millions of combinations of burgers. Which while true, I doubt they ever sold any olive relish cheese sandwhiches on the bun, hold the meat.

what I would like is an open firmware to be able to customize the LCD under the numpad buttons and the "media dock", but that is not gonna happen and it will be the same old windows-only half-baked and never updated app

Dont forget 300mb install size, always be running, take up 500mb of ram and 17% cpu usage.
