just curious about one thing: it looks like the front doesn`t quite close. is this just my lousy monitor or does the case not quite fit perfectly?
oh, i thought the mk3 is final and ed ad an mk2? now i`m really confused.

Yes, what is not final is the case, that is why it does not fit perfectly.

I have no idea. Within a week I would hope, but it all depends on who has the time and resources to do it. What matters is that mainstream tech sites will only feature so many Pandora-related stories. If they post one today with the quick video, they won't post one in a couple days with a slightly better version. Since they're only going to post one video (if any), I'd rather it be the good one.

I'm quite sure that's wrong, since the CNC-case is supposed to be final as well as the MK3-board (which I think MWeston has got). That little gap is probably due to the keymat, it looks too thick. But I'd love to hear from MW himself!
Just gotta say it one more time, it's an awesome video! Creds for taking your time recording it!

I'm still betting that it's the hard rubber keymat that's stopping it from closing correctly. The video shows that the back closes just fine but the parts above the SD slots don't. Seems to me that the SD slots will make the board more rigid in that spot and the keymat can't push it down enough to make it fit like it can with the rest of the case.
By the looks of the video, both the joypad and stick seem to have a good amount of movement and sensitivity. Nice work devs

Well, hmm hmm... We will need confirmation then. But I really would like the case to fit and be strong.'Tripmonkey_uk' said:I'm still betting that it's the hard rubber keymat that's stopping it from closing correctly.

Hey Prophet! Good to see you posting again!'Prophet' said:Impressed.
Looks nice and compact.
I'll probably reorder from the second batch. Not in a hurry anymore. Best to all the first batchers.
Yeah. that stiff, basically unusable keymat is pretty unforgiving inside the case. The PCB should line up with the top of the SD card slot holes but it sits low and you can see the board edge a bit through the slot opening so that right there creates a gap in the two halves. More proof of this can be seen with the nubs that are sitting a bit low and that is because the keymat keeps the board from getting close enough to the top plastic (and sitting flush on its mounting pegs).'Tripmonkey_uk' said:I'm still betting that it's the hard rubber keymat that's stopping it from closing correctly.

Will this require a whole new CNC case to be made?'craigix' said:Just some final tweaks to the case.

It's all another step in the right direction. I'm quite impressed with how well the light pipes work and concentrate the light into nice little rectangles but still keep that slick continuous feature flush with the hinge.
Well that's good to know. Thanks!
