A lot of this post doesn't make much sense in a text-only eMail - so if you want to see the full story, please head to the forum :)
Time for a new summary of the stuff that has happened.
Well, as mentioned, we're mostly working on the display now and preparing for the GamesCom (where we also want to present the Pyra with a display, of course)
Let's start with...
1. The Case -----------
The shoulder button area has been changed and looks a lot more usable now.
Of course, a test will tell us that.
Not much more has happened here, as we're mostly waiting for the final PCB and LCD.
2. The PCB ----------
Mainboard Rev3 is finished - which is already pretty advanced. It will be used to find design flaws, bugs - and then hopefully, Rev4 will be last.
The PCB will be populated next week.
Next up is a little photo story (well, visit the boards to see the pictures) showing how Nikolaus populates a display PCB.
Nikolaus bought himself some equipment (a stencil printer) to be able to populate prototype PCBs himself at home.
Next step: Get the Displays to work :)
3. The GamesCom and other preparations --------------------------------------
Askarus and I have been working on our GamesCom Booth.
Here is a small overview of what our booth most probably will look like is attached to the mail.
Additionally, I've opened up the Pyra section in the DragonBox shop: https://www.dragonbox.de/en/45-pyra
It will be filled with some merchandise products soon. I'll also put the actual unit on there (of course, it can't be ordered yet), as the shop supports notification eMails, so everyone who has interest in the device but doesn't want to follow the development can inscribe himself into the notification list and get an eMail when ordering starts.
See you soon :)
