What is SpaceFN and why you should give it a try
The SpaceFN concept - setting up your space key as a layer switch when held - is probably one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby. Let me explain how it works. My SpaceFN article on kbd.news made some rounds recently - quite surprisingly given the age of this concept. This piece you're reading is a condensed version of the full post. If you're left with unanswered questions, you'll most likely find the info you're looking for in the original write-up. On my imaginary top list of the most useful keyboard features, tweaks and hacks, SpaceFN would deserve a podium finish for sure. But what makes it so special? In short: SpaceFN is easy to implement, easy to learn, costs nothing, can be used with any keyboard, and can improve your productivity instantly. I will list its benefits below, but can state right at this point that the SpaceFN concept, setting up your space key as a layer switch when held, is clearly one of the most useful tweaks in the keyboard hobby....

As @KenM_CM pointed out, the container for our order of the keyboard finally cleared the port and the shipment of the keyboard arrived at Cooler Master’s facility just moments ago. In the meantime, we are arranging ground freight to have this shipped to our warehouse first thing on Monday. Once it is on its way, we expect the shipment to arrive our warehouse in 7 days.
Our guys at the warehouse are all prepared to handle the shipments and they will be prioritizing this order as soon as it shows up. To make up for the delay, we will also be upgrading the ship method for domestic members to UPS 3 Days, and USPS Priority for members outside of the US.
In an effort to manage the delay, we’ve been working on the side to explore alternative options. And we’ve been offering to groups of the members as we finalize these options. That’s why some of you might have received emails from us in the past 2 weeks with details describing your options. Feel free to revise your order at any point up until the CM Storm Keyboard arrives at our warehouse, and we will do everything we can to accommodate.
If you have any additional questions about the status of your order, feel free to contact Massdrop Support directly. We’ll be happy to help however we can.
Thanks for your patience, and it’s a relief that we are finally in the last stretch now. Expect an update from us on 3/20 or sooner
