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 did not receive any further updates from MD, so I decided to email support. The representative who emailed me back, Deanna, said this on Thursday the 12th:
"We are still waiting on our batch of the KBC Poker II Compact Keyboards to arrive at our warehouse. Once they do, we'll work to get them repackaged and shipped out to all of you awesome people as soon as possible. As always, you will automatically receive an email with tracking information the moment your package is on the way. Feel free to keep your eye on the discussion page, though, as that is where we will post updates as we get them!"
I'm not sure if this means the boards were already shipped from China and MD forgot to update us, or if they haven't even left China yet...
