Funny. He probably could have asked his Gradma for tihs as well. Amiga Inc sold already "every Amiga copyright in the universe" to Cloanto.
Hmm. Maybe I should ask Amiga whether they sell me all their stuff again... (-; They seem to have a track record for causing problems for their "clients".
So, this sounds at least pretty fishy to me.
Just for practical matters: Manufacturing a keyboard with a custom key layout is probably going to cost a bit. It is not that you can print this with your average 3D printer. It needs a custom membrane, just to name one issue.
Oh well, I^m not going to hold my breath for this to appear.
Tbh I have stopped to try to keep track of who owns what long ago
But about the keyboard, the case would cost quite a bit for the injection molds yes.
But as for the rest of the keyboard they could just go with mechanical switches, then a PCB for it would be drawn quite quickly and design wise it would save a lot of headache. Then keycaps would be no issue either.
I do not think the keyboard will see the light of day tho, but who knows.
