The project has taken so much focus that I haven't had the time nor skill to heavily improve the website's CSS/aesthetics. Or if you mean just the content, any suggestions for what I could consider adding now (besides…
Hey HN, Solder_Man here. I am the guy behind Pockit. Thrilled to see this modularization effort has the support (and useful criticism) of so many deep thinkers in this thread. First, a clarification: Since people have…
My engineer-mind hesitates to state a number until I finalize the BOM and get tooling quotes, etc. At that point, I'll put up the pricing, etc. on the website and mailing list. But keeping Pockit's cost down is…
Glad you changed your mind. About "limits": As u/moistbar also pointed out, the number of pins of the Broadcom CPU, and of the STM32 microcontroller, would provide a constraint. If more positions was important, I could…

As I mentioned in a deeply embedded comment somewhere on Reddit, wait for the upgraded-PCB version demo coming up in the next week, you're going to love it if you're a fan of the CM4's more powerful Broadcom CPU. Note:…
> megapockit with a huge backplane and a big modular keyboard Look at that... the human mind is phenomenal. We're not all ultra-skilled, detail-oriented electrical engineers. So why does every person have to go through…
Only high-bandwidth signal groups (such as HDMI) have the limitation of being usable at only one (or a few) positions. Technically these too can be given more/complete placement freedom, but at the cost of a higher PCB…
Used to be just me. But two amazing people assisting me now (one of them full-time); immediately took this decision upon recognizing the significant community interest from Reddit, et al. The trackpad is one of my…
"Play" sounds about right. I've enjoyed the exponential multiplier in prototyping+design speed I've gained as each new block was made. "Mass produced" -- no mass-production plans yet, however... will be ordering and…
