I’ve had a TextBlade Keyboard on order since May 2018. There are people with orders over 5 years old who are still waiting. If you’re not familiar with it, it is a completely new concept in keyboards. I wanted to know if anyone here has one? Maybe as part of the TREG test group? I’m getting frustrated waiting for it’s release to the public and starting to wonder if these guys at WayTools are vacationing in the Bahamas with everyone’s money!!! I can request a refund but I lose my preorder status and go to the back of the line if I reorder. So if anyone has received one, please let me know. This will help me decide if I want to keep my order intact. Oh also I do not want a full size keyboard. Right now I am using a Jorno folding Bluetooth keyboard.
 
How did you get a keyboard? Are you a TREG member? I've asked 5 times to join TREG and just emailed them again. I'll take one now as is. I believe their R&D is trying to put out a perfect product but that is not possible, especially with electronics. I'm signed up for pre general release but getting VERY frustrated waiting. I simply want my keyboard 😠😠😠

The whole thing is a scam. I can’t believe there are people who, after more than half a decade, still haven't got their deposits back and moved on. Search the forums here for a taste of people’s experiences, including mine. Let me be as clear as possible: you will never get your TextBlade. Never.

Thanks kabeyun. I'm in agreement with you. People are defending them saying R&D takes a long time especially with a radical new concept like their keyboard. That's a load of crap for the most part. One so called tester has a single issue, which is going to happen regardless of how much you develop a product, and Way tool goes back to square one and puts out some BS statement about their progress. Most of the time they don't even do that. No response to emails I send. I'm talking with an attorney about taking legal action against them.
Jimmy Hoffa will be found before Waytools gets to a general release.
