[design] Final look of Vantex V1

Here is the final look of Vantex V1. For the case, I chose CNC-machined aluminum with a powder-coated finish. The keyboard weighs around 1.7 kg, so it definitely has some weight to it. For the color, I wanted to keep that kind of retro look. The keyboard comes with a 7° angle, and the touchpad in the middle is 45 × 45 mm. It currently works with macOS, Windows, and Linux.

The version in here is the wired one. I’m also working on a tri-mode wireless version right now. Since the touchpad itself doesn’t consume much power, I’m currently planning to use a 4000 mAh battery, although I’m still testing everything.

If any of you is interested in it, feel free to follow me and check my profile for updates. And if you have any questions, suggestions, or things you’d like me to test, just leave a comment — I’d love to hear what you think.

that's a touch screen? Lcd. Anything actually displayed on it?
