I have seen devices just like this (keyboard, display, battery) on aliexpress.

And the 360 degree hinge is a big selling point for me! I'm glad i didn't pull the plug when i saw the KS go live last week. It's a great product but hard to justify spending more money for similar/worse functionality

Good point. In addition to being available right now, the Aliexpress version has a better battery (10000 mAh vs 5000 mAh on Kickstarter).

That second one seems to have a screen twice as high as the keyboard is deep, so when you fold it, the k/b only covers half the screen? That's just weird.

I'd like to see a short-wide-screen form-factor, where the folded device is just the size of the keyboard.

And a synaptic trackpoint as on thinkpads.
