I really like the form factor of the Next, which is the big draw for me, although dedicated function keys would have been nice. The Next "family" can potentially introduce a lot of people to the QL, which is a plus for everyone.

The Q68 sounds great, and I would love to own one. But, and this is going to sound daft perhaps, I come from the school where if you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it. You have set me straight on that front at least. How does one go about getting a Q68?

Cheers,
Alan
I accept orders for the Q68, on the Forum, I will add you to the waiting list.

I am i the process of building 60 Q68 boards and built into a split design Black Anodised Case.

Probably available in the next 2-3 months, or as fast as I can build them.

For details of the Q68 see viewtopic.php?t=2082

The cost of the next batch about the same, depending on the cost of the case.


Regards, Derek
