Everest customizable keyboard reaches more than 1000 backers
Everest is a fully customizable, mechanical gaming keyboard. Despite a challenging time and hardships around the globe, Everest found tremendous success on Kickstarter, being funded by more than 1000 backers, and received high praise in a preview by Youtuber randomfrankp.
“The success Everest had on Kickstarter has been amazing and we appreciate the support from every backer,” says Tobias Brinkmann, Founder & CEO of Mountain. “It shows that our user-centric design and mission to bring unique features to consumers resonated well with the market. As soon as the campaign was over, we received countless inquiries asking when Everest would be available for pre-order. The demand didn’t show any signs of slowing down, and we look forward to serving all our customers when Everest is available for shipping.”
The brand store on mountain.gg accepts pre-orders for all Everest keyboard variants and offers additional accessories for keyboard enthusiasts, such as a handmade mountain keycap.
Since funding was secured for Everest, design and production steps are progressing. The product packaging has been finalized and a new firmware update for the media dock enables additional features such as clock, stopwatch and timer. The display dial also features easy access to profile switching, RGB lighting, PC info, and more.

Always awesome to see innovation esp. with keyboards but looks like a lot of focus on looks and things to play with and not a lot of practicality. You could achieve a lot of what it offers just as easily on the desktop without all the buttons etc. I'm more concerned with the feel of the switches and keys. Give me an overall high quality hot-swappable 60% keyboard lubed to perfection and I'm happy.

What is great about this - they will use hotswap sockets. And I personally do like the ability to change Numpad from the right side to the left.
