A large amount of Nape Pro suddenly came in a cosmetic box.
The number…I think there are 9 units.
The color is black and black trackball.
Like the recent Keychron packaging, the molded reflective type letter logo is beautiful.
KawamuraIf you look closely, the letters “Japan” look a bit unprinted…maybe because it is a prototype.
It is hot that Gizmode Japan and Mr. Amito are firmly printed in “Produce”.
The package contents probably look like this.
Contents
- Nape Pro main unit
- Wired cable (braided type, Type-C to C with Type-A adapter included)
- 2.4GHz USB dongle
- Something next to the dongle.
- handling instructions
The cable appears to have thinner wires than the double-sleeved geek cables released by Keychron.
After all, if they are even packaged, it’s time to go!
The second Nape Pro crowdfunding campaign is currently being held on CoSTORY, and the site maintenance was performed yesterday, and it appears that two Nape Pro units can now be purchased at the same time.
