That said, it is also just as important to remember that just because you think your product is great, doesn't mean everyone else will think the same. This seems to come up on The Amp Hour pretty frequently. Whether it was Bunnie or Gerry Roston or others, they all emphasized the importance of really understanding what the customer (or the world) needs before jumping into product design.

This product is more niche than mainstream I can assure everyone of that.
Not everyone will want this, but I want it, and often that is were the best product ideas come from.

That's fair. That's usually why I design something, too: Because I want it! And if no one else does, well that's okay.

We'll just have to wait and see.

That's the plan.

Do you also plan to make a custom silicone rubber keypad?

Over the years I have collected a lot of information about companies here in Taiwan that made Rubber Keypads, LCD Displays, E-Ink (it was bought by a Taiwanese company), Silicon molding, Metal stamping, and EMS services. But I have never asked them for any quote, because there is no way I can order 1k to 10k pcs of anything.

Last month I meet with one company that does everything: PCB, PCBA, Plastic Injection, and Packaging. They provide what they call turnkey products. And I was able to see that they were OEM of a known german manufacturer (I saw the case with the logo).

If you are interesed I can sort some information and sent to you. You can ask them directly for quote and I will be glad if you can share some insights with us after your product development.
