kone got pushed back?

Psypher5 · 30 Sep 2008 at 16:44

to the 3rd?

Any of you mods know whats happening with this? Ive read the 15th on most sites..

submitted a webnote but just wondering if anyone knows anything / anyone waiting for one?

Been waiting on this and their keyboard for ages now. I wouldn't be surprised if the release date is nearer the middle of October.

I've been waiting on the Kone since I first saw it last year. Let's just hope it's worth the wait

Psypher5 · 2 Oct 2008 at 21:04

anyone know if the eta is still tomorrow?

AntiHeroUK · 2 Oct 2008 at 23:31

It still says so on the store so let's hope so

UniqueID · 2 Oct 2008 at 23:38

omg i got a lachesis and now you show me this incredible lookin mouse, gotta resist temptation..

AntiHeroUK · 2 Oct 2008 at 23:43

If you just bought the lachesis then don't bother buying this unless it is deemed the most accurate mouse ever.

I wait for a few reviews frist before replacing my trusty MX518

AntiHeroUK · 2 Oct 2008 at 23:57

Yeah the MX518 is still an excellent mouse, but I never really managed to get used to the shape of it. I've been using my MX Revolution again and I must say it's probably the most comfortable mouse I have come across. Let's hope the Kone blows everything away!

Bah, not going to get it now until Monday. Unless you paid Saturday delivery.

Psypher5 · 3 Oct 2008 at 00:28

mondays ok for me, im out all weekend.

Ace Modder · 3 Oct 2008 at 08:45

I have been working with our supplier, who has been waiting for the stock to land from Germany. Hopefully be today the goods are with me. As soon as I can get hold of the supplier this morning I will let you all know!

Ace Modder · 3 Oct 2008 at 08:56

Just contacted the supplier for an answer.

I'm afraid there is some bad news.

The stock did not arrived with them, they are now expecting it on Monday, maybe even Tuesday. Sorry for the dissapointment

For the OP - the reason that other sites state the 15th, is due to the fact I have managed to secure all the initial stock into the UK.

I have also managed to sucure 75% of the 2nd UK shipment too.

Psypher5 · 3 Oct 2008 at 14:06

Hmmm, Good that you managed to bag the whole uk stock!

Im away all weekend so it makes little diff to me, and gives roccat time to push some vista 64 drivers out.

Keep chasing it up

Ace Modder · 6 Oct 2008 at 11:10

Hi all.

I can confirm that the Roccat Kone has arrived into the UK, and will be with us tomorrow.

So they should ship tomorrow, there is about 50% of the stock allocated to pre-orders so there will be stock available, but not massive amounts

Socaddict · 6 Oct 2008 at 11:35

just googled it.

looks just like some one playing catch up with the logitech G9, in all honesty.

And I <3 my G9.

Tetsu · 6 Oct 2008 at 11:37

Well its laser so it will be no good to me due to low mouse sens. But the shape looks nice.

shr3k · 6 Oct 2008 at 11:37

Looks ok, but im happy with my mouse

Psypher5 · 6 Oct 2008 at 11:45

yey new mouse sooon

wish roccat would push out some x64 drivers :/

Vista 64 Bit Driver

Question: When will there be a Vista 64 Bit driver for the Kone?

Answer: Although in the past weeks it has been unsure if we will have the Vista 64 Bit driver finished in time, we can now assure you that the driver will be up and running within the first few days after the release of the Kone.

From their website, so hopefully out soon.
