Having spent a little time playing with the BeanBoard prototype, I have now produced a new version to fix most of the the things that were bothering me. Although I was toying with the idea of shrinking the board as small as possible, using tactile switches, in the end I couldn't resist a mechanical keyboard. The layout is a bit quirky, but I like it.

The PCB is more compact than the prototype and I also added a bus connector for further expansion.
