Following on from the successful London Show, RISCOSbits are pleased to 
announce some minor updates to the website.

The very popular slate coasters have become a regular product and are now 
available to buy direct from the website: 
https://www.riscosbits.co.uk/coasters.htm. These fantastic slate coasters 
come in two designs depending on your preference for retro or modern RISC 
OS emblems, and are available as single items or as a set of four. Custom 
engraved with your favourite motif for permanent, long-lasting protection 
for your desk from the perils of coffee cup rings!

The custom USB keyboards that were on show and selling on the day have also 
become a 'product' albeit a limited edition one.  These backlit keyboards 
are equipped with Cherry MX keys and each key is customisable with a range 
of 16m colours of backlighting, fully programmable and compatible with RISC 
OS to make it easy to emulate your favourite Acorn-era function keys. Not 
only that, you can make up whatever weird and wonderful patterns you like! 
Whether you prefer the red keys and colour scheme of the Beeb, or the 
vibrant green of the A3010, just a few key presses and you're there. You 
may even want to match the keyboard with that Phoebe case project you're 
working on - whatever you choose, it's up to you.And it's locked in for 
next time you use keyboard too! Grab one now before they're all gone: 
https://www.riscosbits.co.uk/keyboard.htm

In addition to the standard website, we've updated the offers on the RISC 
OS Active Developers Scheme (ROADS) with some new development kits and 
other items. To join the scheme, go to the ROADS website: 
https://www.riscosbits.co.uk/roads/ to sign up, or if you've already 
joined, go to the ROADS offers page: 
http://www.riscosbits.co.uk/roads/pricelist/ and sign in to see the new kit 
and take advantage of your active developers' special deals.

And finally, after feedback from developers and users, there is now a 
submission form to let us know about your working or non-working NVMe 
drives, so we can add them to our compatibility list. That said, after the 
latest developments, we expect more far more submissions for working 
drives, but if there are any non-working ones, we can hopefully 'fix' the 
issue easier, so let us know. And also let us know about other features of 
your working driver, especially 4K sector sizes.

You can add your drive to the list by going to 
https://www.riscosbits.co.uk/nvme/SubmitDrive.htm

Huge thanks to Bryan and all at ROUGOL for organising a fantastic show. 
Same time next year?
