Pierce keyboard

Pierce by crahamson is a semi-wireless open source keyboard.

The keyboard is based on Corne, but the author wanted more aggressive pinky stagger and 1u keys only.

Initially designed to use a ribbon cable. I got a bit annoyed by the bulky cable so I got the idea to make wireless modules to plug into the IDC sockets.

The design also features a ThinkPad R61 trackpoint module.
