I'm currently using one of Druin's boards.
Does your new design have any advantages over Druin's design?

My board has jumpers that allow you to adjust the keyboard sensitivity. This allows you tweak the rotational responsiveness. If the setting is too sensitive than you might get missed clicks, if it is too low than there might be control lag. There are 7 settings to get the right balance.
I've never used Druin's interface so I'm not sure exactly what the other differences might be.
My interface has a small 2"X2" footprint. It uses easy screw-less side and top mounting wire connectors. The ribbon contacts are gold. It has an 8 MHz processor. I've also put a lot of work into the software.
Still if Druin's interface is working for you than I don't think it would be worth switching.
I'm only making this 1 batch of boards because a few members asked for them. Unfortunately, because of the low demand the price is going to be $33 each. I was shooting for $25, but the quantity wasn't there and I wanted to use the best parts. I thought that I could just etch and drill all the board myself, but I quickly realized I didn't have the time and I had to send them out.
