The production and shipment of pre-orders are in process. So far we shipped about half of all pre-orders and will need October to ship all remaining orders. Afterwards we will have stock to ship upcoming orders immediately.
Nitrokey 3C NFC
We are busy working on the next production batch of Nitrokey 3C NFC and stick to the plan to ship it within this year.

Yes, you are right GrapheneOS generally should work. But in detail as far as I understand this depends on the chosen Webauthn-verification-type. So for instance webauthn.io requires a pin to be entered for (NFC) registration as it will create a RK, which requires a PIN (e.g., this won't work for me). On the other side webauthn.coffee.bin works perfectly fine with (NFC) (create credential, get assertion) as both do not require a PIN, just user presence.
Generally speaking I have to admit that I do not know if PIN entry during NFC usage is a thing anyways. From a usability perspective this would be extremely painful to hold your Nitrokey3 at the right spot, then input the PIN (while not moving the Nitrokey). So I would suspect that PIN entry is either way not supported via NFC/Webauthn, frankly I personally have never seen this and I am using NFC for logins regularly.
Anyways, this is getting very technical. Maybe the forums would be a better place to discuss this, together with the experience of other users, would you like to move it there?
