These look incredible. Any plans for when they'll be available to the public?

Either the tempered glass or the acrylic will be offered as the an upgrade kit via SFFLAB.

The window kit is NOT compatible with side mounted fan bracket, therefore the 3.5" HDD cage will NOT work either.

However, there are so many emails about the window kit despite the trade offs, I just gave up and decided to make it official.

Makes sense. Even if it does limit some of the functionality of the case, between seeing users' own mods of tempered glass windows out in the wild and the demand for an official, first-party option, the desire for this option seems fairly prevalent.

Should sell pretty good--I've been making these in my shop for customers for a while now. Time to retire!

If you are going to keep the sysem simply, the new cover is worth using, but in a such a small case, and all the wires going everywhere, it's not going to be a pretty site, someone like me using a liquid cooling isn't going to benefit from this.

With careful cable management, this is a non issue - as with any case. I've seen full tower ATX builds with watercooling with absolutely horrendous cable management and a case window!
