My ErgoDox arrived yesterday. The Dutch postal service, who did the custom declaration, categorized it as parts of not further defined musical instruments :lol:

Since the declaration reads "keyboard parts" (or at least it did for me), they might have thought that it makes more sense to be buying ...

Thanks TDub. Unfortunately I missed it (though I did try searching around a bit to see what else people have done, and couldn't see much, so I just made my own thread about it). I suppose looking for enough people who want to get a QWERTY DCS set might be difficult, since so few people actually have ...

All of the caps sold thus far at MassDrop for the ErgoDox have been blank keycaps. I, for one, really like homing bumps and rely on them a lot, and I also just don't like the look of blank keycaps. Less important but they make things difficult for other people to use my keyboard.

So, I'd like to ...

I'd like to get some labelled keycaps, but it does seem to be rather expensive. $70 at WASD plus shipping will get me a full regular 104 set which won't get me all the caps I need. Given the configurability of this keyboard, organizing a labelled group buy would be difficult, especially with DCS ...

Best way to learn is to do it. And now you have a reason to

I've now similarly tented mine on my copy of The Iliad & The Odyssey

Here you go :)

Now all I need is some rubber feet and some tenting!

Regarding the thumb cluster, I'm finding it a little bit easier if I angle the two halves a little bit more. Still not perfect, but very workable. Of your two pictures I prefer the second---it puts the innermost thumb key right under my thumb.

Regarding your patch: holy balls. This is genius. It ...

Mine arrived yesterday (I'm in Canada) and I'm typing on it now! To be frank I think I would have been fine with my CM Storm, but... well, what can I say, the ErgoDox is just too cool :) I'm finding myself ambivalent to non-staggered layouts; while they're theoretically better I have trouble doing ...

I like it when my OS interface is as obfuscated as that. I have KDE setup so that, with no windows open or with all of them minimized, there's nothing at all visible except the desktop backgrounds. You have to press a mouse button to get to the task list, clock, tray, and other widgets, that hover ...

Are there any (concrete) plans for a labelled keycap GB? I'll go in on the blank ones barring other options (and at the current price on MD it isn't too bad), but I'd prefer labels, at least for the standard keys :\

I'm just about to fall off the fence on the side of the MD GB.$226 ain't bad, all the better if it gets down to $200, and $6 for Canadian shipping is pretty nice too. I don't have any caps though, has anyone thought about getting a GB going for that?

Thinking of how to set it up for Emacs

Ez! If you get the keyboard, attach it to your computer, and replace Emacs with Vim, it will work flawlessly!

Brilliant!

Now that this thread has migrated over here, I'll re-iterate my interest. My ideal is to get two keyboards, one with blues, one with browns, for no more than $500 including all materials (keycaps, switches, resistors/caps/LEDs), though I can assemble them myself (including soldering, probably). I'd ...
