BINGO!

Anyone else still waiting for caps from last batch in EU? I'm from Belgium waiting for almost 2 weeks :(

Shipping from US can take that long sometimes. I use the 2 week minimum rule for here in the UK.

US? 7bit ships from Germany...

LOL! My bad, of course :) Was online ordering other things ...

Muirium, did you throw it into the surprise box?


BTW:

Oh UK :p (pics look nice)

Oh OK (unless there's sarcasm in there) then that's much better than I expected!

Been out for a while....what's the latest update with the first Honeywell round of round5? Seems like SP delaying production again?

Just came back to see where we are at with the round 5 after a couple of months under the radar....<drool> mother of god, hyperB.... </drool>

wow, very jealous. Lovely.

Thank you for the advice, seems like Yodobashi are a bit more expensive than Amazon.jp. I'll see if he can get a better price in any of the other stores on that list.

I'll see what I can do Cookie. What sets were you looking at...the standard lettered ones? If I'm getting a set myself then may ...

Anywhere else other than Yodobashi I can shortlist in an email to him?

What part of Japan is he at?

I'm not sure, I can find out from him on Skype as soon as possible!

Hi all,

my father has gone over to Japan for 5 days. Would he be able to find HHKB's in any stores or are they rare out there and probably only online?

Hi all,
here is my most recent build. Decided I needed a new work board. I didn't go stock this time. Put pieces together that I acquired over the recent months. This board really feels great to type on. My new favourite!

Started out with a stock MX Blue Ducky Shine 3 YYY ...

Oh UK import duties.... Fml

Could you add a function kit with inversed color. That would be nicer if we use them in column.
find more supporters :)


F5 to F8 should be enough and not too expensive.

Am i the only one to like a uniform function row ???

I also like uniform function row! You are not alone. Though it's ...

^^^ Is the WASD white or the colour to match the rest of the alphas here? Good selection...rapidly realising that I am going to have to live off of baked beans alone for a few weeks to afford my order! xD

what about pure white instead :) with red or blue legends?

I like the WASD suggestion. I think many would use a set. The classic red background maybe a good idea. I don't know if pure white would make the off white alphas just look like they're dirty and the WASD might not look like it's meant to ...

Likewise, a nice model M -ish PBT dyesub set would be very stylish ^^ no weird and wonderful colours for mr bland right here!

OK, I understand now. I think putting the short shift in the pro kit then makes it compulsory for all ISO users, we already have to but extra languages just to get our language of preference. Therefore agree with putting the short shift in with the mods or something?

There is no point having just the ISO enter by itself, anyone who buys that will need the other ISO keys, like the short shift, too. I don't think it's good to have to buy a whole international kit plus a whole pro kit plus the ISO enter just to get an ISO language :/

imbattable wrote:What appeals to me is the simplicity of the set so far, so I would say no.

If you want to do it, you should take a cold yellow I think, to match the color scheme.

I agree with the simplicity of the set idea

imbattable wrote:I'd rather say remove the blank ISO enter - there are other blank sets, but not many ISO dyesub sets.

agreed

Phew, that's a relief. I've seen it mentioned on maybe two->three posts in the recent weeks. Nothing to worry about then!

Is it true that cheery have stopped making clears!? How will we all make our future ergo clears :'(

The FN icon looks great.

Can SP or anyone make a center stemmed stepped caps? I'd really like one

I like the f(x) idea
