only thing I would suggest you is to group the F-keys in 4-key arrays for touch typing (reducing backspace/esc size)

nice updates!

just to sum up

— hey guys, I'm going to order a couple of HHKBs, do you have them?
— SURE! Go ahead!
— Great! Here, take my money
[2 seconds later]
— oops sorry we don't have them
— [sad panda]... when then?
— few days
— okay I'll wait
[3 months later]
— I'd like my money back
— ooookay

let's go back to overpriced ebay sales

they look like good kids, just a bit unprofessional

yeah if you didn't get a reply, it's time for a dispute.

did you get the keyboard @adhoc?

I talked to Melissa and we agreed to keep Retro to SA, so we are doing something new.

As far as I understand they plan a July/August release

that's for checking that for "us" Luca! I was pretty sure of that

BTW, there have been a short discussion somewhere of the possibility of combining DSS and SA profiles, using a different profile for different rows. I dunno if that is feasible or if the features and finishes would be too different. that would be interesting :D DSS comes only in matte top, semi-mat...

consider that the bottom row is R4 in the picture but should be actually R3 (R1, R1, R2, R3, R4, R3)

So they needed over a year from the announcement to the first actual pictures?

no, they needed over a year (actually possibly 2) from the first prototype (above) to final product.

I agree R4 is really steep, I'd like to try it in person.

Isn't it taller than DCS and Cherry profile? Those get side-printed all the time.
I think also the side-printing will be more visible on this than on SA because it is more angled.

yeah it can be done technically, just I want the side legends to be visible, but good point on the angle

So Signature Plastics announced the come back of the DSS profile more than a year ago, it seems it will be finally out in the coming months. I've never seen it in person, below some photos posted I've found on the interweb IMGP5399.JPG IMGP5392.JPG IMGP5391.JPG L4Ealug.png It's basically a low profi...

Laptop makers need to start using the cherry lp switches...

unfortunately they are hardly low profile because of the cherry mx compatibility stem.

Great report! if you host even just one picture here on DT I can feature your post in homepage.

IMO great buys for the money are linearised black Alps or clicky (pine) white ones. Both should be well-doable for under $100.

thanks for the heads up, I'll check those out

I have a full set of Granite on Alps that I would love to put on use, but I simply can't find decent switches (and I don't want to scavenge overpriced vintage keyboards). I tried the clicky Matias from few years ago and they are rather uninspired. Is it the same old design or did they change it?

there are a few "objective" parameters. like linear switches with a high actuation point are generally better for gaming. not always true as many gamers still prefer browns, but still. clicky is good if you need an audible feedback, it might be useful in some applications like data entry. very light...

jeez, it sounds like typing on rocks

what kind of layout are you after.

The NIZ Atom66 comes with a wireless version too.

I've featured your post in homepage, nice job on your refurb!

option 1: request a refund, tell them you will open a dispute if they don't give your money back or ship the keyboards right away option 2: ask for a fixed date and tell them you'll open a dispute if the keyboards are not shipped by that date Honestly they should have suggested a refund as soon as t...

an export function wouldn't be terribly difficult to do, but still I'm already stretched, if anyone wants to help...

I hear you. this piece of software doesn't have the functionality built in and requires a plugin. Unfortunately plugins are often abandoned and never updated. Also I need to check them regularly to see if they have been updated and if so perform all the steps required for the update... and I wish I ...

wouldn't it amazing if you added a text excerpt for your video for those who can't watch it right away?!

you'll be the first to know when we'll have the molds!

We'll soon probably launch a new Granite in a different profile. It will still be flat, but taller than DSA. I'm reviewing all the kits and I was wondering if you'd like any updates on the Ergodox kit 12-ergodoxian.png For the new comers, this is a PBT dye-sub'd set, so we are pretty free to do what...

the point is that comparable cheaper products by other brands don't have that problem. I have seen a similar comparison between the top macbook pro and an asus ultrabook. Now I'm sure it's not a problem of just Apple (you mentioned thinkpad) but hell, when an Asus does better engineering than apple ...
