FILCO releases high-profile doubleshot keycaps

[7bit]

Ah, then it is that very, very dark brown which looks almost black.



The one at the bottom with the unreadable text on it.

[vardhana]

Yes.



Japanese description in the lower right says;

A view from back side.
legends:beige keycap:special dark brown

[matt3o]

I want it because the brown is "special"!

[Game Theory]

I am sure they are made by SP but is this a Shif t?

It is Shift but SHIF T.

Damn SP has moved up in the world today. In fact Filco now becomes the number one CherryMX keyboard in which you don't need to buy any more key-caps for.

Nice one Filco.

I received a 104 set today.
6.25x spacebar has 6 mounts!!! It is SP's Universal Spacebar, is'nt it?

[tlt]

Interesting could you share some photos?

[vardhana]

I'm taking some photos for here (and my blog).
I'll update soon

FILCO says stabilizer clips are glued

I don't have any other keycaps, so i can't upload more comparison photos. sorry.

[Ekaros]

Now I only wish for correct layout to come ;D

[Belfong]

Hi varhadna, did you order direct from Diatec via a proxy?

[vardhana]

I'm in Japan!!!



Sorry dirty photos

[rindorbrot]

Lol is that the SA space bar mold we all paid for in round 4?

[Muirium]

Discount Filcos for all with Round 4 caps!

[phetto]

Very nice. Hoping they can do this in ISO and my keyboard hunt is finally over....

[Grond]

First a bluetooth keyboard, now spherical doubleshots... nice work Filco!

[Muirium]

Well… First a compromised compact keyboard, then a bluetooth version, and now spherical doubleshots that won't fit on it... but I'm sure there's more to come, so still nice work Filco!

What's everyone else done the last six months?

[matt3o]

a bluetooth keyboard with a layout nobody wants... it is worse than no bluetooth keyboard at all

[Muirium]

Apparently the Minila is selling pretty well. I don't like it either, but if Filco puts the same capabilities into the Majestouch 3 TKL, now we're talking. Definitely progress. We're just seeing it piece by piece.

Funny 2.75x key (R-Shift)

[tlt]

What's funny about it?

[vardhana]

This space...

Please buy yourself a new camera and make a sharp photo!


I've seen those things before, BTW.

[vardhana]

Sony Tablet S camera is bad...
I have a Galaxy Note. Its camera is good

FILCO says stabilizer clips are glued

Probably because they were a bit loose like some SP caps are on those stabilizers.

They went on to release the Minila Air. If the wired Minila was a disaster, Filco could have put the Bluetooth bits into a new Majestouch instead (like they already did with the weird Japan-only edition). So they're betting pretty big with the Minila. And its price is pretty good for a Filco too. I'd be surprised if it wasn't doing quite well.

this is pretty clever actually. it is done so you don't have to make a mold for the 2.75u stems but you reuse the mold of another you already have (2u presumably).

Let's hope in a Minila 2 then.

[HaaTa]

Those keycaps look very similar to these...






Likely they found some molds methinks.
