Please vote for your winner of the Best commercial keyboard 2015.

By voting in the third round of this category you can win a store credit of £100 from the Keyboard Company!

This is the final round. See the first round and second round for reference.

The final round ends on Monday 14 December, 20:00hrs UTC. You can change your vote until the end of the round. The winner and full results will be released soon after the vote closes. EDIT: The winner has been announced here.

The official nominees are:

JUSTSYSTEMS x REALFORCE 108UW-HiPro
JUSTSYSTEMS (frequent collaborators with Topre) released this new HiPro keyboard. Similar to the Korean 104UK HiPro model, this is the first HiPro board with the delicious Topre red 'Esc' key.

Topre’s high profile (Hi-Pro) spherical keycaps are noted for their reduced hand travel away from the home row and their cupped keycaps reduce the chance of finger slips.

KBParadise V80MTS/V80FD
The KBP V80 MTS and the KBP V80 FD are tenkeyless (TKL) computer keyboards from KBParadise that use Matias switches and white Fukka (or, later renamed, to Fuhua) switches.

Quite sure.

http://deskthority.net/resources/image/25632 goes to a message saying the selected attachment does not exist any more.

Weird, changed image location, try again. Edit: Oh I see what the problem is, one moment, it's also in some other polls.

Oh, this is such a hard poll to choose for. I don't know if I can pick one! They're all so great in their own ways.

Nothing would make me happier than if those JustSystems HiPro caps were sold as a standalone set.
