Focus FK-8000 and FK-9000 latching lock

[Daniel Beardsmore]

I realised recently, when posting photos of the Focus FK-9000 to the wiki (not my photos, or keyboard!), that the numeric keypad and calculator are toggled using a latching lock key. Sadly, the owner was in the process of selling it, and it was all packaged up before I realised that I needed one more photo!

I've since discovered that the FK-8000 is the same:

On the FK-8000 they appear to have used a weird Futaba variant with a staggered cross in the keycap mount, which is strange, considering that if they used an [wiki]Alps lock[/wiki] switch, it would fit their existing keycaps ...

Anyone able to take a better picture of a Focus latching lock switch that shows more clearly what it is? (I'd love proof that that one is a Futaba, but I wouldn't ask anyone to desolder a switch :)

Moreover, I don't know that they're all Futabas …

(I've finally got an e-mail through to an address at Focus, so maybe someone knows about the insane range of switches they used :-)
