Hey, guys.

My Leopold Keyboard FC200R Tenkeyless will ship by DHL from Korea at Monday.
Hopefully It will went smoothly.

I've heard from their employee that they already preparing to expanding branch towards China and Hong Kong.(this might let us purchase Leopold Keyboards in future much more easily thru China)

And now, they are interested as well as setting a retail system in Malaysia, so Malaysians could purchase them once they arrived. Estimated 2011.

The Keyboard Price tag is still not yet confirmed. But According to XE Money Convert. South Korea Won Converted To Ringgit Malaysia. The Price is Around RM335. So you can expect the price to be around RM300.

I'm actually very looking forward for the Leopold Keyboard right now, because sixty and clickclack from geekhack did agree the keyboard has very good overall quality as well as thicker Keycaps. So i will be the 1st Malaysian to ever own a Leopold FC200R. I'll post Picture Comparison after i get the keyboard.

Just a few questions.


So 300 ish is for the 10keyless; then what about the 104 key leopold ? How much will that be.

And when you mentioned 300; did that already include shipping costs to Malaysia already ?

As for what i'm being told by them, this is their retail price, so from what i view at, if Leopold did set a retail system at malaysia, we should be purchasing the keyboard straight without any shipping cost.(just my own thinking and conclusion)

Btw, i just received the keyboard and currently using it, will post picture soon.

I do have to agree with clickclack and sixty, the key is indeed thicker. i was quite surprised with the thickness. Because i didn't realize the difference in thickness is so easily noticeable when put side by side comparison, i'll picture them soon with a ruler beside.

thickness of caps wont affect much of the typing,
but the noise generated from typing on mech keyboard.

Ya agree, if say they stated it as Malaysia retail price means that is the final price after reach into Malaysia.

I am not sure what you means by the thickness. Do you talk about the key caps profile? You can measure the thickness of key caps by using ruler? it cant be right.

So usually thinner key caps hit the keyboard base will created higher pitch sound.
Whereas the thicker key caps will create lower pitch sound which is not that noisy and annoying. (that why the thicker key caps have more advantages)

The loudness is not really depends on the thickness but the force you apply to hit the key caps. Just my 2 cent.

Cyberclean is more to clean dust.
I believe you usually clean your BW is because the glossy end key caps.
To clean those fingerprint, i think micro fiber cloth will better.

Maybe just use cyber clean to clean the dust first the use the cloth to clean the fingerprint.
Actually every time after use the cyber clean, all the key caps will become abit sticky, so wipe them properly is impertant, before some printing fade off.

it depends the thickness of the keys too.
same force same distance travel, different thickness, will result different pitch or tone.
slightly different.
doesn't border me at all.
key cap printing method is what i concern more about. double shot or dye sublime PBT are the one i always one.

Nice keyboard.

See i told you the Leopold came with double shot extra keys; whereas ducky just gives you colored wasd keys :/

Also that Leopold i believe only comes as lasered pbt keys. See how the picture shows the wording to be much cleaner and clearer than the Ducky.

lol, your flash effect is too obvious, should off the flash for some of it, blurred the picture.

Anyway, cant see the side. Cant see the thickness of the both the keyboard and the key caps profile.
But the extra key caps are nice. You extra order it or it was bundled with the keyboard itself?? (foc?)

I believe Leopold will only included one Orange Leopold Keycap Doubleshot where the other 4 doubleshot keycaps are not included.

But i will be meeting a Leopold Employee Tomorrow in Kuala Lumpur to have further discussion. If it's possible, i`ll try to bring in Leopold Leopold Keyboard to Malaysia. So you guys can get for a cheap price brows.gif

There's still alot need to be discuss with them. i'll try to post more information once after i have a discussion with Leopold.

Actually, This keyboard was a sample sent by Leopold from DHL, There's no way to purchase the keyboard for now because Leopold doesn't accept Paypal or Credit Card.

But i may try to bring this keyboard to Malaysia.

Yeah, sorry about the flash effect, The room that i taken picture is kinda dark, so it is required to have flash. And also because of my Crappy Photographing skill tongue.gif

I'll post a side by side comparison picture once i get back to home(Taiping) where my Steelseries 7G and Ducky DK9008 is.
