You could try ask Diatec directly. It's a Japanese company.

And this is their distributor page

I also wondered as much so i popped down an email to Diatec if they would do something like a 1 off 10 person MO. No reply so far

if you buy in 10units, i very assure you'll be redirect to their dealer in taiwan or Hongkong.
btw, i'm quite confidence to confirm that nkro with brown key would appear in MY MSRP RM400+/-

here, some picture of my mech keyboard taken with my bro's camera, sorry for all the dust. >_<

use cyberclean to clean the dust is the best way..i always use for my 7g..it polish my 7g ulti shiny

k, will definitely try that. LOL

Problem with stuff like cyberclean is that it doesn't clean those dirts trapped underneath the keys. Eventually we'll need to find a way to clean those dirts. I would prefer not to take out inidividual keys and clean it.

Any ideas?

it can clean most of it..since it flexible..after you push it on the keyboard..all ur keys shape will on the cyberclean..quite effective..if wan clean by take out all the keycap to clean those dirt inside the key cap i think this can do every half year also nvm

Cleaning with cyberclean is fine. But overtime ur keyboard will be very sticky. The best way to clean ur keyboard is directly dissemble everything and clean it. I've yet to own a mechanical keyboard so i'm not sure how hard is it to dissemble everything vs rubber dome keyboards.

For me rubber dome is too easy to dissemble.

Beautiful

How much they cost?

Beautiful keyboard. Hm blueish leds hm :}

Compressed cans of air isn't environmentally good, also can be dangerous if used incorrectly.

I think something like a mini blower like this is more economical although not as strong as cans of compressed air.

Okay
It's a confirm that Filco will ashore Malaysia in around 2 weeks time
stay tune for incoming filco review soon

How many did you order ? How much


By the way Ztec from Vrzone forum was kind enough to take some high quality pictures comparing the Filco Majestouch and the Ducky 9008 keyboards.



Notice how the Filco plastic frame looks much thicker. This is one thing i feel that the Filco is much better as looks more sturdier, and impressive.



The top is the Ducky, the bottom is the Filco. Also in the screenshot is a Filco palm rest which fits the entire length of the keyboard.




Filco 87 (tenkeyless) keys with Blue cherry switches is the top one in this screenshot.




All 3 keyboards in one picture

Why is compressed air dangerous?

If you inhale compressed air from the can in an unventilated room it is harmful to you. Someone even claim you could die. Not sure if they were exaggerating.

Can lasts for a couple of months until you need to buy another. So the costs keep adding since you need to replace.

turning it upside down isn't a good idea. Need to aim upward

Anyway this is what i read from online So it's worth double checking this on google just to be sure how to handle compressed cans of air.


PS: i got back a reply from Diatec. They confirmed that they don't have any Malaysian distributors, however they are willing to ship directly to Malaysia if you order from them directly. I'm trying to figure out how many units they will sell, how much per unit, and shipping costs involved.

Shipping costs borne by the buyer obviously. The currency to pay is in Yen denomination. They don't do bulk (still clarifying on this).

how many? enough to cover malaysia's demand of course.

You would find their price at local stores like Czone, Viewnet, etc or some online reseller soon

The top one is Filco Tenkeyless Otaku.

Filco mail me and they say they will have tenkeyless Brown in stock end of this year.

Aiming for that.

One thing I like about Ducky is the Black on Black keys, they look really really good.

Meanwhile, Filco only has standard White alphabets or totally blank keys.

Added on October 28, 2010, 11:02 pmYou're bringing Filco to major retailers in Malaysia? Really?!

nope..ts is bringing buyer to the sg distributor
i don think malaysia retailer will start selling mechanical keyboard in this moment since mechanical keyboard is not popularized in malaysia

Added on October 28, 2010, 11:15 pmbut the filco palm rest really bit too expensive..but the palm rest not only can use for typing..i think can use when i do other stuff on my working desk also..should be comfortable

Actually buying from Diatec directly may be cheaper. So i am still pending a price quote from them


Filco Tenkeyless Otaku is nice. but for me i need those numpad keys mostly for gaming. Also i have experience that typing numbers with those keys is much more convenient.

This post has been edited by Moogle Stiltzkin: Oct 28 2010, 11:29 PM

ya numpad is important..the tenkeyless otaku is good because make your desk look neater with out big sized keyboard..the filco palm rest really poisoning la..if moogle is ordering anything from filco plz let me know whether can import the palm rest for me together or not
