How does typing for long periods on Mx Black feels like? I've been playing with the keypad and find Black to be rather interesting, can anyone comment?
Blue still better than the Black for typing imo. I used the 7G for over a year and it was ok, I find it pretty good at that time. But once I got my BWU, I can say black switches are just terrible for typing.
uum. Just checking with you guys, is Zowie Gear Celeritas worth getting? I'm gonna source it from Amazon.com
I just ordered mine a few days ago. But it wont arrive for me here until early May. If you can wait, I can give you my thoughts. Stupid Australian reseller dont keep stock of them. !@#!#%$@#$
Nice. Just got an email from the online shop I ordered from that the Celeritas in stock now. Gonna send mine out soon. Woot! Unboxing coming soon. lulz.
Currently typing on the Zowie Celeritas and I must say. This is one underwhelming keyboard. It doesnt have the normal legs that props up the keyboard to a better angle which I always use. Not to mention it has a ridiculously small "shift" key on the right. But the switches seems pretty good. Gonna use this for a while and see how it stacks up with the Blue, Red and Black.
Unboxing.

Man. I seriously hate this Celeritas. Very underwhelming keyboard. The layout is terrible. The ? and | keys are next to each other. Like who does that? Not to mention the shape is rather funny. First keyboard I regret getting. Grr.
LOL on the layout problem. How about the specs/functions part? Like Ctrl and CapLk swap and increase the speed(not sure what speed it mean).
Windows and CTRL swap works. But it doesnt really benefit me in anyway. Since I use a Mac and I actually need the windows key for all of my shortcuts since the CMD for Macs are remaped to the Windows keys for normal keyboarads. Cant really try the RTR (speed thing) since it requires PS2 and I dont have PS2 on my iMac.
If you want to get a Mechanical Keyboard look for others, there are plenty out there. If you want it because Razer has teh bling blings, then by all means, that will make you a very happy person. Can you return it then? The small right shift and the non-ANSI placement of the \| key was a deal breaker for the Ducky I got. Sold it after 3 days instead of returning it since it was from Taiwan.
I think I'll keep it. Its not too bad after a while. This just wont be my main keyboard thats for sure. Gonna use it for a week or two and then back to the BWU.
