yup...some people are juz considerable.
cuz the seller fren got it for free as prize so he's selling it cheap.
normal ppl will juz sell at retail price even tho it's free.

how do i know whether the DK9008 is G2 or not? the NKRO is actually only just 6-7 buttons right? ducky doesn't have full NKRO support right?

Is there a USB NKRO version? don't really fancy PS/2

ummm no. AFAIK, 9008G2 has USB NKRO and 9008S/other 1008/1087 model has full NKRO under PS/2 connector.
If you're looking for boards with NKRO under USB, PLU G3000 is quite a good choice actually.

All ducky G2 board is USB + ps/2 NKRO(mean all keys, not 6/7 as you heard/thought).
Non G2 model(including ducky shine) is USB 6KRO and ps/2 NKRO.

I buy my ducky 9008 s freom taiwan, can I get the ducky wristrest?

Attached thumbnail(s)

I tot spacebar for 6gv2 is a little on a short from that one? hmm
I think I can fit those keycaps on my Leopold

I guess you can't get them from local as it is from different distributor.

You should probably ask the your seller if any details.

Added on February 17, 2012, 8:36 pmNope, the length is standard like most modern board. Though, the stem inside is having different spacing, thus mean normal aftermart spacebar can't fit in without some modification.

Also, the spacebar probably can't fit your Leopold too.

Added on February 17, 2012, 8:39 pmYup, the following keys won't fit in:
"|\", "Enter", "Right Shift" and "Spacebar"

So far anyone's Ducky came with the wristrest yet?

orly??? damn... but other also cannot la??? aiyoyoyoyo

i bought my wrist rest with the my ducky mech keyboard.

honestly after many months using it, i think it does make a difference.

it feels so much more comfortable typing using a wrist rest during long hours.



Of course people with a tight budget probably want to skip it and just focus on spending on the mech keyboard. But if your a serious typist and want to do your hands a favor, get a decent wrist rest.

I've used the ducky wrist rest for many months, and i really like it. For me it's comfortable typing.

I don't really get what you mean.

Actually, what I want to say is that there are mainly 2 types(of course there are many other variations but less popular or even encountered, thus I don't mention them to prevent further confusion). Both types(spacebar) I gonna mention are having similar length as what you normal see on Steelseries 7G/6GV2, Filco and Ducky, which had a length of 6.25X modifier.

The one you found on FILCO, Ducky, the translucent KBC keycap posted above and other KBC keycap(ABS & PBT) are having same standard and position of the "X" stems, thus making them interchangeable.

Another standard is what you found on Leopold, Steelseries, Keycool and some other China branded board, the position of "X" stems are nearer to the center, thus making the type above can't fit in.

Added on February 18, 2012, 12:08 amThe current discussion is that Ducky Shine is going to come with it's own wrist rest(heard is SS7G alike, not sure how alike though...). Just that it haven arrive and no people had any pictures/details of it yet.

the pbt key caps found in taobao have many different names description in Chinese:
无刻 (unprinted? or should it be un-carved?)
侧刻 (side print? or should it be side carved?)
浸染 (dye? sublime dye?)
同刻 (same color carved? I think it is laser carved, but not fill with color?)
有刻 (carved??? what is this? only carved?
does it filled with color later? or is it printed?)
and such,

http://item.beta.taobao.com/item.htm?id=10093101518

I placed an order rainbow keycaps (6g/7g), and got it recently, I am quite happy with it.

The keycaps has words on it, but it is not carved in to it, nor like the original SS 7g's abs keycaps which are slightly bump up in the wording, I am not sure which one are mine, can any one give a clue?

1. Blank(mean nothing is printed), AKA otaku by FILCO's context
2. Side printed, AKA ninja by FILCO's context
3. Probably mean dyed/colored keycaps. Thats a way to achieve the "rainbow" keycaps you often found in taobao(I guess lots Chinese in China having rainbow fetish, LOL...)
4. Black print on black or white print on white. You can see it from global.PChome ducky's keycaps.
5. This one not sure, probably engraved and infilled, not really sure as it's meaning is quite wide. After see the pictures given, I guess it is lasered.

If it isn't this type:

then I guess it will be 4.同刻 or 5.有刻

I think the picture you show is 4.同刻, since it is carved, but the color stay the same.....


My keycaps look like this one (the one with white space bar), but i m not sure which type it is......
its not carved, it has characters, but not infilled like the abs of SS 7g......

the ducky shining wristrest is only available in Malaysia at the moment,

and the expected shipping date of the wrist rest has been postponed.

sorry guys, but will keep you all posted

Awww, was looking forward to it.

Only in Malaysia? Was it the idea of the Distro or Ducky Channel itself to release the wristrest together with the Shine?

guys roughly how much does a key cap puller cost and where can I get them? I don't like the one that comes with the ducky
