Uhmm. If you didnt mentioned, i never noticed also

what is the meaning of 80% keyboard

100% KB = fullsize KB

80% = Tenkeyless

That is ISO layout.
Looks like Scandinavian version

So ducky having ISO layout now? Wao, aim for europe market?
But I sure if they made a BL poker-sized keyboard with ISO layout, it will sell like hot cake.

Anyone know where can I get the different weight force springs in the Cherry Mx Switches?

I was thinking, even if I get the cherry G80-3800,
I wouldn't have the springs to mod the weight forces of the springs in the switches....
I saw this guy in Taobao selling switches, but if I buy the whole switches... that would be too pricy just to peel off the springs in it......

That's why you buy used(strip down) boards, they are cheap.
Maybe Rm50 for 100 switches.

from Taobao? or do you have any suggestion?

Search in taobao, 2nd hand corner with term "Cherry 轴"
quite easy search and lots option.

decided to go for Poker as my portable board...

want to order another full size keyboard for my cousin, PLUM seems quite attracting for that price tag.. any recommendation?

If you don't mind the look, Keycool and Cherry K2.0 should be good options too.
BTW, Poker almost extinct already. Better act fast or you will have to go for the KBT Pure next time... Almost the same but with some oddity in layout and also the BL LED mean no "mod as you want", you need to do soldering jobs if want any mod...

PLUM, you get what you pay for. Ask lucidlts, he has a ton of PLUMs

I'd prefer the Pure, for the better layout.
LED i think only comes with the Alu version, standard version don't have. I can't confirm this however/

AFAIHeard, normal version = BL. Aluminium version = BL + aluminium case.

mind explain what you mean by better layout?

It's a personal preference.
But the Fn key is where i want it to be, similar to the HHKB. Together with the keys on the the Fn layer
YMMV

just 1 PLUM, have 3 PLU previously but the brown switch sold to other guy now.
So far i think keycool is pretty good, got myself 1 last week. will post the pics when i got the mood

104 or 87?
if 87 do share with us if any keys offset problem as i mentioned b4 still exist?
Most severe and visible is the arrow keys and also "F,G" and "H,J" keys.
Also if have the S/N it will be better as some ppl claimed that theirs S/N over 800+ still first batch with the offset problem, meanwhile some ppl say that KC's S/N is not arranged accordingly but random, LOL...

LYN is a terrible place to be. Got poisoned by this topic and went ahead to order Ducky 9008 Shine brown switch red LED. Cant beleive I am spending this amount for a keyboard. Should arrive today thanks to CEX's incredibly fast service.
