Question: If we make MX keycap easily available in Msia. What color or material would you like to see available? What price for a set of 104 keys?
*
Of course the cheaper the better lah, LOL... JK.

According to international and regional price, I will say the reasonable or potential price to be around RM80+ for normal ABS(colored, not black/white) or even higher for PBT.

Take a look at Inpad/Armygroup and you will get it.

Why not try get those 37keys small sets first,
(they are available in different color and printing method,
like side print, top print and no print.)
see how is the response of the market.

then maybe bring in bigger sets like 87 or 104 in back to back orders basis,
when the response is really good, there will be other competitors come after you.

and we the consumers will be happy to see that! tongue.gif
*
Or even safer, bring in WASD+Esc+Arrow keys first. "Gamers" will like to hear that.

It may be a good time if you want to get a China board.

If you had enough money and don't mind that it is pricy + can accept the BigAss enter(with small backspace), then by all mean go ahead.

If you want purer mechanical kb experience, try Filco or Ducky. Though they are around the same, all acceptable.

Erm, you want a black or white case keyboard?

You can always go either one and purchase keycaps of another color.

For example, go for rosewill ivory(white) color and then purchase black PBT dyesub keycaps from kaiserreich.

If want white backlit then this one probably. A board which you add the LED by yourself. Of course you can always go for a easier option, Ducky Shine.

Factory makes them in a complete set of 104 keys. Whatever extra you guys can keep them or throw them away. Factory will not "layan" small orders sweat.gif. Not even sure if they will layan 300 sets. It may need to be 300 sets of each color.

Options:

PBT/Dye sublimated
PBT/Lasered
ABS/Lasered

Color:

-White
-Gray
-Red

Some advice would be appreciated.


Added on September 30, 2012, 2:07 pm
White on White will be very subtle and probably also difficult to see at night due to lack of contrast. Working on getting white backlight keyboards in. OEM by same factory as Razer. But it's not in a classic form factor albeit more "gaming-like" sad.gif
*
PBT/Dyesub might need some extra "marketing" to justify its higher price in nature.

E.g: "Why settle for cheap plastic while you deserve a better one?" tongue.gif
"Tired of worn or fading fonts on your keyboard? Not anymore with dye-sub keycaps"

Ducky Shine is the one if you only limit to local choice and exclude custom mod.

it wasn't about the characters, but the way it is presented. Like Kbt Eye of Odin last time, they print a whole anime girl character onto the keyboard, backlit some more iirc.

Btw, lets end with all those AV talks. Later mod come we all get ban hammah...

Weird right n left modifier size? Mind to explain? Lol
*
Normal boards using standard 1.25x sized modifiers keys(Ctrl, Alt, Win & Menu) for both left and right side.
That mean 7 of the modifiers keys(from left to right) will result a total 8.75x, which the remaining 6.25(15 - 8.75) is the size for standard spacebar.

For razer and most iOne OEM boards case, they are following an older(still exist and being used but less popular nowadays) standard. 1.5x sized keys for Ctrl and Alt and 1x sized for Window and menu. That will some up to a total of 9, where as the remaining 6 is the size for the spacebar.

Of course there are also many others weird standard out there. Corsair K60/90 is a good example.

p.s i found tat mx-red not really good for double tapping but for quick lightning pressing it does really excell on it..

Mx brown should do better than blue in double tapping(especially fast pace).

Blue switch's tactile, registering and clicking point are hard to synchronize when double tapping at fast pace.

MX brown don't have such concern.

Lets start with the beginning, first, China fags tried to lower down the price of mechanical kb, by trying to imitate or imitate cherry mx switch, thus borned those Kalih switch(you can search for them, its mandarin name is "Kai Hua"").

The first board which use such switch is Rapoo V7, a not bag kb infact(except low KRO). Come with hardware level programmable, I even once planned to get one and swap the switch into Cherry MX.

After that, Genius rebrand the board(do some minor mod on the outlook) and come out with their Genius M1. After that, many more "gaming brands" in China also rebrand and facelift the board. Every facelift still maintain its no upper case characteristic.

Those switch actually even got tactile/linear/stiff/soft variant, just like Cherry MX. Just that its durability and quality can hardly get near Cherry MX.

How about "sale tax" or "luxury tax"? I heard that kastam can simply charge anything over RM300(100USD) worth of value. But I doubt any of them are able to identify Topre HHKB had triple of the value if without invoice.
