ya those are Topre keyboards, and they priced around 1k, plus shipping to Malaysia.

you need those Topre keycaps, that cost around RM300 to RM400 for it.

per my previous post mention, I do have a set for sell,
Do let me know if she is interested, the price will be lower than the one sold online.
Please note it is not a full 104 key set.

Generally, we tok about size, profile and height (and of course the right stem at the first place).

Size:
It is pretty standardised even the same as those normal fullsize non-mech kb out there. We call those single sized keys (like W, A, cursor keys and so on) 1X unit sized. Those modifier keys (alt, ctrl and so on) are normally (applied for mech kb, as non-mech kb usually had their own standard) 1.25X or some 1.5X. All other larger sized keys like tab, caps lock, enter, shift and so on also had their own predefined size.

Profile:
Normally for mech kb, we only care about DCS profile. At some rare case, some brands may be using uni-profile or some weird customised profile.

Height:
For the same DCS profile, different OEMs/brands also had their own height. But usually it won't be too much a issue as most of them are around the same. The lowest one in DCS profile should be Cherry (brand) keyboards which is around 2mm lower compared to most other OEMs.

Added on December 26, 2012, 12:40 amFor some reason, "300" scene suddenly popped out in my minds. And you bet...

It is the "THIS IS MADNESS"...

And the next is "This is forever alone!!!", ok, or may be not. LOTR's "My Precious" is more suitable.

anyone here getting the KBT PRO?? seems.. unique

It means 2 things:

1st, time for warranty
2nd, time for some custom mod

Owai, all those LED died in a go? And they are in a cluster? I suspect that there may be something wrong with the PCB or the circuit of it.

Added on December 26, 2012, 1:17 amActually I do planned such b4, but the price of Shine 2/YOD keep me away from it.

BTW, the LED is modded to different colors, not color changing LED right?

Found the answer, it simply is the effect of passing through colored keycaps.

Does she lurk around at LYN?

I find it kinda meh, since it doesn't come with a shiny case.
The acrylic case I got from litster feels not as good when you have the metal ones around.
Spent $150 ($100+$50 shipping) and all I got was PCB, a plate, and some accessories *first world problems*

Morning!

Anyone owned a MX Green based keyboard yet?

Well, have to sought own cases but WFD is working on one now afaik. Or you could go for filco custom cases which would probably fit as well (i think so?). The great thing about phantom is you are able to customize it(easily). Not to mention the amount of layouts available.

I thought of hopping onto the Phantom GB but I think it's way over my budget and I think I'll be bad at soldering and screw something up for sure. Lol.

spilling any liquid on a Filco is lethal. Good thing your board still works fine.

It is quite pricy but i dont think i will regret getting it.
Well, would have to starve for a month.
Im getting WFD to assemble it for me. Don't have the time and experience to do it myself.

So total everything up including shipping, how much are you going to spend? I know I won't regret it either, but my bank sure GG.

Estimated ~$250 assembled and shipped. But without casing and cable.
