This keyboard truly is a space saver. These were supposed to be Cherry MLs, but they look to me like MXs. If they are, I am going to try to replace them with blues. Can anyone help me identify these switches? they say MEI or something on them.
The manufacturer claims full n-key rollover, and I have confirmed this with GeekHack’s n-key rollover test. The manual includes a full schematic for this keyboard- a nice touch.
The keyboard has a cover that can be purchased for $18.
The keys are the same the same 3/4 height and full width keys as the ones http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?t=288 here.
Overall, this keyboard feels stiff, but not stiff enough that it’s unusable. I miss an audible click of any sort, and I HATE the fact that they switched the caps lock and ctrl keys, it really threw off my shortcuts. The escape key is really weird, but not unusable. The 1 key above the tab key is elongated as it has a jumper under it, for switching between AT and XT signals, odd as this keyboard has a PS/2 connector.
This keyboard is very light and it includes cheap metal wire feet, something I didn’t expect on a keyboard that retails at $130. Not a bad keyboard, but I came from a Model M keyboard, and some of my observations may be unfounded.
UPDATE 1.-Fri Jun 12, 2009: Keyboard has been sanded down to blank the keycaps and the Escape key has been painted red-orange to match Realforce ‘boards. Once Broken in, the keys feel fine. I’m starting to like the lack of a click…
