How do I unsubscribe from a thread? ie, I don't want to see this thread when I click (new).

alaricljs · « **Reply #51 on:** Fri, 04 January 2013, 16:18:34 »

There's a forum for that, but you click Notifications in the top menu bar and check the box to the far right of said thread listing, and then unnotify.

I tried that, however, nothing is in that menu. I've never subscribed to this thread, it only notifies me because I've posted in this thread, therefore I can't unsubscribe somehow.

You can check out any time you like,
but you can never leave

Detachable cables are nice, but also a (repairable) weak point. Make it detach like it does now, and connect the usb port to case, if done right, you could have it either way and without stressing the board. I believe Cooler Master does this.

USB hub, unpowered is only good for a mouse, maybe a media reader. Hubs can create issues as they draw power themseleves and would likely only be usb 1.1 or usb 2.0. A single USB 3.0 passthrough would be nice and convenient, but would require split cable. There is simply no way to do this cheap and cleanly, in my opinion.

You could do non-invasive media keys.

I would like to see better key/hole alignment, but the biggest thing is get rid of the pad printing. ABS, PBT, Double shot, whatever, you shouldn't get pad printing at this price.

I think it would be nice if they sold them without keycaps for a discount. Lots of people would be immediately replacing the stock caps with PBT, but i'm not sure how much of a niche market that would be.

PBT keycaps...

I wouldn't say it would be any more of a niche market than a Filco keyboard itself is.

Filco barebones owuld be pretty cool.

But WASD will fill that void pretty well i'm sure.

1. programable Controller (3 Layers)
2. detachable USB

in my personal wishlist for me: never buy a keyboard without a programable controller anymore....

tauburn · « **Reply #62 on:** Tue, 22 January 2013, 12:47:35 »

it would also be nice if they would put out a white keyboard that is actually white and not beige/off-white

I actually like their beige color keyboards better then a pure white but it is hard to find keycaps matching this color unfortunately.

What can be done with such a controller that can't be done by the OS?

you can do everything by the OS but with a controller you can take your settings with you if you happen to switch computer and also you are not relying on some external software that's running in the background.
some care some doesn't. I for one don't see much use to it, but if I'll decide in the future to switch my layout to something like dvorak, it might come in handy. though it isn't very likely.

Agreed, PBT stock caps would be nice at the MJ price point.

aznsilvrboy · « **Reply #67 on:** Tue, 22 January 2013, 20:28:56 »

Detachable USB cord, stock PBT keycaps option, backlight, media keys, extra USB ports.

vardhana · « **Reply #68 on:** Wed, 23 January 2013, 02:34:44 »

In Japan, Majestouch 2 Convertible is available.
Convertible has DIP switches, detachable USB cable.

I think Maje 3 must have these functions at least and more functions are needed to differentiate.

- Remapping before booting the OS (BIOS etc.)
- Full remapping capability without additional software (less bloat)
- Being able to remap keys that cant be remapped by simply using a different layout file (Ctrl, Alt, Win, Shift...)
