What about HHKB?

Bruce · « **Reply #421 on:** Wed, 25 January 2012, 13:35:09 »

Can't do a thing with HHKB. It's not CE approved so I break EU law if I sell one.

fossala · « **Reply #422 on:** Wed, 25 January 2012, 13:37:11 »

Wow, why is that (not CE approved).

Bruce · « **Reply #423 on:** Wed, 25 January 2012, 13:50:17 »

I'm as mystified as anyone.

Bruce · « **Reply #424 on:** Wed, 25 January 2012, 15:11:05 »

Just to clarify, they never submitted the product for approval to my knowledge.

CE, thats those stickers u used to see on cheap chinese toys right?
Like CE but the E would be a € with only one -

Now I see why EK gives no warranty to us.

Still, Id want to buy an ansi 55g...

Hi Amasokin
Sorry to leave you hanging so long. Truth is, we usually go with 87 for USA and 88 for European and so this gets me confused too. But they take off the windows menu key and it becomes something else.
Topre are very good because they can make a great number of variations and to relatively small MOQ - so there are so many possibilities. Ours don't have the embedded number pad (That was me, I don't really like them) or the LEDS, that was never thought about. And I doubt any were ever made.
We were shown the gold on black and liked it. It fitted also with wanting to get Topre into the more general office use arena, where sub printing is not well received. Thanks, and greetings to France.

No, i'm not thinking silent this year. Topre only whisper anyway and I still have some gaps to fill in the whisper range.

I'm not likely to have any new ISO models in the first half of 2012.

I hate variable weighted keyboards and I also like to play roguelikes and Arma games, so "tenkeyless" type keyboards are no option for me

Maybe on second half then...

Btw... How those keypads work with games? Does those work just like standard keyboards keypad or is there some drivers ect. software needed?

Bruce · « **Reply #427 on:** Thu, 26 January 2012, 06:36:30 »

Hi Naku
The keypad should operate just the same as if it were still attached to a keyboard. There is some added function but the basic function is still the same.

Naku · « **Reply #428 on:** Thu, 26 January 2012, 07:11:49 »

Any keypad suggestions for Topre tenkeyless? Your Topre keypads seems to be sold out

Bruce · « **Reply #429 on:** Fri, 27 January 2012, 09:15:25 »

Ah, I need to restock them. Will be a month or two, but I can't recomend anything else. Unless you fancy the Filco. In truth I think only a Topre can realistically sit next to a Topre.

fossala · « **Reply #430 on:** Fri, 27 January 2012, 09:20:32 »

Is it possible for you to get some topre keycaps in stock?

Bruce · « **Reply #431 on:** Fri, 27 January 2012, 09:30:17 »

I'm looking at WASD sets Yes, but I think it will only be one colour at first. What were you after?

fossala · « **Reply #432 on:** Fri, 27 January 2012, 09:32:51 »

I want esc keys, if possible fn and control keys as well.

Bruce · « **Reply #433 on:** Fri, 27 January 2012, 09:36:54 »

OK. I'm asking.

fossala · « **Reply #434 on:** Fri, 27 January 2012, 09:40:44 »

Thanks.

Hi Bruce,

I'd like to buy Realforce all 45g US ANSI layout.
Will you stock any 45g model with US ANSI layout in the near future?

Thanks,
krzaq

that is a good question!

Bruce · « **Reply #437 on:** Wed, 29 February 2012, 11:46:16 »

Yes, we have some USA on the way, on a slow boat.
I need to check exactly what is on there.

phillyosophy · « **Reply #438 on:** Thu, 01 March 2012, 07:45:39 »

Thanks for the info Bruce. It would be great if you could check for the dates/month that its arriving

Bruce · « **Reply #439 on:** Thu, 01 March 2012, 10:07:31 »

The All 45g model we have coming is the SE05D0
That's a Realforce 86 in Black.

krzaq · « **Reply #440 on:** Thu, 01 March 2012, 13:24:25 »

Great!

When are you expecting to have the shipment available at the store (days/ weeks/ months)?

Bruce · « **Reply #441 on:** Fri, 02 March 2012, 09:57:49 »

It will be 6 weeks on the ocean, add one for loading and unloading so i''d say end of April or 1st week of May.
All being well.

krzaq · « **Reply #442 on:** Fri, 02 March 2012, 10:22:11 »

thanks for checking

She doesn't float my boat....

Kaskas · « **Reply #445 on:** Wed, 25 April 2012, 19:12:56 »

Hello Bruce,

Can you give us an update on the shipment, has it arrived and what's coming? Also, when will they be available for order?

Looking forward to ordering a US Topre.

I'm not sure if it is the cheapest way, but both http://www.keyboardco.com and http://www.verkkokauppa.com/ are in Europe and reasonable. The Finnish site is a bit hard to navigate, but google translate helps.

therecorder · « **Reply #449 on:** Tue, 14 August 2012, 22:19:47 »

Why do the Topre USA boards cost 20 pounds more than the European layout boards?
