Better for backlighting.  Although these might not be backlight friendly, making the molds thusly paves the way for backlight friendly at a future date.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

You are right. Here at GH are individuals more inclined to the practical side and see keyboards as input devices, but there are others more in the perfectionist side of aesthetics. Both live perfectly in peace here.  :)

Better for backlighting.  Although these might not be backlight friendly, making the molds thusly paves the way for backlight friendly at a future date.

Yeah I think so too.  That's too bad since I kinda like the font/placement on this one:

49934-0

49936-1

This is lasered on I believe.

they already made a set that backlit friendly  :cool:


Vortex can also do Cherry profile now, so maybe the next set would be even better, or hope so  ;D

Some people are obsessed with Cherry profile. I'm more so with OEM, I feel it's nicer on the hands and eyes.

Agreed. I'd rather have anything than an inconsistent board.

lol yeah and to be honest I think I like Mac/Das Keyboard font better even though people worship Cherry font.  :P

However the decide point here is thin ABS vs PBT double shot.  Only drawback is knowing Vortex no one knows when this will come out.

I'm also debating if I should jump into the Raindrop groupbuy or be patient for Vortex.

There hasn't been an update in the last weeks

It should take about a month (wild guess) since it's always super long.

Any chance of trying to contact Topre to know if they'd be interested in licensing their keycaps?

Big opportunity with the news that they're stopping production...

Oh wow those look great! I'm having doubts about having ordered a Raindrop Round 2 set now...

Can you cancel orders for that group buy?

I don't know, ask Pacifist.

Much Excite! (but hoping they could be found for less $$$).
Profile looks to be "OEM".

A shame, a little bit in the tall side for my liking. But it is cool to know they developed the molds and process parameters settings to get the PBT flowing inside those small cavities to make DS on PBT feasible, for a small parts as caps.

Well they already had doubleshot PBT caps before they just were all white base with color legends (the legends were italicish....), at least these have color mods and a little different font.

Ah, I see, I was not aware they manufacture PBT DS caps though, my bad, thank you for the heads up: "shut up your mouth out of ignorance!" LOL.  :p

I guess Vortex has to recoup their costs on the new DS legends. Let's just hope the font is even across the board and doesn't have random bold letters like the $33 italic ones.
