And will there ever be a hardware programmable version? Want to define the layers myself! (german ISO of course! =)

NormaJean · « **Reply #12 on:** Thu, 19 January 2012, 11:48:40 »

I love it, any ideas on the pricing for that board?

ktkr · « **Reply #13 on:** Thu, 19 January 2012, 12:37:00 »

Wow. I want this.

sordna · « **Reply #14 on:** Thu, 19 January 2012, 12:37:37 »

Programmable version is a MUST HAVE. You'll drive HHKB out of business! Vortex, are you aware the very cheap Rapoo v7 is programmable? Any chance you can offer user-programmability?

The_Beast · « **Reply #16 on:** Thu, 19 January 2012, 14:31:48 »

Purple LED's are pretty damn boss

IvanIvanovich · « **Reply #17 on:** Thu, 19 January 2012, 14:34:05 »

Program-ability would make me buy one for sure. I have 2 Pokers, and it is way too similar otherwise. It does look nice though.

Are you guys going to release a tenkeyless with LEDs? I'm pretty sure the whole world has been waiting for this.

Playtrumpet · « **Reply #20 on:** Thu, 19 January 2012, 21:10:11 »

I want this so hard.

lightsout714 · « **Reply #24 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 11:16:57 »

Looks sweet. Aluminum case with PBT's. Not concerned about LEDs. Any ideas on price?

dreamingftw · « **Reply #25 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 11:55:00 »

Also interested but I'm scared to hear how much it will cost :ohwell:

mkawa · « **Reply #26 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 12:22:27 »

if you want a cheap keyboard you have plenty of choices. the rest of us freaks want **** that's shiny and cool, damn the torpedoes

kaiserreich · « **Reply #27 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 12:52:21 »

The anniversary edition sold for $4399 Taiwan Dollar (150 USD)
iMav's group buy price is a good indication of how much the price difference will be, IMHO.

Disposable Hero · « **Reply #28 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 15:08:32 »

Would be ineteresting to take a poll on LED's vs no LED's.....personaly as a gamer I would never buy a keyboard anymore without LEDs as I like to play in my office with the lights turned down. I have a green KBC Race but that purple is pretty slick. I agree a lit tenkeyless is what is really needed in the market.

GeorgeStorm · « **Reply #29 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 15:11:00 »

I still wish a company would make a keyboard where the LEDS lit up when the key was pressed, would look awesome methinks.

443330 · « **Reply #30 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 18:31:48 »

I will never understand why there is a need for LED's everywhere..

Disposable Hero · « **Reply #31 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 18:36:41 »

but how would you see it if your finger was on it lol?

443330 · « **Reply #32 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 18:38:13 »

Light leaking around the base of the keycap. Soon I'm going to be placing LED's on my toilet seat as well.

REVENGE · « **Reply #33 on:** Fri, 20 January 2012, 18:39:03 »

Programmable or bust.

So when someone walks into your room when you have all the lights off, you look super cool with your glowing keyboard, computer case and monitor.

They just look nice.

Vortex, do you have a price estimate? I would hate to wait a few months only to find out it's too much. I can only allow myself a certain budget for keyboards, so I need to start planning.

443330 · « **Reply #39 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 04:05:08 »

Yes! LEDs just cheer me up. I keep LED Christmas lights up year round on my ceilings in case I am feeling particularly awful. LEDs = instant fest. Depressing windowless office + LED keyboard = party time.

hazeluff · « **Reply #42 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 07:34:28 »

LED just make some people happy. = )

laffindude · « **Reply #43 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 09:33:59 »

If the Race's price is any indication, it would probably land around 150 dollars. It is a little spendy, but this was originally conceived as a limited anniversary edition for KBTalking. I guess not so limited anymore.

don't forget the aluminum case. probably 170 for the LED version by the time it gets here

laffindude · « **Reply #46 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 10:45:04 »

Not forgetting. Pure anniversary is aluminum + LED + MX red. Regular edition is only 1800-2000 NTD (~55-60USD), and 2600 for MX reds.

mkawa · « **Reply #47 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 11:01:52 »

woah, the regular aluminum + blue/black/brown will only be 60$? this is somewhat shocking to me, but i'll be overjoyed if it's true. heck, i'll be able to buy a second just for the case to work on my teensy based trackpoint variant

lightsout714 · « **Reply #48 on:** Sat, 21 January 2012, 11:06:17 »

That seems way too low. The regular version with abs caps is $82 before shipping from Qtan. With PBT's its $104. Or am I missing something?

No regular aluminum. It is plastic.
