By then we'll know if it really has nopoo, and hopefully all the bugs are worked out and so i don't have to pay for shipping.

I'm really liking the look of the keyboard.  Unobtrusive legends, dusty charcoal colour, good compact layout, built-in numberpad.

I just wish I could order one in North America.
Daily drivers are:
Microsoft Natural (the original, and still going strong)
Microsoft Natural Elite

Has anyone found a better way for US residents to buy these yet?

The keyboard I ordered is finally in Obook's hands, after substantial delays. They have revised the freight charge upward because it is too heavy to be sent by air mail. I can't say I'm terribly pleased about that development, but I suppose these are the risks one runs when ordering from China.

The quoted shipping weight is 1.15 kg.

The layout seems great except for one thing. It would be much better if it was del/pause/pgup/pgdn instead of pause/pgup/pgdn/del. Del would be next to backspace instead of far away and pgup/pgdn would be closer to the arrow keys.
