Hi,

Are you chaps able to get hold of a Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless with Brown switches on a UK layout (ISO?), if such a thing actually exists that is!

Hi 8<

I do have definite plans to introduce ISO style Tenkeyless but I don't see much being available before Christmas. It is on the back burner while we are trying to 'fill out' the full size offerings. I want to make some European layouts first.

Now that the European layouts are available when will the Filco Tenkeyless in UK layout be available and will there be switch options? The one I hope to buy is the blue switch version if.........................

Hi Binty.

Yep, things are moving along.
I still don't have a firm date but February looks realistic in a provisional sort of way.
I know everyone is keen to get on with it, but there is some work involved in making new layouts, which is under way.
We're doing UK, French, German and Swede/Fin in the first batch and there will be Blues, Blacks and Browns.
So it'll be worth the wait!

Hello,

I'd also be interested in a Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless with Brown switches with UK, DE, Scandinavian or basically any other layout than US.

A Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless with German layout!?! If this is a dream, don't wake me! x__X
As soon as it's out I'm definitely going to order one with blues!

(I guess there is going to be an announcement here before they arrive, right? ^_^)

Sign me up on a Filco tenkeyless with a UK layout and blue switches.

I can hardly wait. G80-3000 takes up too much room :D

Hi!

I spent all night searching for a non numeric keypad standard keyboard and I'm very happy as this is exactly what I need.
It would be great if I could buy a tenkeyless with a Portuguese (Portugal) layout!!!

I don't know, I think it will be the same as on USA models.

Welcome to Geekhack Deathmouse and Garry.
Still on schedule for February but no Portuguese I'm afraid. Might be some time for that.

I've been looking around for a nice mechanical keyboard, if you can get hold of a UK Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless, I'll be well happy. Not sure which key switches yet, brow, but I kind of want all black keys, with a red escape, and blue WASD.

Brown switches, please. Would like all black keys, except a funky red escape key and the blue WASD since I'm a massive gimp.

If someone would remove my first post, that'd be lovely. Ta

Welcome to Geekhack and thanks for your enquiry.
Around about February I would hope to have all this in stock.
Will be one nice keyboard.

Hi all,

Since the french version will not be available with brown switchs: Did the uk layout have the exact same buttons ? Only the print on buttons is different ?

The french layout looks to be standard ISO so the keys are exactly the same size as the UK ISO layout. The printing is the only difference.

I very interested about Swe/Fin layout. Tenkeyless with blue switches...
I`m little worried about that I don`t like it (which is infinitely improbable). So, is it possible to change it or what is your policy on this kind of matters...

We will have the French models any day, if you place an order you will be at the front of the queue.

The European distance selling directive gives European customers the right to 14 days 'cooling off' during which time you may return your purchase for a full refund. We like you to cover return postage but I am happy to extend this to all of our customers wherever they might be.

I would like to do so (order a tactile action french tenkeyless), but there is only the linear action on the site.

I changed my mind a bit and just ordered a UK 105 Majestouch, Red WASD, Red Escape, and the Key Remover.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I just noticed my address is unconfirmed on Paypal, it's my work address.

-edit-

Just noticed Bruce responding to my 105 Request. Thanks!

Thanks guys. Very good keyboard, though not quite as quiet as I thought, but overall a fantastic bit of kit. If someone breaks in to my house ever, I'll probably lamp them with the non keyed side, because it's nicely weighty!

Love it, thanks.
