Cherry G84-4100 PPAGB review (Cherry ML low-profile)

[chyros]

Something small this time, hope you enjoy it!

just got one (typing on it now)

reminds me of my old netbook (kinda liked the size back in the day)

taking abit of getting used to but all new layouts are.

only thing i'm missing is the win key. wish there was a way to flash the firmware. i'd be happy with modifying the function layer and add it Fn+w or something. i use the win key alot to pull up applications.

I have so few boards with winkeys that I just bind it to F9, which is useless anyway .

forgive my ignorance but how would one go about that on the m84-4100? is there software to do it like the TMK firmware that i use for my teensy boards?

[mrbishop]

found an app (sharpkeys) that lets you modify your keymap.

[chyros]

Yes, that's what I use as well .

NICE

ive also noticed the FN layer is abit strange when trying to use that app so as you suggested i just set it to plain old F9

thanks again. you've made this nice little 25$ ebay find that much more useful
going to make it my daily driver on my surface pro 2

its fecking useless

what is? the keyboard or the software?

and i beg to differ on both accounts as i'm using both as we speak.
