i know that what lambition says is warring, but mine is ok, really it's ok, not excellent but quite satisfactory. i opened it and the pcb looked as it should be - nothing like what's shown on the pictures.. i guess that the quality control has been at vacation for his batch...

I really like the blues... I can't imagine any lighter feedback being at all satisfying.
But, then again, I haven't touched the browns yet. :)
karlito:
cherry blues feel fine but the noise kills me (i only use my blue cherries when playing games so i cannot hear the keys).
I had an M10 for about a week and a half and had no problems at all. I also took it apart and the construction was fine. I think that dude just got a dud or two (but who's to say you wont?).
I really want to get that Filco xsphat bought but $165 for a keyboard i know i wont like (because of the numpad) is just too much. If only they made a model w/out the numpad and/or the arrow keys. I mean really numpad has arrow keys and pg up/pg dn wtf is w/ all the redundancy!?!? ARGHHH
zerogravitas:
They do make a "mini" FKB100M/JB that may have the brown cherries, but it has japanese characters and extra modifier keys which may or may not be a problem. It still has a numpad too. :)

Karlito, it's not like the Filco is a B-52 like the Model M:
It's the same size as just the keys on the Model M!
For another size reference:
With the M it was like the mouse was in a different county. The Filco isn't really a bad size at all.
