hi, i'm new here. i was in the market for a new keyboard and stumbled upon this amazingly crazy site.
it has caused me great pain trying to figure out exactly what type of switch i want in my keyboard, and i'm about to purchase the 10 keyless filco brown cherry while i'm here in korea. (the pain came after i found the site, i was set on a 7g till i read the hate on the cherry blacks =p) then waffled on the linear and nonclick. man those names in korean had me confused..
however, what i'm curious about is this filco zero.
i have been unable to procure any information on this in english. only on the korean site from which i am purchasing the 10 keyless filco majestouch. and on a japanese site that says click something something zero.
http://www.aijoarashop.com/FrontStore/iGoodsView.phtml?iCategoryId=8&iCategoryIdMain=0&iGoodsId=0008_00009&iCurrentPage=1http://item.rakuten.co.jp/filco/c/0000000203/it claims that it uses a alps type switch. i had the pleasure of typing on it a bit, and it seems to be very clicky and a bit noisy as well. however i enjoyed the definitive tactile feedback that it gave.
as i put in an order for 10 keyless, i might be committed to purchasing it, but as the zero is only ~66 usd it seems to be a decent backup keyboard to purchase.
i am unsure if it's an actual alps white, or if it's an alps "type" switch. but the picture shows white stems.
if anyone has any information i would greatly appreciate it.
i have enjoyed reading about all these other keyboards, if i get a chance i mite try out a hhkb or a unicomp one of these days based on the reviews i read.
i never knew i had so many typing options. xD
i'm just shocked that there was a forum for this. pleasantly.
many thanks
