the keycaps of this batch are abs.... there might not get the black engraved ones.
I'll regret this if I don't do this and I'll regret it if I do.
1x Cherry MX Red (preferably in white w/ blank keys)

Imsto -- As you receive updates on the availability, I think it would be helpful to the members to know what sorts of options (outside of the Cherry switch) are available.
For example, you mentioned that they may or may not have engraved keyset available. I also noticed someone looking for blank keys. Just a suggestion, but I'm sure many of the members here would appreciate that.
The keycap ordeal is impacting most of my decision.
ESC key problems
I need my escape key, but by default this is the ` key on the Poker and Fn + ` is ESC. You can toggle that with Fn + Q, so by default it becomes ESC, and Fn + ESC becomes `. This last step doesn’t work as documented though. It returns an ESC key code for me as well. I can easily solve this with software (toggle ` and ESC), but I find this a serious bug. I asked KBC about this and I think they are working to have it fixed for the retail version.
the end of this month.
there would be the plate options, but I think it will take a few weeks even months.
Just to be clear, this group buy is going to be of the PCB-mounted switch options only? I am interested in the PCB-mounted switch keyboards myself, but you should probably post in the first post about all the possible options you guys are offering with this keyboard, and what you're taking orders for. Especially options like is there going to be a white colored Poker available, and if it is, what key caps does it have.
I'm not criticizing, but if there are no clear options on what to order, people are going to order products that might not exist.
I predict these Pokers will end up like the Duckys and Noppoos. People will use them for a little while, then get bored, sell them and buy a Leopold or Filco.

I'm still not bored with either Ducky or Noppoo. Maybe I'm just weird.
Not much of a market these days for OCN Duckys anyway if you can buy a tenkeyless Leopold for $99 or a Rosewill for $70 with free shipping.
wait you get an e-mail?
i am getting tired for having a reply of them..
i would do the europe distribution GARRRRR>.
which person did you e-mail?
or did you just use the forum... which seems most possible :P
No harsh words, but let me break it up for you. A distributor is someone who invests a capital of money (in this case in the range of several thousand dollars) into buying a stock of the requested item and then distributing it in their country. To do this legally in the EU, you will also have to be running a business and depending on the quantity, also charge and pay taxes and VAT.
Now lets move on, you are a 14 year old kid who is after free keyboards. I think you can figure out the rest on your own.
hey guys, there's only white on balck abs version this time.
That is a nice tasteful watermark that Sixty has there on that pic but he spelled authority wrong.

And I promised ItlnStln not to rag on DIP switches after he did the DIP wiki.
Oh well, this once.Show Image(http://geekhack.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=15863&stc=1&d=1299464646)
Correct. The USB connector being flimsy isn't.

Yep, count me out for now then, I'll hold out for exactly the one I want.
It's rude. KBC is a small hobbyist driven group so I wish them luck.
Runazn posts have stumped many a great mind.
imsto, do you know anything about those aluminum cases that are being leaked for the poker??
I don't want to deviate from topic but can someone who got to try the keyboard confirm it doesn't play up on Mac OSX because of the NKRO?
I'm changing my order to 1 x Cherry blues, white on black keycaps to reflect the availability.
leaked ? Where ? Lemmeseeitplzkthanx!
[edit]
found it!Show Image(http://deskthority.net/download/file.php?id=304)
ooohhhh, those metal cases are sexy. Imsto, do you think that could be an upgrade?
for some reason, this group buy is canceled.
Thanks for all. I am very sorry.
what the sh!t?!?!?! :(
Perhaps they got fed up with the complaining, angry westerners who never had too much nice things to say. Also the people who were just spamming these group buy topics.
Might also be that the supply just isn't enough for everyone so they prioritize the Chinese buyers. Might be a thousand good reasons why this was cancelled.
Don't hate. Your wallet didn't get any lighter.
Don't give up hope. I am working on facilitating the purchase of these 'boards (for North America). The aluminum case may be an option as well.
Okay, so there should be distribution for Europe and US both separately. That's good enough for me. I just hope we can meet the MOQ for the European distribution since it seems a lot of people aren't really interested in the ANSI layout.
I prefer the ANSI layout anytime.
