Title: Greetings from Switzerland
Post by: Poom on Tue, 19 February 2013, 08:58:34
Hi everyone, My name is Poom, I live in Basel, Switzerland. Im currectly at work, supposed to be working but instead i'm browsing around geekhack, then I decided to join, hopefully I can get some ideas and opions about my new target!!

I do have a bit of experience on mechanical keyboards, own and owned: filco ninja TKL brown, filco mejestouch 2 blue, filco ninja fullsize brown, 2x IBM model M one from the 80s and one from the 90s and lastly a Leopold TKL PBT keycaps with Red switches.

Anyway the one keyboard I would like to bring up is the KBTalking Pro, specifically the yet to be released V1.1, does anybody have any experience with them? with all the iPads, and iPhones and ipots and ipans, I reckon it would be a great idea to have one keyboard for all these devices.

Looking forward to hear you all's thoughts and suggestions.

have a great day, Poom

I'd figure that you would just have to pay extra, it being international shipping an all. Group buys are simple, with nothing really to worry about (unless everyone paid 2 months ago and you haven't heard anything from the guy about production)
