Ziotek Blue Cube @ Cyberguys - not what I expected
« on: Tue, 23 December 2014, 23:40:36 »
I'm not sure where this belongs, so sorry if it's in the wrong place.

Last week the Blue Cubes came back in stock at Amazon (sold by Cyberguys), and I ordered two of them.

Package came today, got these instead:



Which look exactly like these. Reviews look alright, it has two ports, and the form factor is better, so I'll probably keep them, but my point is - don't order a Blue Cube right now from Cyberguys and expect to get a blue cube-shaped adapter.

Edit: typing this edit out on my Model M right now, adapter works just fine.

it looks a lot cuter than before  :p

 think the new design is definitely an improvement. the old form factor was harder to use and more clunky
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

If you paid Bluecube price for those adapters, you saved about $4 off their marked price...
