Realpoint 106?
« on: Mon, 20 April 2009, 19:07:35 »
In the wiki there's mention of a Topre with some kind of trackpoint. However, the link doesnt lead to any info about it, neither does Google. Does anyone have any pictures or experience with the keyboards?

Can't find anything about that keyboard.  But here's a link to what appears to be a list of known Topre keyboard models, with many having links to further information:

I haven't looked through all of the "106" models in that list, but perhaps one of them is the mythical Realpoint 106.

Sorry to bring this thread up but while digging around in web.archive.org on old Topre sites I found something very interesting
RealPoint keyboard PDF

I was digging around there because I just became aware that they also made another version of the MD01BO I just got that was for a sun spark station that pretty much has a perfect layout. You will not that the RealPoint version of MD01B0 has the sun layout but moved one key for the track point. This is really cool now if I just could find a model number that I can use for a search.
