My new old SMK-88 Keyboard

--- Quote from: Whiskey in the Jar-o ---Even though the Tactile Pro is aimed at the keyboard connoisseur, I feel that yesterday's styling (as of 1 month ago) may cost them customers. I guess when you are developing Apple accessories, it's hard to predict where Apple will go.

I liked everything about my Apple Wireless keyboard except the way too fluff filled membrane "keyswitches".    This has the same layout (so far as I can tell) and gives me a USB port at my keyboard (which my 9 year old Shuffle owner just loves!), and the tactile feel I really want.  

We'll see, my attitude is evolving and I may not want that footprint by the time they are available.  But....maybe I'd still go that way for the blue switches.

xsphat:
How loud are the switches?

ashort:
I would say...not a lot, but noticeably louder than the black switches in the Cherry 4100s.  more play in the keys and a longer keystroke probably account for all of the difference.
