This will be my second of his cable, but first usb cord since my other a cable was for my Ergodox, so I gave it with my ErgoDox

pulled the trigger on a second FC660C, should be on it's way by now freaking love that, need a second one for work, can't be arsed to carry one around every day.

also, ebayed jaybird bluebuds X, fed up with the cords

oh, let me know how you like those jaybirds. i've been eyeing them lately

I have a set, and I really like them. It takes some time to get the fit right. I would not compare them to any high end set, but for Bluetooth they are the best I've used so far.

good to know, they're a bit pricey so i want to see if they're worth it before i take the plunge.

sure thing.....i can only compare them to creative EP-830 which i am using at the moment. i listen to drum and bass almost exclusively, so i'll see how that goes

awesome! im mostly a rap fan, so im a fan of bass.

White keys for my new black HHKB, so it will look like this when it's done:

[exitfire401]

Just got word that my feet from GON for my Kingsaver are getting ready to be shipped!

[MythicalWagyu]

mmm delicious olivetti

[Ludovician]

Repeatedly checking the tracking number of my HHKB. It's in Tokyo right now.

[gabbo01]

After reading way too many forum posts , and watching way too many sound tests/video reviews; the HHKB Type-S is on it's way to me via Rakuten and Tenso.  Typing this on my first mech; a daskeyboard pro with volume controls with blues.

Did I buy an over-praised board that's entirely too costly due to its exclusivity and looks? Time will well.

I'm always wary of forums based on one product, sometimes an average product dominates the conversation (happens to AT M50s in headphone forums I frequent).

Either way I'm excited! This place tends to give good info.

Did you get it via Tenso/Rakuten too? Should be no shipping costs to us in Australia with their current deal.

Congrats on your new board.    I am typing this on my Type-S right now, and I can happily say I haven't once regretted the purchase!

[Ludovician]

Hello, fellow aussie!

I'm not sure what that is. I got mine off ebay for $351 AUD with free shipping, though. I googled Rakuten and their prices look a bit cheaper. Bit late to have a problem with that now. Anyway, mine should be arriving by the end of the week.

Also, mine is the non-silent version. Didn't seem right to spend an extra $100 or so just on that.

My switches finally cleared after 5 days yesterday...at least I should have them this week for internal swaps

Mine is type-s non printed caps for $323 AUD with a $10 forwarding fee with free shipping (tenso are a forwarding service with 3000 yen discount on shipping until the 18th, which is free for us).

http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/pfudirect/item/10000027/?s-id=borderless_recommend_item_en link if anyone is interested. Japan one of the few places we can get decent shipping prices down under.


They don't appear to have the non type S without bundled in enebrick, so you didn't pay that much extra. Honestly I wouldn't pay more than 20-30 for the silenced version, those ebayers really hike up the type-s prices.

[Ludovician]

.... Well, that exists.

I would have taken the S if I had known the option was there without paying too much extra (or in this case, it was cheaper than my non-S)

I mention it in the post you quoted 

Does anyone know about the various shipping method tenso uses? EMS looks like a no-brainer right? It appears quicker, cheaper and comes insured.

Just hit myself in the head for that one... lol sorry, it turns out sometimes I don't read )
I'll be choosing EMS, it's the quickest as you mentioned.

Guess it's time to mention it... I have a Type- S on the way woo!

Thanks flyersfan!!!!!!!! :D hahaha... it struck me sooner than I'd expected.
I realized it costs the same as my HHKB Pro2 at EK.com, so why not try it 
I may end up selling my original HHKB (about 1 month's usage), but we'll see!

Having used a stock, dental-banded, and now a Type-S HHKB, I like the latter the best of all. With the extra HHKB caps I ordered, proxy fees, and EMS shipping (4 days to get to my local PO from Tokyo), I saved more than $50 over ordering the exact same gear from EK.

I think you'll really like the Type-S when you get it.

[Sygaldry]

This is what I've been trying to tell everyone since last year but people still keep buying the regular model (or God forbid, the Type-S for 350) from EK or choosing the FC660C over the HHKB (thinking the HHKB costs 100+ than the FC660C)... Sigh.

Yeah! Actually, I've been meaning to thank you for that Sygaldry, your post is where I first learned of Tenso last year. Really helpful!
Unfortunately, it said that the promotion was over and I could not try it. It's finally come back now
