Title: Topre Keychain
Post by: sixty on Thu, 17 June 2010, 10:47:05

All pictures taken from Scarface's blog (http://cafe.naver.com/sfkey).

These keychains were given away to the first 200 people to test the Realforce at "IT Rental Room" in Akihabara Isamiya about a month ago. To get one you had to fill out a survey after testing the Realforce. I don't know how scarface got his hands on a set of both but I am very jealous!

Cool. If you could scrounge up 60 or so of those you could make a working keyboard!

I didn't know they came in green and orange in addition to blue.  Thanks for the addtional pictures.  Realforce should make and sell them.  I've seen some keyboard related things on strapya world, but these I would actually buy.

Thanks to my excellent smooth talking skills and a Japanese fluent friend I managed to score one from a source :redface:

I will be posting here again once they arrive.

Just don't try to carry it onto an airplane, they'll think it's some kind of detonator.  I don't think they will buy the story that you're into keyboards enough to carry a key switch assembly on your keychain.
