Ok, so I got news that Ducky will be releasing a limited edition board for the year of the tiger, and it will deviate from the DK-9008 in the following areas:
* The Function keys of the keyboard will use a special switch type
o For the brown DK-9108, the function keys will have Cherry MX Clears under them.
o For the blues, they will have greens.
o For the blacks, they will have greys.
* The keyboard will have a superior quality PCB that's made of (the engineering term slipped my mind), but basically the keyboard PCB will have much more layers than the conventional DK-9008.
* The keycaps will be black-on-black PBT.
Pricing wise it will be about SIngaporean Dollars 225. Basically the same as the current PBT + wrist rest bundle, but without the wrist rest for this one.
Does anyone have more info on this keyboard o_O;
Why does the functions key have a different switch i wonder ? Also whats the difference between the clears and the browns :/ ?
And wtf are greens and greys o_O; (don't think they mentioned in the GH wiki)
PS: Seems they updated their site with an English version at my advise :D Good idea.

And what the hell do they mean by a better pcb ?? o_O; do they mean their switching from plate mounted to pcb mounted or something. Are they saying theres a defect in the dk-9008 ? And how exactly is this better pcb going to make a difference i wonder :X
Well. SORT of english. Greens are a riot though. Perfect for annoying people in a 100m radius.
Don't Tigers eat Pandas?
Welll... Chinglish... but still a big improvement. The flash still has chinese wordings, but the PBT is pretty understandable that they have a kb with them :X hehe.

my wants!
Only real reason is the increased PCB quality and PBT BoB keycaps.
My BoB ducky 9008 is nice, this one sounds even nicer!

Walrus from Vrzone is considering doing an MO for this new ducky keyboard. So it's best if you communicate your interest there.
I only posted here because i thought more experienced users would have something to say about it :X
There doesn't seem to be any pictures :/ which is a disappointment.
