Title: Invite to Unboxings Uploaded
Post by: Keylamity on Sat, 19 March 2011, 22:46:28

Hey gang, for those of you who like that sort of thing, I video'd my unboxings and a few typing vids of the new keys in action and uploaded them to Youtube as Desktop2011.  Here's links to a few samples;

Unicomp 104 Spacesaver Unboxing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfTF8uCKRx0)
Realforce Topre 103U-UW Part 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWht5tE0HpM&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL)
Realforce Topre 103U-UW Part 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbGq46CdWu8&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL)

Thanks for those vids!  I too now have my own 103U-UW...But haven't unboxed it yet.  I'm still testing my Unicomp 104 Space Saver.  I have the same color as you.  I love this board.  This will be my main board for now.  I looked at Topre for "writing".  Is your 86U for "writing"?

I have a Unicomp Spacesaver too. It's otaku though. (Black blank)
I really like it, it's my main keyboard because it's my work board.

You're welcome.  Yep....the focus at home is on getting words out and the count up, not numbers so much. So tenkeyless is perfect.  And a lot more mousing around, so it's nice having it just a little straighter up the desk than having to reach that extra bit.

To experience shrinkage, just dip your full size Realforce in water and ta da! tenkeyless.

(just kidding...do NOT put a Realforce in water....ever.)

I'm curious, where in Canada are you? And how much were the duties/taxes from EK?

Thanks.
