Title: Do I have this right? DK-9000 for <$55?
Post by: dotancohen on Tue, 03 May 2011, 05:14:47

As seen here:
http://global.pchome.com.tw/?mod=item&func=exhibit&IT_NO=DCAD80-A45363779&c=A05&tm=u

If the exchange rate is 1/48 then that's under $55! According to Google Translate they only have the Chinese keyboard available but that's fine, I usually paint or sand my keys to black anyway!

Can someone confirm what switch is in there (the pics look like Cherry browns) and that I'm reading the price correctly? Also, how does one order from the site? Two browser windows, one in Google Translate?

Thanks!

Its Taiwan Dollar, not Chinese Yuan. The price is a bit over $90

That is still pretty decent. I understand that some geekhack members order from that site (there are lots of links here). How does one do that? Do you call them?
