Title: Looking for a keyboard
Post by: JAMM0N on Mon, 27 June 2011, 01:23:43

here's an idea of how what i'm looking for

- if its portable that would be nice. if i have to buy a case for it so BE IT
- has to be very durable yet i dont still understand to concept of MX cherry blue (in all funkiness)
- i type a lot and read a lof of things (sadly from OCN)

so thats pretty much it.

also if anyone can point me in the right direction for which key colors i should choose when working in the dark. sometimes i have my lamp on sometimes i dont and my screens (U2410) which are in portrait give off a lot of light. would prefer without a 10key. but definitely need the FunC keys

thanks everyone. might go with filco just keep hearing you guys saying that or a Topre?

or a Tg3 BL82, FN keys and good in the dark, no ugly fonts, and less eye fatiguing red backligt.

And if used coluld be reasonably cheap (around 50/60$)

The key question is how much $$ are you willing to invest?
