What a bargain!  It should come with the legendary red control key though for that price though.  :cool:

Just in case you were looking for information on it, PFU's press release on the board.

edit: also that price is strange because when i heard about it (http://en.akihabaranews.com/98553/peripherals/pfu-improve-its-happy-hacking-keyboard-and-announces-hhkb-type-s?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=pfu-improve-its-happy-hacking-keyboard-and-announces-hhkb-type-s) it had a price of ¥30,000 , which i think if i know how to do math is like, 370 usd some odd dollars, far below that ideal 600 usd pricepoint. but then again, im sure that factors in the cost of importing it

And in white only.

I ordered the black HHKB Pro 2 from elitekeyboards on Wednesday. I'm sure I will be pleased with that model.

$600 is too much for a plastic board with PU inlays in the keys, sorry.
