Nope.
use NOIR/SPACE

There are also different colors availible.

Don't fear reading the wiki or the pricelist:
http://deskthority.net/wiki/Round4
http://deskthority.net/wiki/Round4_Pricelist

It depends on the kit, none of them come with a spacebar I belive.

Here is the standard kit: http://deskthority.net/wiki/File:STANDARD.png

They are still available.

NOIR/COMMODOREESC............9
NOIR/COMMODORE125...........21
^^^ Maybe I should include it with the big NOIR/STANDARD kit.

Yes.

You will have to use the handbag logo as Control and the circle as Caps Lock (or shomething else). The advantage of symbols over text is that you can define your own meaning for them in your head!

Killed!

I plan a NORDIC kit for DE, DK, FI, SE, NO.
There will be FR layout but it will cost a bit.

SPH/ALPHACOLEMAK.............1
SPH/COLEMAK..................4
ROUND3/TENKLESSCOLEMAK.......1
ROUND3/TKLCOLEMAK............1
ROUND3/ALPHACOLEMAK..........1
ROUND3/COLEMAK...............2
RETRO/COLEMAK................2

SPH and ROUND3 are the best solutions to get COLEMAK layout.

RETRO/COLEMAK is not recommended, because it could happen that I remove it. Too few orders!

If someone complains, I can still sell this group buy to Ragnorock and then you will not even get a J-shape Return!

Does this mean that things like TKLSE will be removed?
Will this change affect all the styles (RETRO, ROUND3, ....)?

Grats on your second post!


It's not 7Bit's fault if nobody ordered the regular Noir kit. I'm sure you still can get it if you don't mind paying a ****load of money, just ask him.

Also, thanks for your kindness!

Thank you for keeping the FR layout available despite the low number of orders. If figures didn't move I still have two out of the four FR kits ordered in this color scheme (NOIR/ALPHAFR 2), and I'll try to stick as long as possible even if prices increase. Guess I'll try some more advertising on french boards once we know about their price as well.

They are the ugly symbols. You better get ROUND3 style to have text.

well this makes it pointless to order this anymore

guess i will be cancelling pretty soon

the whole point i stayed in this long was for noir/standard with regular looking keys and not the ugly symbols it has changed to. Round 3 are sphericals which are plain useless to me as well.

Risking the wrath of many, dare I ask if the coloured modifiers that were initially offered will be included here as well? Not separately, but with the full set of keys with just the modifiers coloured. I'm sure there are others who would like the set with those keys.

Round 3 style is lie dolch key caps, no sphericals.

The alternative is to cancel Noir which I will not do, because I get more and more orders for it. Also, I can lower the prices a bit.

No color options. There are some RGB group buys, where you could get them.

7bit:

NOIR/TKL does not include the little alien guy?  Seems a little odd because alien guy seems to be included with RETRO/TKL.

[[Also, is the order confirmation bot running behind schedule?  I updated my order a few days ago, but haven't received a confirmation email yet.]]  Never mind - got the email just now. But, damn, I forgot to order the spacebar.

Thanks.

Are these sets basicly Standard/TKL, just without the Alpha keys, F1-F12 and Tenkey?
or is there any other difference?
Would appreciate a layout picture of them ;)

7bit, don't be disheartened by a few tossers here on Geekhack.  I sincerely appreciate all the effort you have put into this Round 4 Group Buy.

I am still holding onto Retro and Round3 orders and some extra keys to customize my 4 keyboards.  If I didn't buy white on black cherry double-shots earlier this year then I would get some Noir.

Just remember for every whinger and complainer here there are plenty more people happy with what they have chosen and are anxiously waiting to paypal you to get their key-sets.

For people interested in the alpha cluster : in case you feel the need to get a backspace key in the same color scheme, you may order some from hk99.biz. Here is the link :
http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?21950-Cherry-Double-Shot-Backspace-and&highlight=backspace

Please note the text is not perfectly aligned but the price is far from theft so that remains interesting overall.
I personally ordered 3, with and without tracking, and had no problem. Efficient service as always from this seller.

I've added it because I'm not so sure if those few orders are sufficient for single langauage kits. It contains keys for NO, SE DK, FI and DE layout.

I've got to make that decision yet.

I think we all do. That being said, it seems that without constant harassment, this GB would probably never end. I mean, how many "end dates" have there been? I remember the first of this month being the "absolute very last end all be all end date." Of course, none of us actually believed that and it seems to be for good reason. We all appreciate the fact that this GB is being run, it's just annoying that some people have been waiting for almost a YEAR, and the order hasn't even been placed yet.
