Hey all,
I recently ordered a Happy hacking Keyboard Lite off Amazon Market Place. It was supposed to be a Happy Hacking Lite 2, but turned out to be the old one ( yay! ) which seems to be almost identical to a old pro.
I really like it so far. I do quite a bit of programing and I have been bringing it to work instead of my kenesis advantage. I wish it had better portable key-remapping capabilities but in terms of footprint, over all portability, and the fact I can "almost" VIM my self around EMACS with the function arrow keys.
However, rubber dome is just not for me. I am thinking about pulling it apart and sticking some cherry browns or blues on it, along with a trackpoint type pointer in the middle.
I was wondering if anyone here had actually worked on a PFU mother board before?
Also, does anyone know where I can get a trackpoint like the one used here or similar?

It looks like it was the MECI stick that was referenced here,

However, it appears they don't make it anymore... does anyone else know where to get anything like this? The wrist swiveling from the keyboard to the mouse is one of my major annoyances, lol.
thanks for reading :)
