It has been quite a while- the longest gap yet.

I got a kinda newish one up on ebay right now if you are into rat pee covered boxes ;)

I'm thinking I need to add mini to the title though. Rawr.

Asked them and they said they didn't have machines to make them...

This was bound to happen sooner or later.
And of course, I didn't pick one up when I could've.
Just thinking about it.. it makes me a saaaaaad panda :(((

So what's the real deal here? Were they bought by IBM/Lexmark/Unicomp/Maxiswitch employees? If so, how many are left unused? 100? 500? 5000? No one knows?
it's tough to find these things! I'm not "in the loop", keyboard industry-wise... maybe that's the problem?
For all I know the supply is actually exhausted for realz this time ;_;
Anyway, hope that's not the case. Thanks in advance.
