Title: Rosewill RK-9000, in ISO!
Post by: Calade on Thu, 01 November 2012, 14:48:35
I believe what I have here is one of the first Rosewill RK-9000s in the ISO layout. A Finnish store ordered a bunch of these straight from Rosewill, and at least I couldn't find them from anywhere else in Europe.

It has red switches and I'm loving it! My first mechanical, if you don't count the Model M I used as a child.

Nice, does it have the same price benefit over Filco as in the US? Might want to share the ordering source for the Euro folks if so.

It'a a store called Silent Rig (www.silentrig.com (http://www.silentrig.com)), but I don't think they ship outside Finland. At least not without special request. At the moment they have some Filcos, Tesoros, Qpads, Razers, Zowies, Steelseries and these Rosewills, which are indeed cheaper than the Filcos by over 50€ (94,90€ vs. 146,90€). I'm actually in the process of founding my own web store, which will sell keyboard stuff along with the more traditional components and ship worldwide, and will probably stock these Rosewills. It will take a month or so for me to get my business started, though. Until then, if you're in a terrible hurry, I can act as a proxy of Silent Rig. :)
