Access-IS AKEATUA307 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Access-IS-Keyboard-POS-with-Card-Swipe-USB-/251172358157?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a7b0a080d). Nice plate mounted ansi with MX blacks and SP doubleshot. Also has interesting trackpoint implementation. Sadly the card reader makes it rather ugly, maybe a custom case candidate?
$25 BIN w/ $14 shipping US.
-
Cool way to put in a trackpoint for sure! I want to get a card reader at some point for random impulse buys. Heh.
-
I rather like the card reader. Are we sure this keyboard is cherry MX, though?
-
I've never seen an Access that isn't, and those are clearly SP keycaps... if in doubt, contact the seller.
-
I want those caps
-
Bought. Interested in the trackpoint on this. A question: would I be able to use Cherry Tools on any Cherry board to modify things?
-
Access has their own utility softprog (http://www.access-is.com/softprog.php). I am not sure if this board is support full programmable or not.
-
^Thanks a lot, lysol. You're always knowledgable and helpful! I hope I can do some cool things with this board.
-
"We do not ship to international addresses." meh.
-
you americans should get these while you can, really solid boards and hardware programmable!

+1 on this. Great for playing with layouts. Interested to see if the trackpoint is any good.
-
It's only great if you have a PS2 port, though.
I'm really happy of the build quality of my two access boards. I think they have NKRO even.
-
Agreed on ps2 port (needed for programming).
Nkro over ps2, 5 nkro if you use a blue cube.
-
This is usb model.

Got this thing today. I'm having trouble figuring out which layout I should be using in softprog...
-
Did you figure it out? There is a templates package at the bottom of the softprog page. You should download and install the files if not.

I didn't. I haven't looked at it since (long weekend...). I did download those, but they are all included if you check the right boxes, so nothing there. I was looking for a regular 104 key layout, but they closest the have is a layout similar to the G80-1800...

At the airport today, I noticed that United was using these at their gates in Charlotte. I complimented the employee on his keyboard.
I recognized it by the trackpoint.
I notice it has the NKRO diodes like all the Access keyboards I've seen. Pretty sweet deal, if we can get the layout working in softprog.

What did he say? I would've had a full on discussion about mechanicals right then and there, but I don't work at a terminal, or at all for that matter... >.<

I've seen them in Kastrup Lufthavn ( Copenhagen Airport ) ..
They almost called security when I asked to see it up close !
The people who use these boards in their profession generally don't know just how good their tool is !!
I've also seen Cherry-boards with BLACK, DANISH!!, Double-shots in a few banks ..
They to don't know what to say when I ask to see the back-label of their keyboard !
-
Ha Peter, I can imagine it now... walk into bank... this is a hold up, put the keyboards into this sack! Surely the insanity defense would be a lock when arrested.

Yeah, 'fetishism' is a psychiatric diagnosis !
