Title: Mechanical keyboard with "Choc mini/Keycool84-looking" ISO layout?
Post by: miklen on Thu, 10 January 2013, 02:33:33

Hi guys  :),


I am looking for a new mechanical keyboard with a compact layout.
I really like the keyboard layout of the Noppoo Choc Mini and Keycool 84-key, but I can't seem to find any with ISO layout.
One of the main features I like about this layout is, that there is no gap between the number keys and the F-keys, which I find very convenient in many games I play (WoW/HoN/Dota/LoL etc.).

I have searched for, I don't know how many hours, on the interwebs, trying to find a keyboard like the Noppoo Choc Mini or Keycool 84-key with ISO layout without any luck.
I have tried to write to different keyboard companies (Noppoo, Keycool, Vortex Keyboards) and asked if they were having these keyboards in ISO layout, but no luck.

Am I missing some companies or can it be true that no one makes keyboards like this in ISO layout?

I have made this in Photoshop to show what I am looking for:

Compact keyboard with Danish ISO layout.

This layout I made is the ideal "dream keyboard" for me  :).


Hope you can help.

Thanks.

Ortek MCK-84 is similar. Very hard to get though.
