Uh while I don't have the exact same version, but later down this week I'll write a review on Matias Quiet Pro (PC) vs Matias Tactile Pro (Mac).

The only difference that I know of from the Tactile Pro to Mini Tactile Pro are:

1.  Full Size vs Tenkeyless
2.  Tactile Pro has white paint UNDER clear plastic casing (Give you that see through feel).  Mini Tactile Pro has white paint ON TOP of the plastic casing (So it look like regular paint job).
3.  Tactile Pro has built in cable.  Mini Tactile Pro has removable cable with mini b connector that goes points to the left in an L shape base (Sorta like those space saving cords that you can put between the walls).

So as far as I know everything else is the same.  So unless someone else beat me to it you can wait for my review  :D

Ok thanks. I did read from Matias that the keyswitch on the tactile keyboard doesn't have that ringing sound after hitting the key. I was wondering if you noticed that. Thanks.

Yeah I did notice some "ping" from my Quiet Pro the first few days I got it, but somehow it went away now I don't know how  O____o

And yes it's true what you said, there is no "ping" from the Tactile Pro.  I wonder if it's because the "clack" is louder  :P
